There are plenty of spots to enjoy and reminisce about those days! "Satoyama Shokudo" is based on the concept of school lunch time There are many menus that remind you of those days. You can enjoy nostalgic flavors in the classrooms, such as whales and ham cutlets, as well as lockers and blackboards that recreate school lunches. In the huge market shop that uses the gymnasium, you can buy original products from Yasuda Elementary School and local specialties. When you think of Chiba, you think of loquats. The loquat soft serve ice cream was incredibly delicious. The best thing about this roadside station is that it uses the school's classrooms as accommodation!
