Shizuka meets Phoebe Amoroso, a journalist and foodie in Tokyo, for a special surprise: a pairing of Japanese tea and sweets at Senchado in Ginza.

    I think it's a sin for a British person to not like tea and I'm not even from the UK. 😂

    She must be coffee lover.

    I love the mystery in the intro.

    Shizuka with adjectives and descriptive words. So good as always.

    I’m so happy every time I see Shizuka , shes like a sunshine when she smiles ☀️

    Japanese pastries are so light. I never thought about pairing the pastries with tea. I guess I'm just so used to drinking coffee.

    Interesting twist to British cakes and tea pairings by substituting Japanese tea! I love Phoebe's accent.
