Bread, Espresso, And Arashiyama Garden

5 Reviews

As expected, it is a very quaint cafe with an old folk house because it is located in Arashiyama. It was a thatched-roof house with a garden, and this time I had it relaxing under the eaves. The pudding I received was a little hard, with a pudding that suppressed the sweetness with plenty of egg feeling, a caramel with an adult bitterness, and a whipped cream that added a milky feeling and richness. If you combine the three, it will have an exquisite taste.

Saganoyu
