If you want to enjoy "night ice cream" in Omuta, this is the place to go! Exquisite soft serve ice cream with heaps of toppings
Hello. I am Yorimichi, the owner of the blog "Yorimichi's Fukuoka Introduction," which introduces delicious restaurants in Fukuoka.
The "night ice cream" trend has arrived in Omuta.
What's more, you can even customize it to your liking! I headed to the store full of anticipation.
Opening September 1, 2023! If you want to eat ice cream at night, this is the place to go! Craft soft serve ice cream specialty store "AM-AM" (Omuta City)
Well, we have arrived at Omuta City's "AM-AM". It is located along National Route 208.
Business hours are 19:00-23:00 on weekdays, 13:00-23:00 on Saturdays and holidays (break time 16:00-18:00), and 13:00-22:00 on Sundays (break time 16:00-18:00). There is a parking lot, so you can stop by on your night drive.
It will open on September 1, 2023, in the location of the former shumai and fried chicken shop "Nagamine Seisakusho." You can take photos at the photo spot inside the store, but it is a takeout specialty store.
The store is no longer there, but you can still purchase Nagamine Seisakusho's frozen shumai from the vending machine in front of AM-AM.
Customize and order to your liking!
I would like to visit the AM-AM store right away.
There is a menu just to the right of the entrance, and it seems that you can customize your own meal by choosing your own toppings and sauces.
But when it's your first time, you want to try the recommended food, and you don't know what to choose.
In that case, choose from the "Recommended Crafts" on the menu.
The sauce and toppings are decided in advance, and all you have to do is choose whether you want the soft serve ice cream inside as "Milk Soft Serve" or "Oat Soft Serve." Regardless of the sauce and toppings you choose, the price is 680 yen for "Milk Soft Serve" and 750 yen for "Oat Soft Serve."
"Oat Soft" is a soft serve ice cream made with oat milk, a plant-based milk made from oats. It doesn't contain any dairy products. Amazing!
From your second visit onwards, please feel free to try crafting (customizing) your item.
Choose your base (milk soft serve 480 yen / oat soft serve 550 yen), then choose from five toppings (150 yen each) and six sauces (50 yen each) to create your own unique dish.
By the way, regardless of which ordering method you use, payment is made at the ticket machine.
It's a touch panel, so you can simply follow the instructions to order.
Plenty of toppings and sauces! Exquisite craft soft serve ice cream
Since this was my first time, I ordered two from the "recommended crafts": "Toppings: colorful spray, sauce: chocolate sauce" and "Toppings: mixed nuts, sauce: chocolate & caramel."
For both of our base soft serve drinks, we chose "Milk Soft Serve," which cost 680 yen each.
What's great about this place is that they sprinkle so much toppings on the soft serve ice cream base that it's almost too much.
This is not the end.
From here, they will then inject a generous amount of sauce into the center.
No matter how you look at it, this is a good one.
The mixed nuts topping is also added in generous amounts with great enthusiasm.
I made a big hole right in the middle...
As expected, plenty of sauce is poured in.
The combination this time is chocolate sauce and caramel sauce. It's so luxurious.
And that's it!
It's super cute, but make sure you finish taking photos quickly.
After much thinking, it ended up looking like this (laughs).
The reason it melts so quickly is because it's homemade and doesn't contain any unnecessary food additives.
Of course, the taste is very delicious.
Personally, I thought the combination of caramel and nuts was the best.
Next time I'd like to enjoy customizing it in my own way. If you visit Omuta, please be sure to take a detour. (Text by Yorimitsu)
