    Vanilla soft-serve topped with kit-kat
    Deborah M.

    Vanilla soft-serve | 9.5/10 | $3+ - got this one in the smallest size with kit-kat on top. I like how their ice-cream isn't too sweet. the kit-kat went well with the vanilla. Will definitely be going back for another flavour! Interior | 9/10 - the inside was divided in half. one half is for making orders, cakes, etc. the other half is for sitting and enjoying the treat you got!

    Available flavors as of June 2018

    I used to go to the Montreal location frequently, and was so excited to walk by la diperie on Danforth. There's an abundance of flavours and my favourite has always been peppermint chocolate dip with oreo bits. Unfortunately, a mini comes out to $3.30 as their prices have slowly increased over the years. Still worth trying though. Note: the danforth location doesn't have A.C. but the wait isn't too long.

    Decisions Decisions Decisions! La Diperie has such an interesting selection for dippings and toppings. I love that I can even choose the size! Mini Cone for $2 is just perfect as a snack. But finding the perfect combination of dipping and topping (50 cents each) can be a little tricky.I would suggest go with your heart or just pick any as there is never a wrong combination Honey Lavender and Pistachio Matcha and Toasted Hazelnut Even on a cold weather afternoon, the soft serve melted quickly and got a little messy. I really want to take my time to enjoy my treat but ended up have to eat it as fast as I can! Love the concept and the great price point, Highly recommended!

    This was a really fun experience! It's simple, you choose your dip and your toppings and there you have a custom cone for a decent price. I only saw one flavour for ice cream, which might be something to expand. It would be much appreciated by us chocolate lovers. The dips add an element of fun and whimsy to this experience. The honey lavender dip intrigued me but I thought it might be a bit strange, the girls at the counter asked if I wanted to try and it did end up being a bit too lavender-y for me and ended up with the maple fudge. All the dips have either a milk, dark or white chocolate base, and then are flavored. They have over a dozen dip flavours and toppings to choose from so that gets overwhelming for people like me but I can go back dozens of times and get something new which is awesome. The ice cream and cones are great. A cone on its own goes for around $1-$4 and to add a dip it's $1 and toppings are $0.50, so it's fairly reasonable, and the small size is more than enough for dessert. The store is really cute and simple, not a lot of place to sit but there are some chairs outside and benches inside for a quick stop. The girls working there were sweet, there was a line but they were relaxed and patient with the big groups, small children, etc... Would definitely come back for a cone when I'm in the area!

    I find this place just okay. It's plain vanilla ice cream and your choice of dipping and toppings. Although it is cool to add a variety of toppings that you wouldn't necessarily have elsewhere, it doesn't really make up for the fact that the ice cream itself isn't that great/anything special. I wish they had more ice cream flavours. I'd say it's worth it if you're into different dips and toppings, but you definitely don't need to get a big size as most of it will just be the plain vanilla ice cream.

    I love ice cream in the summer time, like loveeeee ice cream. And this is definitely one of, if not, my favourite ice cream spot. If it was any closer to me I'd definitely be a frequent customer. I tried this place in Montreal, where it is originally from, with my cousins and fell in love with the simplicity of the ice cream. It doesn't seem like much when you think of the concept of placing a dip on a soft serve cone but it makes a world of a difference. The dips are amazing, and true to the flavours they are supposed to be adding a nice richness to the wonderful vanilla soft serve. While it would be nice to have different soft serve flavours I think it was wise to let the dip be the star of the show. Also, for an ice cream place this ice cream is cheap & filling. My favourite dip is lemonade, that goes well with the tea biscuit cookies. So bomb. I'm also a fan of the cookies and cream and matcha!!! I really don't think you can go wrong. PS Montreal now has ice cream cookie sandwiches, wow!

    I fell in love with this place a couple weeks ago mainly because of their ice cream (even though the toppings and dip were amazing too and definitely Instagram worthy). I'm not a huge fan of Sweet Jesus ice cream because it's a little too rich and creamy for me. I love McDonalds but sometimes it's too watery or too soft. La Diperie has the perfect balance between the two. On top of that you can customize with a huge range of dips including but not limited to the standard chocolate to matcha to unique flavors such as dark chocolate ginger. And then you can finish it off with an assortment of toppings. I had the matcha dip with oreo topping which was surprisingly a good combination. If you have a hard time deciding they have some already set combinations that you can choose from.

