My friend gave me a small sweet present of Kyoto.
‘Cha no Ka’ is langue de chat made with plenty of special Japanese green tea using strictly selected tea leaves grown in Uji-Shirakawa, Kyoto.

And, special white chocolate is sandwiched in between 2 pieces of green tea langue de chat.
We are able to enjoy the aromatic green tea leaves and the taste also.

Two of cool artists 203gow and Keiko Miyata hold their exhibition, named “Ami to Nui no SF”. It means SF world of knitting and sewing. The door to another dimension was quite simple but the door-nob was something different – as promised start of story-telling…

it was wonderful so many colorful creatures came down from ceilings! Some of them are far bigger than us, but looks like they’re floating.

I love the dip-dyed cuffs with dusty blue and the very soft and stretchy material.
And, the light and thin T-shirt makes me very comfortable.

I found a lovely picture book at a bookstore.
It’s titled Flip Fashion, illustrated by Lucille Cerc, a London-based artist.

Shimokitazawa Kadoya

kadoya_1

Kadoya is a casual izakaya in Shimokitazawa.
You can have some interesting and good “Osaka food” at there.
I tried tonpei-yaki, fresh chopped cabbage and well-done pork slice are wrapped in thin omelette. It’s like okonomiyaki, but crispy cabbage says its difference.
