In Okinawa 'zenzai' isn't warm red-bean soup; it's shaved ice piled high over sweet beans. Senjyu has served it since 1962. Just sweet simmered kintoki beans and fine ice: eat down through the snow and the beans appear at the bottom. Strawberry and milk kintoki are popular too. It's close to Jack's and Steak House 88 Tsuji, so it's the natural dessert after steak.
