tea and cakes or sweets



The first restaurant we would like to introduce to you is this one. This store has a traditional atmosphere, but has recently become increasingly popular and well-known. The reason for this is that it is the tea store used as the sacred place for the popular TV anime "YuruCan△ ".
The heroine enjoyed a cup of tea at this store during a break from motorcycle touring, and more and more people are relaxing here in the same way.
The roadside location makes for easy access to traffic and a wonderful place to relax after a long day of travel.



The tea here is delicious, but the sweets using matcha are combined to bring out the best of both worlds. For example, there is a wide variety of sweets, shaved ice, parfaits with green tea, whipped cream, strawberries, and more. At first glance, one might be tempted to pair matcha with Japanese sweets, but it is refreshing to know that matcha can also be paired with Western sweets such as these. We hope you will enjoy this miraculous marriage of tea and Western sweets.
