This time, we dined outside. The weather was wonderful, and we were able to enjoy our meal in a very pleasant atmosphere. The service staff were attentive and thoughtful, which made the experience truly exceptional. The food was also delicious — especially the spring cabbage roll, which was outstanding. For dessert, the roasted (Hōji-mochi) ice cream was particularly delightful.
