Specialty Chocolate and Ice Cream Shop “LA EGOIST”

August 2015, “LA EGOIST”, where chocolate and ice cream can be enjoyed with champagne, opened in Minamihorie, Nishi-ku, Osaka.

The store is located in Minamihorie, where there is lots of competition for sweets shops.

There is a show window for chocolate to the front, when entering the shop.

To the left, there is a show window for iced cakes.

To the right, you see ice cream and ice bars.

To the right of that, a line up of iced eclairs.
They all look appetizing.

There are over 20 types of colorful bon bon chocolats.

This is a cute ice cake, shaped like a piggy.

The ice cakes come in different shapes like cubes and can be enjoyed by all ages.

The Sachertorte with champagne in it, also looks enticing.

I would love to try all of them, but this time, I chose some sweets that are also served in the to-stay area, on the second floor.

I chose the Gelatia, which lets you choose as many toppings as you like.

You can put as many cookies, madeleines, financiers, bars of chocolate, castella rusks, croissant rusks, nuts, chocolate etc., on top of the gelato as you want.

This doesn’t look like ice cream anymore…
There is a chestnut ice cream in there, but you can’t see it at all.

They prepared it on the first floor and I moved to the to-stay area on the second floor.

I was surprised by the high quality of the baked sweets, such as the chocolate bar.
The sweets, other than the chocolate and ice cream, are also delicious.

The ice cream was delicious with the baked sweets or on its own.
This is an attractive option for ¥480.

After the Gelatia, I ordered the Champagne Dessert (¥1,000), which you pour champagne over.

It comes with a choice of orange, strawberry, mango or grape flavors. I chose the mango and delighted in this drink for adults, at noon already.

Aside from what I ordered this time, the iced cakes (cut into pieces), which sells out all the time, and the items below, can be ordered to stay.

Croissant French toast

There is a wide array of foods, such as pasta, as well.

Since the concept is to enjoy chocolate and ice cakes with champagne, it is a comfortable space for adults.

Personally, I’m also a fan of being able to use their outlets.

It is the perfect space when you have some time to spare, while you are out for business.

It was delicious. Thank you!

Right now, the Horie area is becoming very alluring with more and more sweets shops opening.
The next time I have to move, I might choose to live here.

One day I’d like to try this: ‘Kanjuku Meron no Tsubo.’

・For those who love ice cream
・For those who love chocolate
・For those looking for a cafe in Osaka with delicious sweets, where you can drink champagne, I recommend “LA EGOIST” , which recently opened in Minamihorie.
