Tokyo: Calbee Plus – Potato chips with chocolate and soft serve

Potato chips with Royce chocolate and soft serve, Calbee Plus, Tokyo

Calbee is the company behind some of Japan’s most well known packaged snacks. Potato chips, Jagarico, shrimp crackers. These are everyday snacks you buy in supermarkets and convenience stores. Mass produced, but with a lot of attention to texture, seasoning, and flavors.

Calbee Plus is Calbee’s concept store and snack cafe. Instead of bags on a shelf, you get snacks made to order. Freshly fried potato chips and fries, hot from the fryer, topped with different seasonings, sauces, or limited collaborations. The idea is to take familiar Calbee snacks and show them at their best.

When I stopped by the Calbee Plus store, they were doing a collaboration with the Japanese chocolate brand Royce, which immediately caught my attention. I’ve loved Royce chocolate for years (the dark blue Nama is my favorite), and I’ve honestly never had anything from Royce that wasn’t good, so there was no way around ordering the potato chips with Royce chocolate and soft serve.

Chocolate on potato chips might sound strange, but I'm telling you it's awesome. The salt, the crunch, the rich chocolate, and the cold soft serve on top. I took my photos and then finished the whole thing. Such a fun spot.

Welcome to my Tokyo blog. Tokyo is one of those cities I never get tired of. I've been back many times over the years, and every visit leaves me with a longer list of places I want to try next time. For me, Tokyo has always been about the food. It's the city where I'll happily get up early for a sushi breakfast, where some of the best meals are served at tiny ramen counters with barely enough seats for a handful of people, and where I can spend hours wandering from one café to the next without any real plan. What keeps drawing me back, though, is the atmosphere. Tokyo somehow manages to feel calm and intense at the same time. You can stroll through quiet residential streets lined with small shops and neighborhood cafés, then suddenly find yourself in the middle of Shibuya, surrounded by flashing signs, crowds, and nonstop energy. Those contrasts are part of what makes the city so special, and no matter how often I visit, I always come across somewhere new. On my Tokyo blog, I've gathered the places I've genuinely enjoyed. Restaurants I'd recommend to friends, cafés worth making a detour for, neighborhoods I love exploring, and hotels I'd stay at again. Whether you're planning your first trip to Tokyo or your fifth, I hope you'll find plenty of inspiration, along with practical tips to help you make the most of your visit.
