This is not a cake, right?!
It's about 2 kilograms. - 2KG!!
Hey guys this is Cathy Cat. Today I will show you where in Tokyo you can find
the world's biggest cream puff.
For this I travelled to the posh district of Ginza.
The place we're looking for is right next to Ginza's famous Kabuki Theatre.
Hello. - Welcome.
This is foremost a curry restaurant, right? - That's right.
What is your recommend? - Our beef curry.
One beef curry please.
I will get it to you right away.
Looking forward to it...
Thank you for waiting. This is our beef curry.
This looks good!
*sniff sniff* It smells amazing.
The restaurant is very proud of their curry because they have existed
for more than 70 years now.
Their main location is in Kyushu, but many people miss this taste when they come to Tokyo...
So they can find it in Ginza!
Their secret spice recipe is sweet and fruity and the spiciness can also be selected.
I decided to ask the Owner Ms. Sakurai.
Thank you very much for visiting our restaurant today.
What's the speciality of your curry?
The first spoon of our curry will taste sweet.
And then from the second spoon onwards it will get gradually spicier.
From the third spoon you start enjoying the UMAMI flavor.
1..2..3.. the taste changes every time? - Yes that's it.
What's the concept of this restaurant?
This curry restaurant was opened in Nagasaki as curry and cream puff cafe.
Then it came 12 years ago to Tokyo.
For curry and cream puffs? - Yes.
Cream Puffs...? There are some cream puffs on the menu?
The truth is, we do.
I just had this spicy curry, so i'd love to have something sweet afterwards.
It is quite a large portion, is that alright?
I can eat a lot. I love eating sweets a lot, so I think I will be fine.
I see. I will prepare you one cream puff now then.
Yes, thank you.
I can eat a lot.
I love eating sweets a lot, so I think I'll be fine.
Thank you for waiting.
Oh my gosh... It's HUGE!
Holy Moly.
I got too excited I forgot to speak Japanese.
This is quite gigantic. This is still a cream puff right?
It's not a cake, right?
It's bigger than my face!
I will try and just have a bite.
I can't get through. I need more.
I still have't reached the cream yet!
When you said it's a rather large portion, I didn't think it would be this huge.
Really? You have some cute cream on your face.
Thanks for eating this so deliciously.
It's really good.
What's the idea behind this?
This is a cream puff used to surprise others.
About 30 years ago, we had a customer who said
they wanted to give their mum a surprise birthday present.
And that's how this item got created.
It's super heavy.
It's about 2 kilograms. - 2kg!!!
How many people can share this in general?
It can be cut and served to 10-15 people.
Taking it into their hands and eating like this is...
Also a fun way to enjoy it.
This is another way to enjoy it.
If I can't finish this all, what shall I do? - You can take it home with you.
It really is so heavy.
I am curious to find out how it looks inside. Could you cut it?
Of course. Let me do it for you.
Crunch crunch crunch! It's so crunchy!
You actually need a lot of strength for this.
I can hear it crunch a lot.
Oh this is amazing.
There are some fruits inside too. - Yes.
We put strawberries, cranberries and Mangoes inside.
There are 7 different types of food inside.
7 different types of fruits? That's amazing!
Looking inside, there is so much filling.
Yes that's what makes it easier to enjoy. If it was just all cream it would be too filling.
The fruits inside make it more fresh tasting.
Let's try it with cream, crunch and strawberry.
Let's see if I can do it. Let's dig in!
Oh this is so good.
It's not too heavy.... whoops I spoke English again.
The balance between fruits and cream is good, so it's not too sweet which I like.
At this rate, I think I can eat a lot.
Once I started eating, I could not be stopped.
Crispy on the outside, thick and creamy on the inside.
The cream puffs are a rich experience.
You can eat them by hand, have them like cake or
use the crust to dip into the vanilla cream. Enjoy it how you like it.
Dip, crunch, munch, I totally binged out on my huge cream puff.
I thought there was no limit to how many sweets I can eat...
but it seems that this is larger than I thought. I will take it home and share it with friends.
Yes please enjoy it at home.
Thank you so much! It was a feast. - Please come visit us again.
Thank you so much. - Thank you for coming.
It's still so heavy!
On that note, I assume you don't have a cream puff of that size here every day...
how can people actually get one of these giant cream puffs?
Customers are asked to give us a call, and reserve one week in advance.
I shall surprise my friends with that now. - Be sure to do that.
I don't know if you are the same, but having sweets makes me feel so happy
and satisfied. Did you like our sweet hint, how to find the biggest cream puff?
I now want to surprise my friends by taking them to curry and then...
presenting them with a huge dessert.
I am sure they will not expect that.
