Hankyu Rokko Station has been relocated for quite some time, but I finally got a chance to visit. It is located in a residential area near the Sora-bori shopping street in Tanimachi Rokuchome, where the old streets remain. It's like Kyoto with small alleys, making it hard to find the right path without knowing the area well. There are no specific signs, so it's a place you can only find if you know about it. I relied on the address to find it. I visited on a weekday afternoon. There were two groups of customers before me. There are four tables in a quiet space with soothing background music. I ordered coffee and two pieces of hotcakes. I patiently waited to meet the beautifully fluffy thick hotcakes. It didn't take as long as I expected, maybe because the previous customers didn't order hotcakes. Still, it took about 30 minutes. But that's how this place is. It's for people who want to spend their time leisurely. The two-layered hotcakes were crispy on the outside when I cut them with a knife, and the inside was fluffy, making it easy to slice through. I topped them with butter and syrup. Oh, the natural deliciousness that can only be experienced at Tsukimori. I savored each bite slowly. The coffee had a hint of acidity. The aroma of freshly ground beans filled the air as the hotcakes were being made. I had it black, no need for milk. The interior and the cups and saucers all match the unique atmosphere of this place. It's a perfect spot for someone like me who enjoys book cafes and cozy, calm places. This was my 200th review, and I'm happy to have experienced Tsukimori. ☺️

Located slightly off the beaten path from the Kurombori shopping street is Tsukimori-san. I brought a book with me based on recommendations from reviews. Despite the somewhat confusing location, I was able to find it easily by using a landmark I had decided on during my regular shopping trips to the Kurombori shopping street. Tsukimori-san has a natural and relaxed atmosphere. Inside the quiet shop, I could hear the sound of eggs being cracked and the batter being mixed just for me. The sound of them being cooked was also comforting. When the hotcakes were ready, I found them to be firm yet fluffy, with a delightful aroma of wheat spreading in my mouth. I enjoyed them with plenty of syrup drizzled on top. I will definitely make a reservation and visit again to be healed.

"Enchanting Pancake 1726 "Kissa Tsukimori" (Osaka, Matsuyamachi) has relocated. It's a hidden gem with no signboard or menu display, catering only to those in the know. It's been 10 years since my last visit. This marks the 1660th edition in the Enchanting Pancake series. Coffee is 550 yen and a stack of 2 pancakes is 900 yen."

Hidden in a quiet alley just off the Kabori shopping street, there is a small café called Kissaten Tsukimori. It has a mysterious vibe, almost like only chosen ones can find it, so be careful not to miss it when you pass by. Menu: - Pancakes: 1 piece for ¥500 - Seasonal vegetable soup: ¥700 I ordered the vegetable soup while waiting for the pancakes, which take about an hour to cook. The soup was incredibly delicious, with tender vegetables packed full of flavor. It warmed me up from the inside out. Finally, the pancakes arrived - thick, crispy on the outside, and moist and fluffy on the inside. They were so good that I could easily have eaten two pieces. I prefer this type of pancake over the trendy fluffy ones that melt in your mouth. The café has only four tables for two people each, so I recommend making a reservation. The atmosphere is incredibly quiet, and even I couldn't bring myself to do a live stream. I definitely want to go back again. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

I was invited by a friend who loves coffee to visit a cafe. The shop, originally located in Rokko, Kobe, has now moved to Matsuyamachi in Osaka. To get there, you have to turn off the arcade in "Kobaricho Shotengai" and wind your way through a cluster of houses. When we arrived, my friend suddenly stopped in front of what looked like just a regular house with no sign indicating it was a cafe (see photo 1). Upon entering cautiously, we found ourselves in a small but cozy cafe. This place truly feels like a hidden gem that you wouldn't stumble upon unless you knew about it. We arrived around 3:30 pm and luckily found a table outside to sit down smoothly. The cafe, known for something specific, had a reputation for its famous pancakes with a warning that it takes about an hour to prepare. I was skeptical about waiting an hour for pancakes, but indeed, the menu (see photo 2) stated it clearly. Despite my doubts, we ordered the "Pancake" (500 yen tax included) and "Straight Tea" (550 yen tax included) which came to a total of 1,000 yen. My friend also ordered the same. As we waited, we could hear the meticulous sounds of the kitchen, indicating that the cooking was being done with care. The atmosphere was quiet and it was advised to speak softly. Finally, after exactly an hour, our pancakes were served (see photo 3). The pancakes were firm on the outside but not too dry inside, with a strong wheat flavor that spread in the mouth. The long wait and unique taste made it worth the experience. We ate quickly and left. My friend, who had visited the shop before, mentioned that it's a place where you naturally end up spending a long time, reading a book and enjoying the moment. After visiting, I realized that it was indeed a nice cafe, and I couldn't help but think it was a unique and enjoyable experience.

