Kyoto, Japan｜苔乃茶屋

Such a nice place after visiting the moss temple, the lady working there is so cute and explained everything about her place with so much enthusiasm! Food was delicious, and the place was really cost.

The lady is a star in attracting hungry visitors, she is lovely and runs a very well operating soba restaurant. Although she doesn't speak any English she went out of her way to make us feel as welcome as the other guests, showing her photobooks and waiving us in the right direction. The food was also amazing and her small but well kept garden provides a nice view to enjoy your meal even more.

When visiting Suzumushi Temple, I used it because I had time until the sermon. I was traveling alone, so I got off the Suzumushi-dera bus stop and looked around. The aunt gave me pamphlets one after another, gave me several cups of tea, and showed me the Otokomatsu and Mematsu in her garden. It was a weekday in August and I was the only customer, but it seems that it can be crowded on holidays. A wonderful once-in-a-lifetime encounter. This is the kind of shop that you definitely want to stop by when you visit Suzumushi-dera Temple and pay your respects. Come on, everyone. It was really really nice.
