Japanese love the idea for sightseeing and nibbling on snacks while doing so! Known as "tabearuki," literally walking while eating, it's a great way to discover Japanese treats. This time, we introduce a few of our favorites in Harajuku, Tokyo.

CROQUANTCHOU ZAKUZAKU
Zaku Zaku offers a special treat called croquant chou, the first of its kind in Japan.
Basically, stick-shaped cream puffs that are crunchy coated with almonds and filled with cream.
The outer layer is pleasingly crispy (zaku zaku means crunchy) and the soft, creamy custard oozes out with each bite. How about a snack while you go shop?
