Tako, Chiba, Japan｜薫風

I visited here for the first time. It's an old folk house cafe with a very nice atmosphere, and I was able to relax right away. I was interested in having pork rice, but I can't eat meat so I gave up. I made a shrimp curry. My partner ordered white stew bread. I took many photos while the food was being brought out. The shrimp curry was spicy, rich, and really delicious. Coffee is also ◎. I was also happy to have a second helping. The owner was also a very nice person, and the staff worked efficiently and left a good impression. Sanshiro, the signboard dog, was also cute. The BGM also resonated with me because I was from the Don Pisha generation. I would like to visit you again.

When I inquired by phone in advance, I was told that there were only a few seats available, so I would like to make a reservation. There seems to be only one sofa seat where you can relax, so reservations are recommended. There is no set menu, but the meal, cake, and 3 blended drinks cost 1,600 yen (tax included), which is a bargain. I could not hear other customers' conversations at all. They also offered me refills of coffee each time. At the end, we were served hot tea. Great customer service. The grounds are spacious, and you can enjoy a magical time that feels like you have traveled to another dimension, isolated from the hustle and bustle of the outside world.

I visited in the afternoon on a public holiday, when the snow that had been falling until the morning remained. The gate was narrow, so I was careful when entering. This time, the snow made the garden look quaint. The brick gate next to the site is worth seeing. I have pork rice. My companion was shrimp curry. I also ordered coffee and apple cake. Pork rice is delicious when cooked with salted pork, or just as is. When combined with the dashi soup, the flavor changed even more and it was delicious, so even though I wasn't planning on refilling it, I ended up refilling it. The shrimp are also plump and delicious. Apple cake is rich. I was substituting pork rice, but the apple had a sour taste, so I enjoyed it till the end. You can have coffee as a substitute, so I had it before or after my meal. The price was good and I was really satisfied. I would like to eat it on the terrace next time.
