“Turret coffee”, a stylish café is located at one street off the main street. It serves “third wave coffee”. Turret, name of café means a small motorcar running in the market to carry goods. There is a turret displayed in the café. The café looks like a refurbished warehouse which reminds you of a factory. At the same time it has a combination of a factory and something Japanese such as Japanese tableware and “Tatami” area. The café is also very popular for coffee with very good quality. A fresh cup of coffee with a relaxing atmosphere here is a must. Why not make a pause at the famous café?

“Dora-yaki” is a traditional Japanese pastry. Two pieces of small pancakes pasted together with “Anko” (sweet bean paste) in between. In Japan we eat it with tea but it is good to have it with coffee or café-latte as well. It’s cool to enjoy Japanese sweets at café, isn’t it?
Enjoy espresso with a Japanese cup. It’s something special.
