As the refreshing air of autumn spreads, walking around the town has become a fun season.
"Nihonbashi district" has been attracting attention recently. A long-standing plan to relocate the Metropolitan Expressway over the Nihonbashi River to the basement and restore the bright Nihonbashi appearance has begun, and many people are expecting it.
The other day, at the request of a tourist association, I guided a high school student inspection group from China. At the lecture meeting, I listened very interestingly to the stories about the history and culture of Nihonbashi. Also, when I actually walked around the town and provided tourist information, I was asked various questions. The appeal of this area seems to be interesting to foreigners.
That was the case with that day, but when I have a little time in Nihonbashi, I often visit [Mikado Coffee] using the adjustment until the meeting. It would be nice to spend a relaxing time on the second floor, but I really like the standing style on the first floor. It's a reasonable price, and I'd like a place where you can change your mind quickly.
It is said that [Mikado Coffee] opened in Nihonbashi in 1948 (Showa 23), but in fact, I knew earlier about the former Karuizawa store that opened in 1952 (Showa 27). The old light shop, which has been loved for a long time in the resort area, has been visited by many celebrities. John Lennon, Mrs. and Mrs. Yoko also visited. "Mocha Soft" is famous.
After that, after knowing the main store in Nihonbashi, I use it because it is a local Chuo-ku. Of course, you can also have "Mocha Soft" here. But coffee is the main one. As you value the acidity, the freshness of citrus fruits and the scent like flowers spread in your mouth.
It is a shop where you can easily drop in during a walk in Nihonbashi. How about a coffee break in the city?
