もともと紅茶の専門店ですが、紅茶との組み合わせで食べられるパンの味がかなり良い感じで、ベーコンエッグのサンドイッチと組み合わせたり、フレンチトーストと合わせたりしますが、どちらも紅茶の味を引き立てる感じがして、とても良いです。ただ、フレンチトーストは乗っているクリームの品質がいいせいか価格もかなり高めで1260円もするので、ちょっと予算は多めに必要な感じのお店です。

Nagano Areas
Nagano prefecture is an exciting mix of mountains, hot spring monkeys, and preserved Edo history. At the heart of the Japanese Alps, Nagano is one of the country’s most popular destinations, whether in winter for its snow sports and the much-loved Jigokudani Monkey Park or in the warmer months for discovering the undulating hills on foot. For fantastic Edo architecture, head to the Kiso Valley for a 60-kilometer stretch of quaint wooden buildings that marked the Nakasendo route 200 years ago.
