Positive Dream Persons, a nationwide hospitality company that creates excitement, will be selling two types of "adult shaved ice" made with carefully selected ingredients and made using the finest methods from July 2nd to August 31st at ZEN HOUSE, a restaurant on the first basement floor of the Millennium Mitsui Garden Hotel Tokyo, located a one-minute walk from Higashi-Ginza Station in the heart of Tokyo.

"ZEN HOUSE" opened on March 1, 2020, with the concept of "NIPPON food that connects to the next generation," and aims to contribute to the liveliness of the Higashi Ginza area throughout the day, offering breakfast, lunch, dinner and cafe time. However, due to the spread of COVID-19, we decided to shorten our business hours and temporarily close immediately after opening to prevent the spread of the virus. We have resumed partial operations on July 2nd, and will be selling shaved ice, a summer staple, for a limited time from July 2nd until August 31st, providing a refreshing spot in Ginza.
■Two types of "adult shaved ice" made with meticulous attention to ingredients and production methods
"Adult shaved ice" is a luxurious Japanese treat crafted with meticulous attention to ingredients and production methods. The "shaved ice" is made with pure, natural water pumped up from underground in Azumino, Shinshu, where the natural spring water of the majestic Northern Alps is abundant. The ice is topped with a generous sprinkling of "ama-natto," made from plumply cooked dainagon azuki beans from Hokkaido. The shaved ice is garnished with freshly made "warabi mochi" made in-house using domestically produced bracken flour.
[Even sake lovers will love our "Daiginjo Shaved Ice" - enjoy the sweetness of rice and the umami of sake combined with black sesame seeds]
A sophisticated-flavored ice cream made with the Daiginjo sake "Maboroshi" is served on top of fluffy ice shaved ice adorned with plenty of black sesame sauce and sweet azuki beans. Nakao Brewery, founded in 1871, has a unique method of brewing sake using apple yeast that has been cultivated since ancient times. Their specially selected Daiginjo sake "Maboroshi" is characterized by its mellow aroma and refreshing impression. It is an extremely elegant dish. This plate allows you to enjoy a variety of textures, including crispy tuiles made with pure black sesame seeds without any additives, and warabi mochi (bracken-starch dumplings) made with real bracken powder.
Contents: Shaved ice, warabi mochi, tuile (cookie), condensed milk
["Matcha Uji Kintoki" - Enjoy the collaboration of the finest matcha and ice]
The finest matcha from Kitagawa Hanbei Shoten, a Uji tea wholesaler founded in 1864, is freshly roasted and combined with shaved ice. It is topped with matcha ice cream made with fresh milk from cows raised in the fertile soil of the Nobeyama Plateau, located 1,300 meters above sea level at the eastern foot of the Yatsugatake Mountains. Combined with warabi mochi made in-store using domestically produced bracken flour, this is a high-quality Japanese sweet.
Contents: Shaved ice, warabi mochi, condensed milk

The dining room's iconic black plaster counter offers casual dining, where you can enjoy carefully selected sake and shochu from all over Japan, along with snacks that complement the drinks perfectly. It's a great place for a variety of occasions, not just for dining, but also for women traveling alone, those staying at the hotel, or simply enjoying a drink after a meal at another establishment.
