Hatake Cafe Oishii

July 3, 2007 By Michael Lambe 2 Comments

UPDATE 2010: Another victim of the economic decline. This place I’m told closed in September.
This is a woody little place, with counter and table seats and a down to earth atmosphere. Lunch is a set menu (changes daily) with brown rice, miso soup and a salad type appetizer all for ¥700. If you have a drink after lunch, it’s another ¥100, otherwise a cup of chai will set you back ¥400, and coffee ¥350.In the evening they also serve stronger beverages. The menu is big on vegetables fresh from the field cooked in such away that not a smidgin of flavor is lost. All the vegetables are grown naturally and organically by the owner in his own “hatake” or little farm. On past visits I’ve had the omelette and tofu steak and some vegetable gyouza (steamed dumplings) which were made specially for me as I don’t eat meat. And I thought that was very nice of them indeed. Here’s that ¥700 lunch.

Opening hours are 12:00~16:00 and 18:30~24:00 and Saturdays are evenings only. To find it go north from Hyakumanben on Higashioji Dori and take the first turning on the right. You will pass a whisky bar, quaintly named “Post Coitus”, take the next left and it’s on the left again. Here is a MAP.

    Damn! That’s a pity! A lot of old favorites places are going that way… Thanks for letting me know.
