• One of My Favourites In Osaka

I've come to Le Coccole MANY times, and have had a great experience more often than any other cafe in Osaka. The owner, Tomomi, is really kind and helpful, and I recommend talking to her if you can! (she does speak some English). The veggie lunch and dinner plates are different every day, as she uses mainly seasonal organic produce from her brother's farm in Nara. I really feel like I can trust her to serve the healthiest, freshest meal possible. The desserts are also really nice, as are the smoothies and hot drinks. Yes she does use honey sometimes in some of the hot beverages :( Please check if you're unsure - she will understand easily if you are vegan and use another sweetener. Occasionally some dishes are too salty or oily, but generally it's fine. The atmosphere is quirky and cute, and it's nice sitting outside under the veranda on a nice day. Unfortunately she does allow people to smoke outside if they like, which I don't understand - but usually no one is doing so. Although it has some imperfections, Le Coccole gets 5/5 in my books because it's pretty darn close to perfect. Updated from previous review on 2016-10-09
