I heard that Mlesna Tea, which I enjoyed a lot during my trip to Sri Lanka, is now in Tokyo. I also heard that they offer all-you-can-eat scones! This time, I went there with a friend, so I'll report on it! I went there for the all-you-can-eat scones. When I made a reservation, the only session available was from 5pm, so you can see how popular it is. When I arrived exactly on time, I was given a numbered ticket and instructed to look around the store and wait. After a while, my number was called and I was allowed through to the second floor. The seats are limited to 1 hour and 45 minutes, and you are asked first if there is a tea flavor that you don't like. The confiture-type flavors include lemon-flavored clotted cream, whipped cream, chestnut cream, and strawberry jam, and you can also get two types of sauce. You can have as much refills as you want. I'm so happy that I can have as much clotted cream as I want...By the way, everything was delicious. There are two types of scones: pie-like (like Kentucky Fried Chicken biscuits) and large regular types, and you are given two of each at first. Freshly baked and happy! My friend and I preferred the regular scones. The scones were not brought whenever we wanted, but rather the staff went around to each table and added one at a time when they were done baking. It seemed like they were baking each type in turn. I ended up eating about six scones and was full. The tea was delicious, of course, and we enjoyed a variety of different types. It was free flow, but the staff brought the next one randomly, so we couldn't choose the flavor. When I went to amsu tea, I remember having about 18 refills and refusing the last one, but here we stayed until the time limit and were given about 11 cups (plus complimentary iced tea and tea soda). Sometimes the tea ran out and we couldn't eat the scones. It would be nice if there were more opportunities to get more tea. Also, it was a 2-hour system, so it got hectic towards the end. It may not be suitable for people who want to enjoy it at a leisurely pace. Still, I think it's reasonable for the price and content! I would recommend it to others. 📍Address: 1-12-12 Kichijoji Minamimachi, Musashino-shi, Tokyo 180-0003 #Domestic Travel Strategy

How about going to Tokyo this winter vacation? I'll introduce you to a delicious restaurant in Kichijoji, a charming neighborhood in Tokyo. 2️⃣~3️⃣ Kayashima I recommend Kayashima, a restaurant that appeared on Lonely Gourmet! The program had the Neapolitan and Hamburger sets from the Wakuwaku sets, and I ordered the same ones. It was a taste that made me laugh. It wasn't anything special, but the sweet and sour taste of spaghetti with ketchup brought back old memories! It was delicious. It's a local restaurant that many locals visit. 4️⃣ Shiawase no Pancakes Shiawase = happiness, so if you take a bite, you'll be happy just like the name of the restaurant! A bite of the sweet and fluffy pancake will make you forget all the fatigue of the day. 5️⃣~6️⃣ Satou This is Satou, a menchikatsu restaurant that's been around for over 100 years! This is a popular restaurant loved by locals, and there is always a long line whether you go in the morning, at lunch, or in the evening. They also sell other fried foods besides menchikatsu, but the best menu at this restaurant is menchikatsu. When you take a bite of freshly fried menchikatsu, the meat juice bursts out and you will automatically applaud. The line also moves quickly, so it is a restaurant worth waiting in line to eat at! 7️⃣ Kanekoya A restaurant that always has a long line and makes you wonder what it is. It is a restaurant that sells tendon, so the line was long before it opened. I thought it was a little greasy and not worth waiting in line to eat at, but the locals praised it as the best tendon restaurant. I guess it didn't suit my taste. However, since it is a restaurant that Kichijoji residents count on one hand, it wouldn't be bad to visit once! 8️⃣Cheonha Sushi A place where you can eat sushi until you burst at the price. There are many menus that you have to order yourself, so I recommend this place to people who can speak a little Japanese. A place where you can eat delicious sushi at a much cheaper price than in Korea. The staff was also friendly. There was a bit of a wait, but there were a lot of office workers who came alone and ate quickly, so the turnover was good. 📍Kayashima (食事とお酒 カヤシマ) 〒180-0004 1-10-9 Yoshinoji-Honcho, Buzano-shi, Tokyo Business hours 11:00-22:30 📍Shiawase no Pancake (幸せのパンケーキ Yoshinoji-ten) 〒180-0004 Tokyo-gun Martial Arts Building 301 Business hours 10:30-19:30 📍Sato (吉祥寺さとう) 〒180-0004 Tokyo City, Noshi-ji Temple, 1-8, Tokyo-ji Temple.

