Katsuryu, a ramen group based in Ibaraki, is turning its attention to a distinctly summery dessert. From August 4, its “Rich Banana Chocolate” shaved ice will be offered in limited quantities. The combination of a ramen restaurant and a substantial shaved ice makes it an appealing choice for a sweet pause after a meal.

The dessert’s name puts the flavor in plain view: banana and chocolate, with a rich profile rather than a light, fruity finish. While the available information does not describe the exact presentation, it should suit days when a cold dessert with a pronounced sweetness is more tempting than a modest snack. Its seasonal and limited-quantity availability gives it a brief summer character.

Also available is “Kasama Yuki Kuri Mont Blanc,” made generously with Kasama chestnuts. It offers a different direction from the banana-and-chocolate shaved ice, bringing a local ingredient and a chestnut-focused sweetness to the lineup. Visitors can choose according to their mood, whether they want a chilled chocolate dessert or a chestnut treat.

Prices, opening hours, and the specific serving location are not confirmed in the supplied information. Check Katsuryu’s official updates before visiting.
