Established in 2007, After You has become a go-to destination for those craving delicious desserts, offering a wide variety of menu items that blend Thai flavors with international influences.

Moreover, the visually appealing presentation of the desserts makes them highly photogenic, attracting many customers who want to capture and share their sweet experiences on social media. The menu at After You is constantly evolving, with seasonal specials and limited-time flavors that keep customers coming back for more.
Their signature dessert is the Kakigori (Shaved Ice Desserts) which is After You’s take on the popular Japanese shaved ice dessert, Kakigori, is another crowd favorite. These towering bowls of finely shaved ice come in a variety of flavors, such as Mango Sticky Rice, Thai Tea, Milo Volcano, Hojicha, and Strawberry Cheesecake. Each kakigori is generously topped with flavored syrup, whipped cream, and other toppings, with a hidden surprise of fruit, jelly, or other treats inside the shaved ice.
Their Shibuya Honey Toasts are also popular among visitors. It features thick, fluffy toast with a crispy, golden-brown exterior, generously drizzled with honey and topped with a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream. The toast is cut into bite-sized cubes, making it easy to share, while the combination of warm toast and cold ice cream creates an irresistible contrast in texture and temperature.
We decided to try the Mango Sticky Rice Kakigori. This shaved ice treat takes the classic flavors of Thailand’s famous mango sticky rice and transforms them into an innovative, refreshing, and visually stunning dessert that’s perfect for cooling off in Thailand’s tropical heat.
The finely shaved ice is infused with sweetened coconut milk, giving it a rich, creamy taste that melts in your mouth. The fresh, ripe mango chunks provide a burst of sweetness and juiciness, while the sticky rice hidden inside adds a chewy texture and subtle sweetness, just like the original dish.
The dessert is topped with a drizzle of condensed milk and coconut cream, which enhances the overall flavor and provides a perfect balance of sweetness. The combination of creamy, sweet, fruity, and slightly salty flavors works wonderfully together, making each spoonful an indulgent experience.
A real 10/10 for us, we couldn’t get enough!
The standard portion size is generous, making it perfect for sharing with a friend or two. If you are alone, the baby size would be ideal!
