Japanese House Cafe

I found a nice cafe lately. It doesn't look like a cafe. It would rather look like ryokan or a big Japanese restaurant or something... The name is Ex cafe. It is located in Arashiyama.



















You might hesitat to approach it at first because it dosen't look like a cafe. I did actually... But there is a menu infromt of the gate, so you will be able to realize this is a cafe.



















You can see kind of Zen garden from the seat. It is very quiet and there are wooden tables and chairs. The atmospher was nice. Of course food was delicious!




I took a luch plate which consists of different small plates. Rice and miso soup come with this plate. After 14:00, you can have cafe menu like sweets or burger.

This morning, a yasaka taxi with pattern of a four-leaf clover came to our ryokan. Most yasaka taxies are with a three-leaf clover. Taxies with a four-leaf clover are only 4 in Kyoto city. We cannot make a reservation, so this is very lucky. It is said that this taxi bring you a lucky. If you ride on it, you can get a special certificate and sticker.