#TokyoItinerary #Kichijoji #Tokyofood #Curry 📍Kichijoji Although I have not visited Kichijoji in depth, this area gives me a feeling of youth, art, and culture. There are many self-designed shops, handicraft shops, coffee shops, restaurants, etc. —————————————————————— 🔹Rojiura Curry SAMURAI.Kichijoji store Address: 〒180-0004 2-chome 27-2, Kichijoji Honmachi, Musashino City, Tokyo I’ve eaten at a curry shop that I’ll never forget! So delicious! The taste of the meal can be customized, including choosing the spiciness level. Tablet ordering with Chinese interface. I ordered classic original and coconut milk flavored curries respectively, with boiled pork belly and chicken thighs, plus fresh wild vegetables. In addition, prawns, fried oysters and limited-time fried mooncakes are added to satisfy your appetite. The restaurant follows the route of a wooden cabin, with tatami seats and normal seats, a warm environment, and Halloween decorations.

3 minutes walk from Kichijoji Station. I discovered that there was such a stylish movie theater on the second basement floor of "Kichijoji Parco"! I'd like to introduce it to you 😄 When you go down to the second basement floor, an unusual space appears. First, you are greeted by a blue tunnel, and you pass through a stylish and exciting corridor that you might mistake for the entrance to a museum. Beyond that, you can see a party-like reception desk with a rotating mirror ball, and the surrounding atmosphere and decoration make you think that it's not a movie theater! On the contrary, it felt new‼ ️ This is "Uplink" 📽️, a movie company that distributes, produces, and operates movie theaters. Currently, there are three stores in Kyoto and Shibuya. They screen a wide range of genres, from mini-theaters to family and children's movies 🎦 They screen about 400 movies a year ✨ The theater has 5 screens and about 300 seats 💺. What's fun is that the chairs in the rooms for each screen are unique and colorful‼ ️The theater has colorful colors arranged randomly, seven colors arranged like a rainbow🌈, bright red seats, wood-grain chairs🪑, and striped chairs, making it a space that can be enjoyed every time. In addition, they are particular about the sound🔈 and video equipment. . . They use flat speakers specially developed by a domestic audio manufacturer to enjoy realistic sound😁 All screens are Hawaiian screens for the video, and they are designed to maximize the color tones of black-and-white movies. In addition, the shop sells very rare drinks🥤 and food‼ ️ The signature product is "Ira Cola" A cola made from a 100-year-old recipe and more than 15 kinds of spices🫚 and citrus fruits. It's spicy but addictively delicious‼ ️ There is also a goods corner, with 100 types of original Uplink products available. There are also goods from past screenings, making it a corner that movie fans will love🤗 The corridors are lined with photo exhibitions and flyers for screenings, and there are many spaces where you can enjoy your waiting time. If you have the chance, please go and see a movie, drink a Coke, or just enjoy the atmosphere✨☺️🎬It's a place that will surprise and entertain you‼️ [Uplink Kichijoji] Kichijoji PARCO📍1-5-1 Kichijoji Honmachi, Musashino City, Tokyo 180-8520 PARCO B2F☎️0422-66-5042 #Uplink #Movie Theater #Retro #IraCola #Movie Date

It was so stylish that I wondered what kind of building this was, so I went to check it out. I thought this was the Musashino Place library that was built in front of Musashisakai Station, but it was more than that 🫢 It is a new complex that supports not only library functions, but also civic activities, youth activities, and lifelong learning 📚. This facility consists of 3 basement floors and 4 above ground floors. It has a full range of functions, including a collection of 145,000 books, 600 magazine titles, and internet access. It also has various functions such as a lounge, a dance studio, and a forum that can accommodate 200 people, and serves as a place of communication. I would love to use such a stylish facility if it was nearby 😊 The building alone is wonderful, so please take a look when you are in the area.

