I saw on social media that BAAL's menu has expanded, so I went there again. They have added various pasta dishes as well as hamburger menus. The Gorgonzola hamburger is back! Today, I was curious about the hamburgers, so I ordered the Loco Moco bowl (1200 yen) and soft serve ice cream (set for 350 yen). The Loco Moco bowl had a fluffy and juicy hamburger, it was delicious. The egg yolk was runny and flowed out a little when touched. The soft serve ice cream was rich and creamy, and I chose the maple cone. It was also delicious. I will definitely go back, this time I want to try the pasta. Thank you for the meal~.

I visited this restaurant during my trip to Otaru. I had planned to have a seafood bowl for lunch at the Sankaku Market, but all the places had long waiting times, so I decided to order a steak bowl here instead. They offer a student discount on Thursdays and Fridays, and I got a drink and dessert set for 1280 yen. Since the seafood bowls were all a bit pricey, I felt like I got a great deal here. The portion was generous and the taste was delicious. The soft serve dessert was also visually appealing.

I sometimes come here because I want to eat the steak bowl. The steak is cooked just right. Look at this pinkish color inside! The meat and the sauce on top are delicious. Oh, the basil potato salad is back! The side dishes occasionally change, but I'm so happy that the basil-scented potato salad has made a comeback. I really want to convey this happiness to the staff, but I couldn't talk to them, so I'm writing it here. When you order a meal, coffee is cheap. The crepe is wrapped with whipped cream and mousse, and it's more delicious than it looks.

I came to Otaru to play from the morning on my day off, and I visited 7 places in a row, feeling a bit tired of myself for doing something unproductive, even though it's a hobby. Towards the end of the day, I stopped by a cafe called "CAFE' BAAL" across from the station. It's a place I often pass by and had been putting off visiting because "I can come anytime." Upon opening the door and entering the store, I was greeted by a cheerful voice from a man and a woman. There were 2 counter seats and about 5 two-person tables in the store. There was one group of three customers already seated. I sat at the counter and was promptly served a glass of water. I ordered the "crepe wrap drink set @550." They had a fully automatic espresso machine called "jura," which I've been seeing a lot in small stores lately. With the press of a button, it grinds and brews the espresso, and within seconds, it's ready. The espresso had a sharp, intense bitterness that slightly numbed my tongue, similar to the strong bitterness of beer hops. It may not be to everyone's liking, and they may need to adjust the settings or reconsider the choice of beans. However, I had been drinking mediocre coffee all day since morning, so I was actually looking for something different and the timing was not too bad. The "crepe wrap" was served in about 10 minutes. It was simple with ice cream and whipped cream as the ingredients, but the slightly sweet and fluffy whipped cream, along with the equally mildly sweet ice cream, complemented each other very well. The crepe dough was cooked moist and soft, and it was beautifully cooked. It was named "Funamizaka Crepe," and the set with a drink for 550 yen was a great deal. Looking at the menu again, I was also interested in the Western-style dishes centered around meat. Thank you for the meal.

I stopped by during a trip the other day! The café is located right in front of Otaru market and has a stylish interior that creates a relaxing atmosphere. I ordered an iced coffee and a hojicha mousse. The hojicha mousse had a hint of hojicha flavor within the sweetness and was really delicious! It goes perfectly with the coffee! I will definitely visit again!

I had a crepe at the stylish CAFE' BAAL. The interior is Instagram-worthy, perfect for local Instagrammers and tourists in Otaru. I tried the Funamizaka crepe. While I was tempted by the steak, I opted for the crepe since I was already full. As I started eating, I remembered a quote from the comedian Shoji Ohtsuka, "Sweet words can't be forced. 'Sweet words' naturally come out when I see you." The sweetness left the biggest impression. It was delicious, but a bit too sweet for my liking. I wish it had been a bit less sweet, maybe about two levels less. However, once I started eating, I accepted it and finished the whole thing. I think if I ate this kind of sweetness regularly, I might become addicted to sweet things. I need to be careful. Overall rating 3.3 Taste 3.3 Service 3.3 Atmosphere 3.4 Value for money 3.0 Drink - Address: 3-8-10 Inaho, Otaru City, Hokkaido CAFE' BAAL ☆☆☆ Next time, I want to try the steak.

It was juicy and delicious. I liked it. It was good that there was a parking lot.

Steak bowl is recommended, easy to enter even for one person.

I went to a café bar in Otaru for lunch! Since it was lunchtime, the prices were not too high. They also offer a student discount, making it a friendly place! I ordered the steak bowl!

Steak bowl with the best cost performance at 1100 yen. It's just delicious. If you want to casually eat steak, go to cafe BAAL!

The taste of happiness. The fat of the meat is delicious.
