Good food in nature! - Edit
If you want to eat good food surrounded by nature this is your place. While I was living in Saitama I came here a lot. The building with terrace near the river is just beautiful and has a European flair. You can walk and hike around the restaurant, too.

Carrot cake!!! - Edit
Beautiful spot near river and a random surprise on our walk to a hike. Staff speak great English and the organic store next door was a nice find. We took a brownie to go on the hike and it was more cakey but wouldn't super recommend (good as a non sugary treat) but we had the carrot cake with soy ice cream on their patio later and I loved it. Ice cream with nicely spiced and carrot cake tasted super healthy and dense (not sweet) but so good! 550 yen for cake and ice cream is a good price
Read morePros: Carrot cake, Price , Beautiful spot
Cons: Brownie

Cozy Meals and Desserts - Edit
A great place for a cozy meal in the countryside. We went there a couple of times, the second time during the annual spider lily festival at Kinchakuda. It was quite busy because of the festival, but the service was still fast and efficient. There are a lot of vegan options, and everything was very delicious! We had the vegan curry, the daily soup (pumpkin coconut), the vegan cheese toast, the carrot cake with soy milk ice-cream, and we took a brownie to go.

Good food - Edit
Good place for vegans who want to get out of the city and explore the country side. Several vegan dishes and desserts and most drinks can be made with soy milk. Ingredients taste very good and presenation is top notch.

Great stews with local vegetables - Edit
We loved this place last Fall. We had a tasty stew. The restaurant was very reasonably priced and extremely delicious. Beautiful restaurant on the river. We thought the little natural grocery store attached was over priced.

Great food and great atmosphere! The service was excellent, and the prices were reasonable...even the other patrons were very nice to us. A little out of the way, in terms of location...but the backdrop is wonderful!

Amazing Food and Drink - Edit
Called in on Sat 12-6-10 whilst hiking in the area. Food was excellent and Lemongrass Tea refreshing. Service was prompt and professional. All round very pleasant experience. (I am not a vegetarian so cannot comment on that)