I spent 13 days in Tokyo. I checked the guide and allocated one day to Kichijoji. The overall experience is as follows: [Attractions Review] 📍Inokashira Park🌟🌟🌟 I really don’t recommend going there in summer. It’s very sunny and hot⚠️⚠️⚠️It covers a very large area. There are rowing fields and natural and cultural parks (with animals and aquatic creatures). However, in summer, there is no air conditioning outdoors, which can make people faint from the heat. I walked around briefly and left. Friends who want to go for a walk are advised not to go there in summer. The experience will be much better in spring and autumn. Because I haven't tried it carefully, I'll give it three stars. 📍Kichijoji Petit Village🌟🌟🌟🌟 The Temari Castle inside is a paradise for cat lovers🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻No one can resist a fluffy cat! ! Highly recommended! ! There is no time limit, and the admission fee is only ￥1400/person on weekdays. Cat food and cat food need to be purchased separately. The prices are very reasonable and the taste is good. There are two layers, and you can use cat teasers to tease the cats. Although they don’t react much🥺🥺🥺Most cats are very docile and let you touch them. It is recommended to buy a box of cat food and put it in your hand to feed them. It is really a blessing to have your palm licked. But I would like to remind everyone to be careful as there are two rather aggressive cats. When the clerk was delivering cat food to us, one of the cats ran over and jumped onto the table. You can also go to the gashapon machine outside the store to draw cat badges, but unfortunately I didn’t get the one I wanted😭 [Food Review] 📍Rojiura Curry SAMURAI - Kichijoji🌟🌟🌟🌟 I just randomly entered a store with a comfortable environment, very good! The main dish is wild vegetable curry. I chose the sweet curry rice which was not spicy. It had a rich milky flavor and was delicious, but the amount of rice was a bit small. The curry was too delicious and it was not enough. Friends with a large appetite are advised to increase the amount of rice🍚🍚🍚 📍Fish and rice🌟 A sister restaurant of Genki Sushi, but the quality is not as good as Genki😥😥The sashimi and sushi are average. The main course was tempura udon. The tempura was not served separately on a plate, which caused the batter on the outside to become completely soft and could not be picked up with a clip🌩️. The only thing I thought was delicious was the mango sundae. Generally speaking, I don't recommend you to eat there. If you want to experience Japanese conveyor belt sushi, there are much better alternatives. #foodguide #foodphotography #trip #Japanesefood #relax #Japan #catcafe #curry #throwingthemine #sushi #citywalk #100waystotravel

We will introduce you to a steak restaurant with the best value for money. It is Yappari Steak, which became very popular in Okinawa and has opened branches in the Kanto region. The most popular Yappari Steak is the best value for money, starting at 1,000 yen for 150g! It is made with lean meat, and uses the misuji part, so it is soft and full of flavor. The lean meat is served piping hot and rare on a plate made of lava stone from Mt. Fuji. The lava stone is characterized by its far-infrared effect, which makes it plump, so it is fun to eat rare meat cooked to your liking! What's more, it comes with rice, salad, and soup, and you can have as many refills as you like, all for 1,000 yen!! It's amazing, isn't it? The meat is delicious, and it is a chain restaurant, so it is expanding its stores all over the country.

Capy Neko Cafe Address: 1-5-10 PLATANO 2F, Kichijoji Minamachi, Musashino City, Tokyo Business hours: 10:00-20:00 Fees: Admission fee: 2,800 yen for adults, 1,500 yen for children under 14 years old (50 minutes) Capy Neko Cafe, located in Kichijoji Minamachi, Musashino City, Tokyo, is a unique concept store that combines a cafe and a capybara house. This store opened in 2018 and was founded by the owner who loves animals. It aims to provide a space where customers can interact with the cute capybaras up close. As one of the few capybara-themed coffee shops in Tokyo, Capy Neko Cafe feels like a "hidden version" in Kichijoji, an area full of literary and youthful atmosphere. The store is not big, but it is carefully decorated into a warm and comfortable space, with capybaras and cats everywhere. This is not only a cafe, but also a paradise for capybaras and cats. ## Super cute Capybara When you walk into the store, the first thing you see is a lively and cute coffee shop ace - Mr. Capybara, playing leisurely in the center of the store. Capybaras are very cute small mammals. They are usually small in size, have short limbs, and have a pair of big round eyes that make people want to reach out and pet them. In the Capy Neko Cafe, you can see and interact with capybaras up close and feel their unique charm. ## The feeling of being surrounded by cute cats In addition to capybaras, another highlight of Capy Neko Cafe is the cute stray cats in the store. These cats are also adopted from animal rescue centers and enjoy a comfortable living environment here. They may lie lazily in the corner and take a nap, or they may interact with guests curiously, as if to tell you: Welcome to my territory! At Capy Neko Cafe, in addition to close contact with animals, you can also taste the unique atmosphere here. The café environment is warm and comfortable, allowing you to relax and add a touch of surprise to your journey. ## Zero barrier contact with capybara, hand feeding The biggest feature of Capy Neko Cafe is that it allows guests to interact with capybaras without any barriers. Here, you can hand-feed the capybaras under the guidance of the store staff and feel their soft fur and moist noses. This personal experience was unforgettable and deepened our understanding of this lovely creature. I spent an unforgettable afternoon at Capy Neko Cafe. It is a rare experience to be surrounded by cute capybaras and cats and feel their intimate interaction. This coffee shop not only provides unique interactive entertainment, but also arouses people's attention to animal welfare to some extent. I sincerely recommend this healing Capybara Cafe, where you will definitely have a pleasant and unforgettable time.

