Minoh, Osaka, Japan｜Franc et élégant YUZUYA CAFE

A fantastic little cafe right at the start of the waterfalls and temple trail in Mipo. Wonderful views and delicious treats, perfect for a rest before or after the walk to the falls.

As the name suggests, yuzu is the main ingredient in both food and drinks. All the menu items are delicious with a nice yuzu scent. It feels like a cafe in the middle of nature. The space flowing slowly while listening to the sound of the river is a blissful time. Also recommended for dates. There is no parking lot nearby, so I parked at a parking lot near Minoh Station and then walked. It's a lot of walking and there are many hills, so it's not suitable for elderly people who don't like walking.

I had a small course for lunch (2 appetizers, organic vegetable tempura, main risotto, dessert, small sweets, coffee or tea). Corn jelly, boiled shrimp, and mousse below. It was soft and had corn grains in it, which gave it a nice texture. The smoked sweetfish has a slightly rare flavor, and the smoked aroma is aromatic. A taste I've never had anywhere else. Tempura is small vegetables and light in oil. I also like the bitterness of summer vegetables. I chose a highly carbonated fermented juice made by the chef. It had a nice aroma and was perfect before a meal. The window glass is from the Meiji era. The blue maple leaves spread out in front of me, and I could faintly hear the voices of the cicadas. I'll visit you again.
