Hello. This is Keinsuke. Today, I will introduce "ARCHI" in Nishii. A cafe located between Hankyu Nishii Station and Omiya Station. It is a Kyoto-style old private house that appears in the middle of a residential area. The door is open, creating a welcoming atmosphere for first-time visitors. A polite female staff welcomed me. The interior is a rare tatami room where you can relax. I felt that the quiet old private house with the aroma of coffee was a perfect and chill space. It is a great place to relax alone or visit for a date. Although the interior had a lot of young people, there were also elderly couples and men visiting alone.

- Firm Baked Pudding (600 yen): The reason I came to this cafe was for this pudding. The pudding on a white plate has a very dark caramel. The contrast of white and black is extremely beautiful. It is a simple pudding without cream, ice cream, or cherry, but it fits perfectly in this old private house setting with a Kyoto-like appearance. The texture is quite firm as it is called firm baked, and the sweetness is moderate with a bitter touch. It is a pudding with an adult taste.
<Summary>
Nishii and Omiya are relatively close to Kawaramachi and Karasuma, but there are fewer tourists, making it a good city to relax in a cafe. I want to visit again because there are other places I want to go. Thank you for the meal!
