The popular "No-Bake Cheesecake" (650 yen) with homemade sauce

If you visit cafe la BASTILLE, you must try their most popular item, the "No-Bake Cheesecake" (650 yen), which has been loved since the cafe opened in 1991. Its round shape looks like a scoop of ice cream at first glance. The cute, plump form is so appealing... While it looks rich, the first bite reveals a surprisingly light texture. The cheese flavor is deep, yet the mouthfeel is fluffy and smooth. It's delicious on its own, but the sweet and tart blueberry sauce drizzled on top is also fantastic!

The cafe is open until 10 PM, except on Mondays, making it the perfect spot for when you're craving a delicious dessert after a drink.
