    新幹線改札口近くにあるので、ちょっと買って車内で食べようかなーという心理によく働く憎い立地!メイプルを買って、温めてもらいました。車内に入ってすぐ食べ始めましたが、もう冷めてました。あつあつに温めるんではないんですね、まあ、おいしかったので良かったですが、温かいのを食べたかったです。月に合わせて限定味も充実しています。

    開店前より早く行きました。5分から10分早く行くとそんなに待たなくて良さそうでした。せっかくなのでスペシャリテを。正直なところ、スペシャリテは私の好みではなく、メニューの中で好みを選べばよかったかなとも思いました。しかし、ケーキも別に頼んでよかったなと。ケーキは非常に美味しかったです。1つしか食べられなかったのが残念。

Kyoto Areas

Its wooden tea houses, shuffling geisha, and spiritual sights have seen Kyoto hailed as the heart of traditional Japan, a world apart from ultramodern Tokyo. Despite being the Japanese capital for over a century, Kyoto escaped destruction during World War II, leaving behind a fascinating history which can be felt at every turn, from the fully gold-plated Kinkakuji Temple down to traditional customs such as geisha performances and tea ceremonies, which are still practiced to this day.
