First Visit in 2022 (No.3816) 1. Purpose of Visit - The purpose of visiting was to gather information on eel dishes for the Day of the Ox in 2022, which falls on August 4th (Thursday), and to pass the time until the opening time of the restaurant in Azabu-Juban. 2. Shop Information - Genre on Tabelog: Cafe, Bar - Relatively new restaurant opened on April 16, 2022 - A cafe place that values local ingredients, mainly from Nagasaki, and offers sake as well - Opening Hours: [Mon-Fri] 7:30-22:00, [Sat-Sun-Holidays] 10:00-22:00 (20:00) - Select shop also attached 3. Crowdedness and Atmosphere on the Day - Visited at 11:00 on a weekday with no other customers before or after - Bright and well-lit interior with many windows - High-quality interior design including chairs and tables 4. Service - Only two young female staff members in the hall, providing service according to the manual - Despite being seated in a blind spot from the staff's view, the lack of attention felt comfortable and pleasant 5. Order Items Nagasaki Specialty Shari-Shari Milkshake 550 yen - Ordered out of curiosity as the owner's origin from Nagasaki was unknown. It was a first-time try. After researching, found out that the "Nagasaki Milkshake" is an ice dessert that originated in Nagasaki in the late Taisho to early Showa era. It has a crunchy and sweet texture, reminiscent of a nostalgic taste. 6. Summary - Although slightly away from the bustling Azabu-Juban shopping street, this cafe with a sense of luxury is a hidden gem. It might be worth remembering for those times when you become a cafe refugee in Azabu-Juban. Thank you for the meal.

This is a cafe located in Azabu-Juban. It is a space attached to a select shop for clothing and miscellaneous goods, offering drinks, sweets, and snacks focusing on Nagasaki's local menu. The concept is "Natural Time, Open Space". It is open from 9:00 on weekdays until late at night, making it convenient for light meals, lunch, tea time, and a drink in the evening. It opened in April 2022. The location is about a 3-minute walk from Azabu-Juban Station Exit 1. Walk along Azabu Street towards Shirokane Takawa, turn right at the intersection before Ninohashi intersection, then turn right at the second block corner. It is on the 2nd floor of a building along Aijiro Street. I visited in the afternoon. The interior is bright with natural light coming in, with the cafe on the right side and the clothing select shop on the left. It's not very spacious, but there were no other customers, so it felt open. There are table seats and sofa seats. Jazz music was playing in the background. The shop is run by two staff members, and the service is friendly and pleasant. The menu includes the following items (prices include tax). Payment is made in advance. The menu mainly consists of Nagasaki's local dishes, chosen from the perspective of wanting to provide comforting dishes using good local ingredients. - Coffee, soft drinks (from 550 yen) - Sweets (each 550 yen) - Alcohol (from 660 yen) - Meals, snacks (each 1,100 yen) Recommended items with photos include Nagasaki's specialty Shari Shari Milkshake (550 yen), Setouchi Lemon Soda in Stained Glass (660 yen), Draft Beer (660 yen). I ordered the following: ● Setouchi Lemon Soda in Stained Glass (660 yen) After ordering, I chose a blue glass similar to the one in the photo from three different colored glasses. What was brought to me was the same as the photo. It came in a cool blue glass with a frozen "Setouchi Lemon" cut into slices and soda. The refreshing blue and yellow color combination is very nice. Now, let's slowly enjoy the frozen lemon while it melts with a straw! There is a lot of lemon, so it takes a while to melt, resulting in a leisurely stay. The atmosphere was very pleasant. The location may not stand out, but it's a good place to take a break. Remembering this place can be convenient for a relaxing time.

Hidden gem cafe in Asakusa. Open from 7:30 to 22:00 on weekdays, 10:00 to 22:00 on Saturdays and holidays, and 10:00 to 20:00 on Sundays. The cafe is attached to a select shop and has a cute atmosphere. Ordered the nostalgic mayo sandwich from Sasebo (1,100 yen) and a hot coffee (550 yen). The drink was discounted to 440 yen when ordered as a set. Food felt a bit pricey overall, so I would consider revisiting for drinks only. Money spent: 1,540 yen Rating: 3 points 5 points: Definitely want to revisit!! 4 points: Would revisit if given the chance! 3 points: Would consider revisiting. 2 points: Once is enough. 1 point: Not worth visiting.

I visited for lunch. I had peperoncino, a mini salad, and a cafe au lait. I thought I would like to try a dessert next time!
