It's disappointing when cafes use IKEA tableware... If you use IKEA products, make sure to hide their coolness

While visiting my hometown in Matsumoto, Shinshu, I took a little trip to Ikaho Onsen. While many parking lots were full, the main stone steps were relatively empty. The morning temperature was in the teens. I was able to take some photos with the owner's favorite dreary vibe, and the relaxing atmosphere was...

4/29 (Fri) - 5/5 (Thu) Maruju Pottery Event Jamming [Shigaraki, Shiga Prefecture]

Shigaraki in Shiga Prefecture. It's a little far from Usagi to Boku, but we're grateful that some customers have come to visit us. This is a pottery manufacturer that is surely familiar to anyone who has visited Usagi to Boku. They make the cups we use for cafe lattes and milk coffee, as well as the mo...

Coffee and shops each have their own "path"

Monday. It's usually a relatively relaxed day, but it was unexpectedly busy. All the snacks, cakes, and baked goods in the store were gone, and by 15pm, only drinks were being served. We are closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I'd like to take my time and do some chores. Anyway, on my recent trip, I drank a lot of alcohol...

Hida Takayama is surprisingly a rabbit-loving town.

While walking leisurely through the old streets of Hida Takayama, he said with a sly smile, "If I were to open a store here with the concept of rabbits and me, I'm sure it would be a hit..." Now, let me continue with the story of my recent trip. Previously, I received souvenirs from Hida Takayama one after another from various customers...

I visited Jinaimachi in Tondabayashi where a special exhibition is being held.

I went to Tondabayashi Jinaimachi, where a special exhibition is being held... I took a day off today to visit Jinaimachi Tondabayashi, where 15banchi. is located, where a special exhibition "The Story of the Shops in That Town" is being held until the 23th. Many shops have the same regular holidays, so I would not be able to visit unless I took a day off...

That's right, this is the kind of place we want to cherish... It was a coffee shop that made me think that.

The Cream of the Crop Coffee is a shop that I remember very well. I wrote about my sister-in-law's wedding, but I haven't really written about the coffee events (SCAJ) or coffee shops I've visited in Tokyo. Since I went to Tokyo...

Those who have mastered their craft can communicate their intentions even without words...

Cafe Rosso (Shimane Prefecture)I was planning to go to Maruyama Coffee when I went back to Nagano, but my plans changed and I gave up. On my trip to Tottori, I went a little further and visited this place. It's not so much for study purposes, I'm just a fan... Cafe Rosso. The famous Kadowaki Bar...

The rabbit mecca of Tottori, Shirato Beach, is exciting but a bit untidy...

Unfortunately, there was no rabbit grilling... Speaking of rabbit sacred grounds, Okunoshima is a sacred place for rabbits, but I thought this was also a sacred place... and made it the destination of this trip. The area around "Shirato Beach" in Tottori, famous for the myth of the White Rabbit of Inaba. When I arrived, there was a heavy rain warning and it was pouring, so I couldn't wander around much...
