Okazaki, Aichi, Japan｜カフェ 柚子木

As part of this "Nukata Experience Village" initiative, we asked for a yuzu pepper making experience♪ We started by harvesting yuzu citrus from the orchard using tall branch cutting shears. It's a wonderful initiative. It's great that this yuzu is also grown without pesticides! !

access This is a Japanese-style cafe located in the mountains of Okazaki. Although there is no nearest station, the restaurant has a calm atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle. The shop is located on Okazaki Shaved Ice Road, so shaved ice is their specialty. (I'm doing this even around mid-October!) We have a selection of seasonal flavors, but as it is a busy store, sales may be discontinued. If you think "I want to eat this", eat it immediately! I recommend going. location You can fully enjoy the undeveloped nature of Okazaki's mountainous interior. A stream flows nearby, and the murmuring sound is refreshing. The building uses a lot of wood, and the dark wood adds to the atmosphere. The main floor has large tables where you can gather in groups. The wood balcony has an open feel and is stress-free. I didn't go there this time, but I'm also interested in the heated stone bath facility attached! customer base There are many settled adults, such as couples, married couples, and local senior groups. Perhaps because the restaurant owns dogs, there was a group of people enjoying their meals with their dogs. When using strollers, wheelchairs, walking aids, etc. The atmosphere is like a renovated old folk house, so there are only stairs and the passageway is a little narrow. It may be a good idea to inquire in advance. method of payment In principle, cash or PayPay

I went to Cafe Yuzugi-san, which I wanted to go to for a long time. It took about 40 minutes from Shinshiro, but when I crossed the Masamizaka Pass on the way, the road was narrow and quite steep, so I finally arrived after being frustrated. There was a cafe on the second floor of a log house-like building, and there was a stone kiln for baking baked sweet potatoes and pizza. There was also a welcome of two large dogs 😊 It is a very friendly and gentle dog 🐕 I arrived before 10:10, so I was the first to arrive, but by 10:30, there were a lot of thrilling customers. I ordered strawberry milk ice cream, chocolate banana ice cream, and Yuzu Hime. Yuzuhime mixed yuzu jelly and puree Pour amazake sauce on the ice🍧 Then comes the Gohei mochi in the shape of a military pie❗️ The miso sauce is mixed with Haccho miso and minced chicken meat, and it's very delicious😋 The yuzu ice is refreshing, so if you put the amazake sauce on it, the flavor will be richer and delicious. in the ice Chestnuts and roasted sweet potatoes were included one by one❗️ As a lover of yuzu and amazake, I was very satisfied 😋 It is surrounded by trees and has a river running through it. It was very cool❗️ The menu has a wide variety of lunch menus such as curry, pasta, and pizza. Next time I come, I'd like to try the pizza baked in the stone oven below🍕❗️
