An absolutely beautiful cafe in the hills of Ena. The garden is a pleasure to walk through, and there are a couple places to sit down and just enjoy the fresh air and lovely nature. The cafe itself was renovated by the kind couple that runs it, a Japanese woman and a man from Maldives. It's a perfect place to spend an hour or a few when the weather is good. Lots of nice little antiques and knickknacks all over the place, so between that and the garden your eyes will never get bored. I subtracted one star just because the prices are quite high, especially given the small portions. The food was tasty and healthy, though. We would definitely like to go back regularly.

小さな看板とともに、自然の中にひっそりと佇む古民家カフェ。 プリンが食べたくて、Googleで調べて訪れました。 店内はアンティーク調のインテリアに包まれ、ドライフラワーがたくさん飾られています。 季節によっては、テラス席も利用できそうな心地よい雰囲気でした。 メニューにはデザートプレートがあり、迷わずプリン付きのプレートを注文。 固めのプリンは、満足感のある美味しさでした。 遅めのティータイムだったため、閉店間際までゆったりと過ごさせていただきました。 また機会があれば、ぜひ伺いたいと思います。

Some of the best curry I’ve had in Japan. The first bite almost brought tears to my eyes, it was so delicious. The dessert was also delicious. Not to mention, the AMAZING atmosphere and decorations. It felt so magical. The staff member was wonderful. He can speak at least three languages, Japanese and English included. He explained the nature of every dish. I’m pretty sure you need a reservation. I called an hour before I planned on going and there was availability. This is place is not cheap, but the price is definitely WORTH IT. A hidden gem for sure.

ハーブ園の様な素敵なお庭と古民家風の建物。ネット予約をして伺いました。接客は全て独りで注文してから、しばらくだれも出てこない!?少しずつ時間をずらしてゆっくりと出てくるシステムです。時間のある時にのんびりと伺うのがイイと思います

ドライブがてらフラッと立ち寄りました。あまり開けられていない中、たまたま開いててラッキー。 本格チャイを頂きました。 オーナーの雰囲気、お店の雰囲気、食器のチョイス、自然・景色の雰囲気、全てゆったりゆっくり心地よく、よい隠れ家見つけたと感じられました。 時間を忘れてゆっくり出来ます。 閉店ギリギリまで過ごしてしまいました(オーナー、すみません)。

駐車場で車を降りた時から雰囲気が周りと違っていました。玄関までのアプローチは、庭の色とりどりの草花が迎えてくれました。田舎の????????日本の古民家をイメージしていたのですが、和と洋を上手く改装した内装でした。要予約ランチは2種類で、スパイスカレーソーセージとスパイスカレーを注文しました。チキンが柔らかく煮込まれていてピリ辛のカレールーととてもマッチして美味しかったです。ソーセージはそのままで味がしっかりして、今までに食べた事のない味付けと歯応えでした。夫婦で来店したのですが、主人はご飯とルーを追加すればよかったと言ってました。 女子会ランチには花丸です。お店の雰囲気も最高でしたが、店の奥様とご友人らしい方たちが、少し大きな声で長話ししていたのが気になりました。
