Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan｜TABLE-cafe&dining-

Sort of a hidden gem. Sandwiches between AIST and JAXA, this is the more recent incarnation of this site. A cute, wide open cafe style dining spot good for both a coffee or a meal. Although I have not tried the entire menu, it does seem slightly indian inspired in flavoring. A definite must. Nothing surrounds this building except boring buildings, but once inside you do not realize it. Ample parking. Went back for a weekday lunch. Reasonably crowded. Reservations recommended to avoid wait. Same good service.

I went there with my friends. We got panini sandwich and curry lunch set. The food was nice and tasty. I like that they have a seat outside. It is hard to find such places. I got a hazelnut coffee. The hazelnut taste was quite pronounce.

Definitely a hidden gem. Tastes as good as it looks :)
