Kokyuan (Tea Shop)



Hey! I made this blog to keep track of places I go to eat. This is my first post, and although I'm not expecting any readers, welcome to the blog!

Date
: Fall-ish 2008


Location: Sakai, Osaka


Price: Bit expensive for the cake, lunch menu is reasonable


What: Well, it's a shop that makes castella cakes dusted in edible gold. How is the cake? Yeah, for some reason, I didn't try it, I had a delicious stew(?) instead because I wanted a lunch set. The place was built on the grounds of some ancient tea master's residence and behind the shop there's a charming garden and tea house. We wanted to have our wedding reception here until they told us they don't have a liquor licence D: Anyhow, it is a lovely place so by all means check it out.
