"A restaurant that's part of the HIKARU MUSEUM, the largest museum in the Chubu area. Guests dine on casual fare like pasta and curry and sweets like cakes and waffles in the wide-open shop with its large glass windows. The restaurant recommends its own soft and fluffy chiffon cake. Chiffon means ""silk fabric,"" and their additive and artificial flavor free banana chiffon cake is worthy of the name. Their ""jade ramen"" made with soft shell turtle extract, fried garlic, and specially made low-calorie chlorella noodles is also popular."

Review of Hikaru Museum Restaurant Viracocha
TripAdvisor Traveler RatingCheese-cake was not that good, but other cakes were better.
Seems like they have very nice lunch food-menu, but we did not try, since we were not...

Gifu Areas

Tucked away in the very center of Japan, Gifu prefecture houses mountains, old towns, and one of Japan's greatest hot springs, Gero Onsen. A tour of the prefecture's traditional architecture will take you from the mountain-enveloped wooden streets of Takayama to the mountain village of Shirakawago, where visitors can explore 250-year-old thatched roofed houses known as gassho-zukuri.
