Today’s one-plate lunch at “Little Bean Works”, my favorite neighborhood cafe. Okra, ham & peperoncino pasta, chicken rice and salad. Followed by an iced Caffe Latte and a Basque cheesecake. Life is good. 😌

Tokyo Sunday, Dec 7, 2025

Went to Nishi-Shinjuku, where after a cafe lunch & dessert, we enjoyed an exhibition of Maurice Utrillo paintings at the Sompo Museum of Art. Later, some Christmas decorations/ illumination in a nearby building.

Hi from Tokyo! For an outside lunch on today’s bank holiday (Autumn Equinox), we went to “Akabane Cafe にじいろのひつじ”, 10 minutes by bike from where I live. Shkmeruli (Georgian garlic chicken), coffee and sweet potato chiffon cake all hit the spot. 👍

Happy Monday from Tokyo!

Today is a bank holiday in Japan. It’s also relentlessly hot, but we went for lunch at “Sol’s Coffee Apartment”, a cafe located on the 2nd floor of a residential building a few bus stops south from our place. Croque Madame & Caffe Latte. 😋

Scorching hot weather in Tokyo today - so I didn’t feel like doing much more than go to “cafe arica”, my happy place in the Tokiwadai area of Itabashi Ward. The Gazpacho, Piadina, Tiramisu and Caffe Latte all hit the spot. 😋

I recently went to this old-school coffee shop in my area, “Caffe Bernini”. Iwasaki-san and his son run this gem of a place, in which they make, sell and brew their own roasts. See ALT texts.

After the drumming lesson, a delightful lunch at “cafe chocotto” in Komagome, Tokyo, followed by a short stroll through the decidedly retro-style Shimofuri Shopping Street.

I had free-drink tickets for "Excelsior Caffe" that were about to expire - can‘t let that happen, so we went for a cafe lunch & dessert. Also made some reading time (German version of Stieg Larsson‘s first "Millennium" book)

Today’s lunch in our neighborhood at “little bean works” in Azusawa, Itabashi Ward. Main dish was carbohydrates to the power of two, but delicious nonetheless - followed by Caffe Latte & cheesecake.

Café Lunch; Feb 23, 2025

“cafe arica” in Tokiwadai, Itabashi, is a favorite Tokyo spot, and we went for a relaxed late lunch today. Main dish was Piadina, followed by a delicious Tiramisù and a great Latte. ☕️
