Sweet X-O Good Grief Takeshita-dori Store
We went to "Sweet X-O Good Grief", a popular store on Takeshita-dori in Harajuku! The "Baby Tapi" store produced by Shinakochan has a very long line, but this store is not as long as "Baby Tapi" and the waiting time is very short.
Produced by Shinakochan, a very popular TikTok and YouTuber, this is a spot where you can enjoy pop and cute sweets and drinks.
With a colorful menu that looks great on SNS, this store is especially popular among the younger generation.

There are also many other cute and attractive sweets on the popular menu produced by Shinakochan, such as "baby bottle soda," "poochie soft-serve ice cream," and "unicorn tears.
Popular baby bottle soda
The second most popular menu item after cotton candy is a baby bottle-shaped drink! Baby bottle soda.
It comes in light blue, pink, and other colorful liquids and can be customized with soda, calpis, or other contents. The drink is served with a straw inserted into the top of the bottle.
The bottles can be taken home, so you can keep them as a memory, another reason for their popularity!
It is especially popular among young women and students, and it was impressive to see many people taking pictures of the bottles when they were purchased at the store.
There are many options for customization, and the following combinations are available:
- Base drink: soda, calpis
- Color: light blue, pink, purple
- Additional toppings: more sizzling carbonation, less sweetness, etc.
It is fun to enjoy original combinations!

Although we were able to enter the store relatively smoothly on weekdays, there are sometimes lines early on weekends and holidays.
Weekdays are recommended if you want to avoid the crowds, especially since the restaurant is crowded with Shinako's fans and tourists.
