Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi, Japan｜茶花

Really, really nice people working here, was touched by their hospitality.. Was offered japanese green tea, and the food was amazing. The grape juice is handmade, and it's out of this world. Would give more than 5 stars if I could! Actively recommend if you are visiting the Arayayama Shrine.

The owner is very very friendly and kind. We passed by their little stall just beside the road opposite to the shrine with our bike. Saw they are selling seasonal fruits which is very fresh. Bought 2 trays of strawberry and the lady owner even offer us condensed milk to mix it with the strawberry to get a different taste! Very friendly owner. Will definitely re-visit them again for my next visit to Mt Fuji.

Super cute little place that sells snacks and drinks. Must try their dorayaki which looks like homemade and at a really fair price. They don’t produce a lot daily so if you’re there too late you might not have the chance to try at all. I bought their dorayaki on different occasions, sometimes they make it big and sometimes small, they always change their flavors depending on the season. The fillings inside the dorayaki is so full and it tastes so good and fresh! Owner is super nice and friendly. Doesn’t speak English but puts up some English translated menu to help non-jap speakers with.