#黑毛和牛炸肉饼satou is a popular restaurant in Kichijoji Harmonica Yokocho. There is not much need to queue up on weekdays in the morning. The most basic wagyu fried meat patty is ¥300 per piece. There are also beef skewers ¥300, pork skewers ¥300, wagyu burgers ¥650, and croquettes are ¥200 in the prepared food area. The croquettes and other items are sold at a separate window, and there is usually no need to queue, except for the wagyu croquettes. The store itself is a butcher and the stall also sells meat. It also operates as a steak house. Whether you want raw, cooked, fried or pan-fried, they can satisfy you all at once. As for the taste, the meat patty is filled with minced beef mixed with a large amount of diced onions. It is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The sweetness of the gravy and onions is perfectly locked in. It tastes great when eaten hot! But be careful not to burn your mouth, and just eat one. Don't be greedy, or you'll get sick of it. The itinerary of Kichijoji can be planned together with Inokashira Park and Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, which takes about half a day. Inokashira Park is very large, and there is a zoo and an ecological pond. You need to make an appointment in advance to visit the Ghibli Museum, otherwise you can't even get in.

It's a hidden gem that I found out about thanks to a friend who's studying abroad in Japan☺️ The interior is filled with Ghibli characters and related props! Since it's not an officially licensed restaurant from Ghibli, the food and drinks aren't shaped like Ghibli characters or anything. However, if you order food or drinks, they will lend you a Ghibli character figure or doll to take pretty pictures with, and there are many elements throughout the store that will make Ghibli fans crazy😆 In the middle of the store, there was a giant Totoro, and the tables on both sides were the best seats👍🏻 I heard that it operates on a reservation basis, so you should probably make a reservation in advance! There is also a Totoro cream puff shop that is said to be run by Director Miyazaki's younger brother, about a 5-minute walk away, so it's perfect to stop by together💖 #Tokyo #TokyoTravel #Ghibli #GhibliEmotion #GhibliRestaurant #GhibliCafe #TokyoCafe #TokyoRestaurant

There is a matcha fair from April 1st to 30th, so I bought the limited-edition Uji Matcha Ogura Antaiyaki. I also bought the standard cream taiyaki and ate it on the spot.

▷Piwan About a 15-minute walk from Kichijoji Station. Located in a quiet area a little way from the main street is a color shop called Piwan. The interior of the shop, which is attached to a cafe, was stylish and the aroma of curry was in the air. It was located at the bottom of the stairs, so it was a place where you could relax and unwind. ▷Menu The menu I ordered this time was a two-item curry. You can choose two out of about five curries to order. They all looked delicious, so I had a hard time choosing... ▷Recommended points There are so many curry shops in Kichijoji that it's hard to decide where to go. If you want to eat a watery type of curry, this curry is recommended for those who say that! Why not try curry for lunch while visiting the cafes and miscellaneous goods shops in the area? #Tokyo #TokyoGourmet #TokyoGourmet #Curry #GourmetTrip #Gourmet

It’s a charming place filled with shops, restaurants, markets, and a beautiful park. If you’re in Tokyo, you can’t miss spending half a day here! Must-Visit Spot: Kichijoji Petit Village This is a dreamy place that feels like something straight out of a Miyazaki anime. It’s a small, cat-themed park where you can find a cat café, a gift shop, and tea rooms. Every corner is filled with cat-related touches, perfect for photos and a relaxing time.

💰Average consumption per person: 5,000 yen This restaurant is completely reservation-based and you must make a reservation online first! The most famous set meal in the store, "Omaki Coke," is a set meal filled with super cute Ghibli works. It is a set meal that can only be reserved for at least two people! I took the tram with my friends to the Corn Barley restaurant and pub which is very popular on social media. The restaurant is a 3-minute walk from the North Exit of JR Kichijoji Station. Both the environment and the meals are full of ritual sense ~ and of course the food is delicious too! Friends who are interested in Hayao Miyazaki can come and have a look 🥰 #GhibliFans #TokyoItinerary

Finally, the second store!!! PRINCESSTART, the fruit tart specialty store that has long lines every day in Nakameguro, is opening in Kichijoji on 5/3!!🥧 The lemon tart I was looking for was so delicious... There are many seasonal strawberry tarts, and the Omaou strawberry and pistachio Napoleon pie tart is especially delicious... 📍1F Blanche 18, 1-18-12 Kichijoji Honmachi, Musashino-shi, Tokyo 180-0004 #EnjoyJapan #PRINCESSTART #KichijojiCafe
