Harajuku, the number one spot in Tokyo for shopping, fashion, and…fun snacks! Our friends over at Tokyo Cheapo sent us recommendations for the best treats to try out.
You can find the full details of that list in their awesome article here:

Here are the details of the shops we went to:

1) SWEET XO | Time: 0:56
This shop is mostly popular for their frozen popcorn, very colorful and delicious, but we came for the huge cotton candy they have. Although it was very difficult to eat (because of the humidity and the rain the cotton candy kept melting), the layers of flavors were really delicious, not too sweet, and overall a very exciting treat. Maybe avoid eating it in summer.

2) MARION CREPES | Time: 2:13
Harajuku is THE spot to try out Japanese crepes. What makes them different from normal French crepes? They usually fill it with a ton of toppings, fruits, ice-cream, and roll it in a cone. It’s very sweet but extremely delicious. Marion Crepes has been around since 1976 and is considered to be the number one place to try them out.
