Happy Valentine's Day Coffee Lovers,
It wouldn't be a Valentine's Day coffee posts from Japan if we didn't include the Valentine's Special as our first picture.Yes, you guessed it. It's from Starbucks.This time it appears that it coincides with the arrival of spring which is not too far away.
Birthday New Cafe Visit
So last weekend I celebrated my birthday 🎉 and my wife decided to take me out to lunch at a cafe we hadn't visited before.Truth be told,we did try to dine there before but at the time all the tables were taken and we were pressed for time and hungry so we didnt want to wait.However, this time around we had blocked out the time and decided to wait for a space to open up. While waiting we took the opportunity to sample some meat pie from their pastry shop and bakery which is just next to the café.It was a bit cold so we placed our order and waited in the car while they warmed up our meat pies. When they arrived they were nice and warm. We had them while we waited.
The Café Decor and more
This was one of those home cafés in a residential area where the location was also someone's home. It was interesting to see how they used the space. Home, bakery/kitchen, a shop for selling pastry and the Café itself. Seating was available for about 20 people with each section having a different kind of table settup. Tables for two or four as is the case with most cafés.
Our Lunch: (curry and rice, vegetables, soup, cake, strawberries, apple pie and tea with 🍋)
We had tea with lemon slices along with our lunch. Since this particular cafe specialised in pies, our lunch set came with a choice of pies so we tried the apple 🍎 pie 🥧 because we had a bite of the meat pie before😋. We'll definitely be back for more.
Thanks you for joining us on our new cafe experience.
