Japan looks to be the midst of a dessert buffet frenzy, with every imaginable kind of sweet and savory buffet popping up throughout the country. Each is complete with a theme catering to various tastes, from fragrant matcha to extravagant food themed after the fantastical world of Alice in Wonderland.

August 27th marked the arrival of another dessert buffet, this time at the Conrad Tokyo Hotel. Offering an array of delicate, aesthetically refined cakes and food, this weekend-only buffet will transport you to a fairytale world that’s as tasteful as it is tasty.

One of the hotel’s top recommendations is the custard egg tart with nutella, but with gorgeous plates of pistachio cupcakes (decorated with cream roses), creme brulee, spinach bread, grilled vegetables, tapenade, sandwiches, and so much more, it’ll be a conundrum trying to figure out how to eat everything.
