5. Miss Sushi

   

   If you’re craving a sweet ending to your meal, visit Miss Sushi: this restaurant has long been a favourite among dessert connoisseurs. Their cheesecakes and famous chocolate mochi deserve special mention.

   Their traditional Japanese mochi is a soft, slightly elastic dough that wraps a delicate creamy mousse. However, Miss Sushi adds its own twist: their mochi is adapted to European tastes, with less dough, making it lighter and airier. It’s a true bridge between Oriente y Occidente, turning a classic dessert into a gastronomic delight that’s impossible to overlook.

   But what makes Umikobake’s mochi special is its unique concept: Japanese recipes are combined with French style. Here, the mochi dough is topped with a chocolate glaze and a crunchy crumble inspired by classic French desserts.
