Ishioka, Ibaraki, Japan｜古民家カフェ 岡野ファーム

It was great☆ I would like to give the highest marks to all of the food, customer service, facilities, and atmosphere! It's delicious, and the price is cheap enough considering the recent high prices ♪ I was especially impressed with the deliciousness of the rice. If there is one thing I would like to say, the amount of barley tea provided at the beginning is small (laughs) It's hot and you look busy, so it's hard to say "Please give me another cup of tea." I secretly thought that it would be nice if you could serve it in a slightly larger cup. Also, if you have children, I think it's good to look for blueberries. Blueberries that are playful in the restaurant, not blueberries in the farm. The hint is the cushion and the legs of the table (*^^*)

I visited the Yasato area of ​​Ishioka City for the first time. Everyone I met was soothing. Let yourself be soothed by the scenery that catches your eye. In the Hachigo area, the place for lunch is, of course, the healing space “Okano Farm”. Delicious lunch, sweets and coffee in a wonderful location. His wife Yoshiko, who is a nutritionist, prepares a menu that takes into consideration the beauty of the appearance and health. ・Pre-meal drink (seasonal juice) This time it was carrot and Aomori apple juice. This is stupid. I wanted a second helping. ・Nine types of appetizers made with local ingredients ・Ginger grilled Ibaraki brand pork ("Mizuho no Imo Pork") ・Okano Farm "Yoshio Rice" ・Miso soup with natural dashi ・ Sweets (homemade gelato etc. daily) I had blueberry gelato. Of course, the blueberries are freshly picked from Okano Farm. ・After-meal drink (you can choose from coffee, tea, etc.) This time, I had a jar of Aomori apples grown by my husband's friend. Lastly, reservations are required for lunch. Also, the telephone response for reservations is soothing with a gentle feeling. it's recommended.

A retro restaurant in a renovated old house. I made a reservation during Obon and visited, but it was a wonderful place that fits very well with summer. As for the rice, the tuna garlic saute was especially delicious.
