'Human-powered shaved ice' will be cheaper by 50 yen instead of customers providing power by biking



When you go to the stalls for shaved ice, it's normal to shave the ice in front of you, but when you went to Saitama Shintoshin's '

Water Festival & World Festa ' to cool down, the customers provided power by cycling. Instead of doing it, I found a unique shaved ice shop that offers 50 yen cheaper.

You can see how the shaved ice is being shaved by the power of the bicycle from the following movie.

The venue is Saitama Shintoshin. When you get off the station, you will see a strange shaped roof



The venue is Keyaki Hiroba on the left side of the station.



On the way to Keyaki Hiroba, there is also

Saitama Super Arena, which is used for live performances.



Arrived at the entrance of Keyaki Hiroba.



The map of the venue looks like this. Watering is not done in the whole plaza, but only in the designated 'watering area'.



The watering area looks like this. A child in a swimsuit and an adult in a T-shirt are watering each other.

Water is flying around the venue.



The child replenishes water in the pool……



I am playing with a water gun.



I found the word 'ice' in the corner of the venue.



I have a child riding a bicycle in front of the store.



According to the sign, it is a store for 'human power generation bicycle shaved ice'.



People are gathering more and more due to their rarity.



The menu items are ' real strawberry, ' ' black honey milk, ' ' Uji matcha, ' 500 yen including tax, ' melon, ' ' summer mandarin, ' and ' green apple, ' 450 yen including tax, and 50% off if you use a shaved ice to power the bike. Will be.



The bicycle used for power generation is from

Piccolo SPA in Toyama prefecture.



The connected code is...



A mechanism that provides power to the shaved ice machine.



Adults are shy and do not ride bicycles, most of them are children, and shop assistants help children who have difficulty riding.



When you ride a bicycle, the motor of the shaved ice machine operates and the ice is scraped.



The clerk doesn't touch the shaved ice machine, but the ice is gradually shaving.



The movement of the machine depends on the speed at which you ride the bicycle, but the iceberg is completed in about 30 seconds.



If plain white shaved ice is covered with syrup, shaved ice is ready.



Uji matcha is on the left and real strawberry on the right. It's a midsummer day that exceeds 35 degrees, and since it's outdoors, the shaved ice is already melting at the time of provision.



Uji matcha is a dish that uses authentic high-quality matcha. I will eat it immediately before it melts.



The aroma and bitterness of matcha is modest, but you can feel the taste of matcha. The texture is now like a shake, like water with ice particles mixed in, but the taste is 'soft ice texture ~' or 'after all, matcha must have azuki beans'. Rather than talking about that, the moment of exercising lightly and eating cold shaved ice in a situation where you can't stand properly is just a moment of bliss.



In less than 10 minutes, shaved ice turns into a matcha drink.



Authentic strawberry uses authentic syrup made from only strawberry and sugar.



You can check the strawberry seeds. I decided to try it before it melted.



The syrup with a mild sweetness that feels the sourness of strawberry is nice. There is a feeling that the ice has melted and the taste has diminished, but the sour strawberry shaved ice that you eat under the hot, scorching sun is exceptional.



The speed at which Uji matcha and real strawberries melt is unchanged. It may be good to give up eating as shaved ice and drink like a shake or drink.



This man-powered shaved ice machine is also rented out to events, so it seems that you can rent it to a children's association or a small festival in the city. In addition, the owner of this shop is a stone-baked potato shop in winter.