    I've been so excited to try La Diperie with so many pictures on Instagram of Sweet Jesus, which I believe is a pretty similar concept. The shop is so adorable, with turquoise (my favourite colour!) walls and wooden furniture. It was at least 35 degrees outside, so ice cream was a dire need. There are full-length menus in the entrance area, where you can choose your cone size, dip, and topping. I opted for a small with fleur de sel and rainbow sprinkles. I was honestly so full by the end, so I wouldn't go for any of the larger sizes. The service was wonderful. We got a seat on a bench in front of the cashier area, so we were able to watch them make every order. One of the employees looked up at one point and gave me a questioning look with a thumbs up, and that proved to me that customer service was a big aspect here (I of course nodded enthusiastically, ensuring her that we were thoroughly enjoying the ice cream). We stayed for around half an hour on a Friday afternoon, and there was always steady stream of customers. With the size of each order, La Diperie isn't something I would opt for too often, but I loved having a treat on such a hot day.

    Line up on a good day. Let's see how good it is.

    The ice cream is 5-stars in my books. The lack of sophistication of the establishment (no air conditioning), and the lack of a cone holder with a built in tray to save drips to your hands was missing. This in my equal weighting world leaves the establishment with 2.5-stars. Since rounding is necessary...3-stars is all I'll give this joint. Upon getting to the cone, my review had to be adjusted lower, by one more star. The cone was stale. In fact, I had made some "friends" while in line and asked how their cone was. They too expressed the same issue of having stale cones. I am utterly surprised how such an establishment that spends so much energy on the quality of their ice cream fail on a product they just by from a third party vendor. Not sure if I'd return to this location just because of the crazy crowd, but when in Montreal I'll remind myself to compare.

    I really enjoyed trying this spot out. I went in, random weekday afternoon, and decided to get a snack while waiting to meet up with someone on the Danforth. I was honestly just looking for something small and ended up ordering a hot chocolate and a mini cone. I think their mini cones are the cutest things, and perfect. Like for me, I love ice cream and I will take any opportunity to try a new spot out. Sometimes I'm just looking for something small and the mini cone option is a solid pick for me. Anyways will definitely be back. I thoroughly enjoyed what I ordered.

    My new favourite combo at La Diperie: matcha dip with oreo crumble.
    Jay L.

    Spring is around the corner and that means slowly added more visits to La Diperie as the weather gets warmer and warmer. $5 gets you a pretty good ice cream fix in my opinion. That includes getting one of their many flavoured dips and a topping. You can go for the mini-cone if you don't want to over-do it. They added some new ones since the last time I was here like peanut butter and cinnamon flavoured dips. This time I went with a small cup (I always get the cup so it doesn't get messy), the matcha dip (a nice sublime green colour), and the oreo crumble topping. Oh man, I think that combo is going to stay with me for a while because it was delicious!

    This showed up to be one of very few ice cream stores along Danforth so we decided to drop by and give it a try. The store interior runs on a bright baby blue theme which it's really Instagrammable. The menu is written on a huge chalkboard wall and pretty straightforward with a wide variety of options. There are three steps to customize your sweet treat: choose a vanilla ice cream size, then add a dipping, and finalize it with toppings. I got mine dipped in birthday cake flavor and topped with cotton candy while my boyfriend got peanut butter dip and topped with pistachios and almond crumbs. We both got small size but were surprised to see how big they were. The vanilla soft serve itself was alright and it started to melt after less than 5 minutes. I found the my dipping was dominantly sweet rather than tasting like birthday cake; and peanut butter dipping was somewhat weak. The toppings added a good crunch to it but again, really lacked flavor (at least for cotton candy). When I almost reached the cone, the whole piece of harden dipping (& toppings) literally fell off to the ground so it was very messy. If I ever come back, I would like to have just the soft serve and toppings.

    I legit love this place! First I had this was when we were at the taste of the Danforth and I stumbled upon La Diperie. It's not often that you find a good dipped ice cream. They had soooo many flavors. Hubby chose cookies and cream and I had caramel. The ambiance is quaint and cute in a pale blue setting, the staff is so kind and upbeat, they had many dip flavors and let you try them on a piece of waffle cone. If you're on the Danforth, this is a great summer break.

