Old books and tearooms: The home of words

Immerse yourself in the world of books at Kuramaguchi's book cafe [Old Books and Tearoom Kotoba no Haoto]

This book café, located in a machiya townhouse, is lined with an array of old books, offering a relaxing immersion in the world of books. In the tatami-mat room overlooking the garden, you will find a diorama of a railroad, travel books, and a cat corner with a collection of books about cats.

Nyan Cat Parfait 1,375 yen. (The contents change according to the season because seasonal fruits are used.) It includes a cat with panilla ice cream, chocolate and strawberry ice cream, chiffon cake, yogurt mousse, and strawberry compote jelly.

The signature item on the menu, the kitten parfait, started out as a charity event for shelter cats. The parfait is available only after 1:00 p.m., but you can order before 1:00 p.m. if you order with a drink or lunch.
