Ueda, Nagano, Japan｜Garden Cafe Kanon

1,100 yen with coffee. There are few shops that can be satisfied with this price. There are several mains to choose from. I ordered grilled white fish with herb mayo. A small bowl full of chawanmushi and vegetables comes with the tray. Fresh vegetables are delicious. Color is also beautiful. It's well seasoned and healthy, so you don't feel guilty. Homemade rice is delicious. Most of the vegetables are also homemade. The work of the landlady, whose hobby is pottery, is used as the vessel. It was fun to see all of them in a very tasteful and wonderful vessel. When I visited before the corona epidemic, it was so delicious that I always wanted to visit again. Today my wish came true and I am satisfied. Since it was early, there were no other customers, so I was able to talk to them politely. I think it's better to make a reservation because it's a one-off operation and the parking lot is narrow.

I stopped by for lunch. I was surprised by the large number of small bowls! Everything was delicious and I was very satisfied. Next time I'll come and eat some cake too. Since the restaurant is small, we recommend that you make a reservation in advance.

I had made a reservation for a matsutake course meal at Nikoen, but since I had some time before making my reservation, I looked for a cafe and thought this cafe looked good, so I decided to visit. When I parked the car and got out, the owner came out and said that he was about to close for the day...! When I told her that I just wanted tea, she said I could come in. The restaurant has a very nice atmosphere, and as the name suggests, I was able to enjoy the view of the garden, which was nice. I only ordered tea, but they even served it with fruit! I was very happy and it was delicious 🍇 The tableware was apparently made with ceramics and they were all wonderful ☺️ The sugar bowl is also cute with a wooden bird🐤💞 While I was enjoying tea with a friend, a 2-month-old kitten 🐱 suddenly appeared from the garden, and since I only like cats, I got excited (whispering) 🥹 The owner said that he was not a pet cat and that he was not used to people, so he said that he might become a local cat instead of a foster parent. If I lived nearby, I would want to take her home, but Kanagawa and Nagano are too far away so I gave up, but she was really cute🥰 Even though there was a distance, she showed up and the cat was also staring at me ☺️ lol When I go to Ueda again, this is a place I definitely want to stop by 💞
