ランチの時に入りました!店内の雰囲気がとても柔らかくて、落ち着ける空間だと思いました!一息つきたい時には最高のお店です! ランチでコレナイ豚の柚子風味を食べたのですが、肉が柔らかく、豚肉の脂を柚子のアクセントが入ることによってとてもさっぱり食べられました! こんなオシャレで落ち着けるお店が近所にあって良かったです!

Hidden gem in town. I had the privilege to visit this cafe with my former primary school teacher and what a lovely cafe. The owner is so welcoming, the atmosphere of the cafe is charming, and I especially enjoyed the beautiful gallery of the artworks of owner's grandfather. If you are in town, definitely worth the visit in regards to food, and hospitality, and this cafe is unique, and lovable, especially if you love coffee and an art museum.

フォカッチャ チーズと、 チーズケーキアイスを 注文しました。 フォカッチャには付け合わせに サラダがついてきました。 ドライオニオン?クルトン?が ザクザクと香ばしい食感でした。 フォカッチャは意外に厚みがあり、 ボリュームを感じました。 チーズは満遍なく フォカッチャにかかっていますが、 しょっぱいという程ではなく ほのかに塩味を感じる程度です。 チーズケーキアイスは ひんやりと固く、 少し歯ごたえがありました。 ホイップと苺のソースが 添えられています。 店内は広く,天井は高く,窓は大きく, 解放感のある店内でした。 お会計は現金。 ギャラリーを併設しており、 閲覧は無料です。
