Letao Pathos - Otaru

If u are a big fan of cheese cake, u have to come here. Im crazy with letao cheese cake so of course i must try in the first letao shop in japan. The pudding is wonderful, ice cream is perfect or u can also try multi tase and 7 colors ice cream at shop next to letao, its a big ice cream so make sure u can eat all or u have to waste it by throwing away

The desserts here are very nice and the staff here are very caring and kind as well. Desserts are not overly sweet or greasy, but do take note that lunch menu starts at 11 am and ends at 2 pm.

Best cheesecake I've had, although at a steep price (990 Yen). Snacks can be sampled and bought on the 1st floor as well, with long queues of tourists.

LeTAO Double fromage cheese cake instantly became my favourite dessert shop in Hokkaido and is rated Japan’s no.1 cheesecake. So what’s so good about it? It’s super light, not too sweet, smooth and melts in your mouth every bite. I guess the secret to the success of this beautiful creamy dessert is the contribution of Hokkaido milk and cream. Unlike any other country I’ve been too their dairy product is world class. The only negative I have is size price. The full size cheesecake is about 12cmm and will cost you over ¥3000, while one slice will cost you ¥410. Other things they sell include Hokkaido cheese tart ¥350, milk pudding, ice-cream, bread, chocolates and cream cheese langue de chat which I did not personally like compare to the better shiroi koibito langue de chat white Chocolate cookies. The thing I love about japan is there’s plenty of stores that hand you free samplers as you walk into the store, so if you can’t afford one just buy once slice and keep tasting the samplers by the end the trip you will be more than satisfied.

I don't know why you cannot bring the items bought downstairs to eat upstairs even though you are still ordering from the menu. But eating fresh LeTao beats the frozen stuff you get in other countries any day!
