Miyazu, Kyoto, Japan｜Fika Mawata

[Japanese / in English below / en français / på svenska] "Fika" means coffee break in Swedish. It is widely followed as a social custom in Sweden and Finland. I also follow this habit every day. To my surprise, I found a store with a Swedish name! I was very nervous while my colleague and I traveled from the station for about 10 minutes. To my surprise, I had a delicious salmon bagel with seasonal side dishes and a nostalgic blueberry cake that reminded me of Sweden and Finland. One of the side dishes was ratatouille, which was perfectly done and satisfying on a hot day. This meal cured my homesickness and made me feel very happy. They also have a wide variety of bagels and cakes, and I am very grateful for the delicious meals. It's a little small inside, so reserve a table before you go. Please excuse my clumsy Japanese. // Fika is not an English word. It roughly means "coffee break" in Swedish. For many people with a Swedish/Finnish background, fika is an essential part of our daily lives. Hence my excitement to find a place with a Swedish name! 10 minutes by foot from the station. The bagel sets aren't sugary liked to American bagels or even Montréal style bagels. Instead, you can enjoy a high-quality bagel set made with local and fresh ingredients. I had an excellent salmon bagel with sides, including salad, ratatouille, and an okra-winter melon soup.My coworker had the ham bagel set.For dessert, we shared two delicious blueberry treats and coffee.This brunch restored my energy and made me feel less homesick, so there's good comfort food! Since it is relatively small inside, please make a reservation in advance. Le mot 《fika》est une pause-café en suédois. C'est une tradition tous les jours depuis mon enfance. Il est beaucoup important en Suède et en Finlande. nom important ! Juste 10 minutes à pied de la gare Miyazu, c'est un café tranquille pour un repas. Mais, c'est populaire avec les résidents de Miyazu. est pas comme les bagels à Montréal, c'est plus comme les bagels dans une petite boulangerie. Les gâteaux sont frais et faits avec des ingrédients locaux. visite pour un déjeuner ou une pause-café, il faut que se fasse une réservation. // En bra café för en fika i Miyazu! Mycket svensk, finsk, och internationell dekorations. Nära stationen, mycket bra mats. Forväg.

This is a famous bagel sandwich shop in Miyazu. It was introduced on TV ^^ It is located a little far away, about 10 minutes walk north from Miyazu Station. It feels like it's tucked away in a residential area ^ ^ There was a parking space, but it doesn't seem like there's a lot of parking space ^ - ^ The inside of the store is like a relatively small cafe, with a few tables and a few counters. I think it would be difficult if there were a lot of people, so I think about 2.3 people (4 people at most) is just right ^ ^ Their specialty is bagel sandwiches, and they also serve lunch. The price was 1,500 yen, but it was healthy and had a decent amount, so it was just right ^ ^ They also have a relatively large selection of cakes and drinks, so some people came for the cafe rather than the bagels ^ ^ It's only open on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, so it's difficult to find the right time to go, but I think it's worth going at least once if you come to Miyazu ^ - ^

Bagel sandwich lunch. I had a bagel sandwich with cream cheese and nuts. Salad, soup, and two small bowls are 1100 yen, but the deliciousness of the ingredients and the taste of freshly baked bagels were all very satisfying lunches. The dessert cake (additional charge!) looked delicious, and I had the strawberry special short (plenty of strawberries and cream). oh it was delicious I'll be home from tomorrow until January and a half (laughs). Happy lunch banzai! When the time comes, I'll definitely go eat a fig parfait! Oooh
