Matsukawa, Nagano, Japan｜Kowa-tei

I wanted to eat authentic scones, so I visited on a Saturday afternoon. If you get off the Chuo Expressway at Matsukawa IC, turn right just before the Yamabuki traffic light on National Route 153 and pass the Yakiniku restaurant ``Son Goku'' and you will find it behind it. At first, I turned right at the Yamabuki traffic light and couldn't get there (lol). Please be careful when visiting for the first time. The parking lot is in the square in front of the store. Since the Chuo Expressway was congested and I hadn't had lunch yet, I also had pasta for lunch. I had the pasta with shrimp and four kinds of beans in tomato sauce, and my wife had the bacon peperoncino. Both were very delicious and the flavor of the ingredients came out well. After the pasta, I had the cream tea I was looking for. Tea can be served straight from the teapot. The most important scone was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, which went well with the clotted cream and jam and was very delicious. The cake in the case at the store looked very delicious, but I would like to try the afternoon tea next time. I had a wonderful afternoon on my day off.

I was able to enjoy a quiet and relaxing time, and the afternoon tea was also very satisfying!

I went there during the driver's license training camp. It took about 35 minutes by bicycle from the driving school in Tenryu. I'm glad I was able to go through a safe road without going through the national highway. The exterior of the shop was also very cute and I took a lot of pictures. The pasta was chewy and delicious! ! The bagel sandwich was also very filling. The bacon was thick and thick. The strawberry roll cake for dessert was also sweet and delicious. The sweetness of the fresh cream is modest and the sweetness of the strawberries stands out, and I was very impressed! Thank you for your birthday message! ! !
