🍤 Highlights & Experience
Visit Experience Report
I visited in the afternoon. I ordered the “Strawberry Zenzai and Tea Set.” It had a refined, not-too-sweet taste with substantial volume, and I was very satisfied.
The interior is a Japanese space reminiscent of Showa. Soba cups and small items are casually displayed, and it’s enjoyable just to look around. The afternoon hours with soft sunlight are especially recommended.
During my stay of about an hour, there were customers reading books, and the atmosphere where everyone could spend their time as they pleased was comfortable.
