Muu Muu Diner Umeda NU Chayamachi Plus Ten

Muu Muu Diner Umeda NU Chayamachi Plus Ten is a restaurant where you can casually enjoy Hawaiian dishes such as loco moco and pancakes.

Not only does the interior have a cozy feel, but the open terrace seats with their airy atmosphere also have a great vibe. It is nice that you can choose between the indoor seating and the terrace depending on the weather and temperature.

Of course this place is great for using as a cafe, but if you stop by for a meal, the recommended choice is the set menu that comes with one item selected from 9 main dishes and 6 sweets, plus a salad.

“MuuMuu's loco moco with garlic shrimp” is a rich plate that lets you enjoy two popular Hawaiian dishes at once. It is said to be excellent when you mix the sauce with the rice.

The pancakes are said to be so good they rival those from a specialty shop. Reviews also say they have a light and airy texture, while still letting you enjoy the nice aroma of the browned surface.

The photo shows the "Baked Apple Pancake." It is said to have an excellent balance of the apple's sweetness and tartness.

When you step inside, it’s Surprising, it really feels like Hawaii!!!The background music plays mellow Hawaiian tunes, and the terrace seating area feels like a resort. It made me think I’d love to come here on a hot summer day~

It is a compact restaurant, but it did not feel cramped, the food came quickly, and it was very comfortable. I ordered the sweets set, and they brought it out at just the right time after I finished the main dish. The meat in the main dish was tender, and the mini pancakes were just the right size, so I was very Manzoku.

mitoco

Mitoco is a cafe with the charm of a hidden retreat. It is known as a place that makes you want to come back again and again, thanks to its limited-time sweets that appear regularly.

The cafe also has a spacious open terrace. It is open from morning to night, so you can enjoy the changing views of Nakazakicho (Nakazaki neighborhood) depending on the time of day.

One dish that even fans of yoshoku (Japanese-style Western food) will rave about is the Demi-glace Hamburger Steak and Fried Shrimp.

The soft and airy Hamburger Steak comes with a rich but not heavy demi-glace sauce, and the fried shrimp is served with a chunky tartar sauce with plenty of egg, and even the sauces are said to be excellent.

If you're stopping by for coffee, the cute-looking chiffon cake is a great pick.

It comes with plenty of rich cream, but the sweetness is mild and easy to enjoy, and it pairs perfectly with black tea.

There are not many cafes open late in Temma, so this is really helpful! I ordered the carrot cake, and the moist cake had a clear blend of the spices that are unique to carrot cake, so it was very delicious. It looked like they also serve Breakfast, so next time I would like to come for Breakfast!

I always use the terrace seats here. The stylish terrace seating makes it a great place to enjoy a meal or a cafe break outside in the coming season.

Warara

Warara is a cafe with great access from Nakazakicho Station, and its Breakfast is well regarded.

The interior is said to be a calm space decorated with antiques. On nice days, the open terrace seating feels great too.

The "Half & Half Brunch," which lets you choose 2 kinds of toast, is popular.

The toast gets good reviews for being crisp, and toppings like eggs are said to have a nicely rich seasoning and taste great. It is perfect when you want to fuel up with solid energy from the morning.

The "Hot Curry Sandwich" is made with the restaurant's popular dry curry.

The rich curry, slowly simmered with multiple spices, is paired with a soft-boiled egg that adds a mild touch.

There were so many Breakfast, brunch, and lunch menu options that it was really hard to choose. For the half and half toast, I picked butter and pizza, and the bread was soft and delicious!