I bought a reservation ticket and was excited to go to the restaurant on the day. I ordered pancakes, which take about 60 minutes to cook. While waiting, I enjoyed watching videos and had a tea float and a donut first. Then the pancakes arrived! I've never seen pancakes in such a beautiful shape before. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is quiet and calming.

Let's have some pancakes♪ It seems to take about an hour for them to be ready, so it's best to visit when you have some time to spare. Exit from Matsuyacho Station's 3rd exit, walk south in the same direction as the cars. Go up the shopping street of Sorabori. Once you enter the arcade of the shopping street, go right at the fish store. Then, head east on the wider road to the left. There is a small signboard on the left. I had never been able to make pancakes that I thought were delicious on my own, so I had been experimenting recently. I was looking forward to enjoying delicious pancakes at the shop, so I made a reservation through their website. On the day of the visit, I was charged 50 yen for the reservation ticket, but later received a postcard with a system fee of 300 yen and a total charge of 350 yen. I was surprised by this system. I tried calling the shop several times, but there was no answer. However, after researching online, I found out that there is a system fee of 3000 yen for making a reservation, which was more expensive than the handling fee for concert tickets. When I finally arrived at the shop, a couple had entered before me. It seems like it will take even more time for the pancakes to be ready, as expected. It will take an hour and a half, is that okay? they asked. I ordered ice milk tea and two pancakes, and decided to explore the Sorabori shopping street in the meantime. As for the menu, they had pancakes for 500 yen each or 900 yen for two, donuts for 200 yen each, toast with various toppings ranging from 350 to 450 yen, and seasonal vegetable soup for 700 or 850 yen with sausage. Today's soup had cauliflower, snow peas, and fava beans, which caught my interest. There were also various drink options. After exploring the shopping street for 30 minutes and returning, the couple's drinks and pancakes arrived first. Finally, after an hour and a half, my ice milk tea and pancakes arrived. The pancakes had a traditional brown surface and were delicious with butter. The bottom pancake already had butter spread on it. It was delicious. The long wait of an hour and a half made me wish there was something to do inside the shop. I paid 1400 yen on the day of the visit, plus a reservation system fee of 350 yen later. Perhaps the system fee can be paid at the time of reservation, which I did not understand and paid later. I walked to Yonroku, an old-fashioned and nostalgic area, and noticed that many shops had changed in the Sorabori shopping street.

There is a pancake shop near Hankyu Rokko Station where it takes an hour for the pancakes to be ready. I've known about this place for about 5 years now. I searched on Tabelog and remembered it! If I go today, I can wait as long as I want. I don't remember the name of the shop, so I searched for keywords online. Oh wow, they've moved!! And to Matsuya-cho in Osaka? There's only one review so far. Impressive! "Melon Cheese-san" and "Maru Al-san" have visited a cafe that no one else has reviewed. In the end, a few days later, I found the place even though I know the area quite well. It was difficult! People who don't know the place will definitely not find it! They won't pass by, and even if they're looking for Tsukimori-san, they won't find it, right? It was a quiet place with a calming atmosphere, so I didn't mind waiting for the pancakes to be cooked. About 45 minutes later, the pancakes arrived. They looked great, smelled amazing, and had a nice thickness. The texture was crispy on the outside but not hard inside. It was delicious on its own, and even better with plenty of maple syrup. I think the reason it takes time is because they cook it slowly and make the batter from scratch after you order. The sound of that process could be heard from the kitchen. The quiet and pleasant atmosphere of the place made it easy to forget about the busy daily life for a moment.

This is my second visit to Cafe Tsukimori in Osaka since it relocated. I went with my pancake buddies and we both ordered two hotcakes each, then stacked them on top of each other ourselves. Tsukimori's hotcakes have thick batter, so even with just four layers, the pancake tower looked impressive and beautiful! Of course, we each ate our two layers happily together. 😊

Tea House Tsukimori has moved from Hankyu Rokko to the back alley area of Osaka Karahori Shopping Street, and this was my first visit to the new location. The shop is located in a maze-like backstreet that is quite difficult to find, so I got a little lost trying to find it (laughs). What I ate: Tsukimori's Hotcakes - 2 pieces for 900 yen Type: Sponge type Taste: ★★★★4.5 (as of March 2021) Even though the location of the shop has changed, the hotcakes have remained consistent in quality for over 10 years.

I ordered hotcakes which are cooked slowly at low temperature after the order is placed. While waiting, I enjoyed some tea and donuts. The tea had a pleasant aroma and I ended up buying some. The hotcakes were simple yet delicious. I had a relaxing time in a cozy atmosphere.