    Tsujiri (Tsujiri Tea Store/Tsujiri Chaho/辻利茶舗) is a Japanese tea spot and bakery of well, Tsujiri…read morethe Kyoto/Uji tea company on Toronto's Dundas and Elizabeth. The company has been in business since 1860 making matcha, hojicha/houjicha and other green teas, and you happen to have this tea and dessert spot here and in multiple cities. (I usually don't get Tsujiri's teas as I have my usuals in Yamamoto and Itou En, but because I see the bad Ohtani/Ootani way too often on the latter's displays as in the one on the Bums obviously, Shouhei [with the good one being Ikue-san who for us non-Japanese residents mostly know her as the voice actress of "Pokemon's" Pikachu], I may have to start getting Tsujiri's more often and Itou En's less often for matcha and houjicha. [I intentionally add the "-san" honorific to the good Ohtani and drop it to the bad Ohtani.] Yes Toronto and Canada, I too wanted the bad Ohtani to go to the Jays, not the Bums, and if you have always wondered why the Dodgers are called that, when the Trolley Dodgers [people dodged incoming trolleys to get to work] and the Giants were still in New York City's Brooklyn and Manhattan respectively until 1958, "New York World-Telegram" cartoonist Willard Mullin back in the day called them that as they didn't win their first and only east coast title until 1955, though the fortunes are the total opposite since they moved out west to Los Angeles and San Francisco.) Just like what I did with my Jirou review, I'll point out what items I see here that are not in my local cafes and vice versa. This will be a good reference section for me should I have the power to return to the city, and it will also give both you Canadians that haven't visited any of their multiple locations yet and international visitors an idea of what to expect. While I sit at multiple spots in my temporary home inserting the usual "Yes guys, the ladies are cute!" statement, I better mention this important note. Do keep in mind that the place, with a simple tea house look, is narrow. There aren't many places to sit at. There are just 2, 3 tables? Right around there. Let me get the item comparison part out of the way. Items I recall seeing here that are not in my local Japanese/Japanese ties cafes/dessert spots (the latter type involves a place I reviewed in Satura, a mainly European cafe at one of my suburbs with Japanese ties, including a partnership with a cafe/bakery in Tokyo)? There are items such as yuzu kakigoori (Japanese shaved ice), shiratama dango, dango parfait, and soft serve ice creams of matcha and houjicha. Items I recall seeing in my usual spots that are not in Tsujiri? Besides the cute decorations (multiple Sanrio characters coming to my mind instantly), the local Japanese bakeries/cafes have items such as kouign amann, "Anpanman" pan, Japanese strawberry short cake, ube matcha latte, and Japanese sodas. The fun part section? Seeing that my K-foodie sis, her friend and I are in a tea shop, a (too) legit (to quit) Japanese tea shop, of course I had to get tea in some form, as I picked the cold houjicha latte. We also had the matcha houjicha soft serve, a daifuku and an order of dango. As expected, the foods and drink are so good. Even my sister's friend said that the place is a perfect 5/5, and my sis likes the place despite not being as fond of Asian cafes or Asian desserts/pastries that aren't Filipino as I am. (She does like European ones like kouign amann though.) The flaws section? Normally, I penalize a cafe a star if it doesn't carry a caffeine free drink as I seriously think about the kids and how I often don't need the insane amount of caffeine, but because Tsujiri is a Japanese green tea company, I can't deduct a point for not having a mugicha. Besides, outside of mugicha, houjicha is a good alternative for kids that are old enough anyway. So, with that said/typed, the only flaw I can think of is the limited parking, but of course, this is Downtown Toronto now. Tsujiri is that good of a tea spot. Though there isn't an ideal parking situation, the place is that good of a spot because of the good tea and food. It may never be my top Japanese cafe (I've known Clover for around 20 years or so), but it is that good never the less. If you're looking for a good cafe/dessert spot in Toronto or in multiple cities in Canada, go to a Tsujiri spot! +/Tsujiri is terrific at being hospitable and flashing dashing foods and drinks, and having multiple locations in the country shows how good the spots have been. -/There's limited parking, but of course, this is Downtown Toronto/whatever Canadian city you're from after all.

    I haven't been back here in a while so I was surprised to see new menu items... I got the matcha…read moreand toasted soy bean latte and HOLY SH*T I think I found my drink for the summer. It's refreshing, matcha forward. And the toasted soybean powder conpliments the matcha very well - I was expecting it to overpower the matcha flavour. Thế syrup was also not too sweet but I do recommend giving this a very thorough stir. Service is still good after 5 years, and the place is great for taking photos of drinks in. Lots of wood elements seen in typical Japanese establishments.
