This is my first time staying in Yinggu. Of course, I have to find out if there are any restaurants I want to eat at. #デン (DEN) is a coffee shop that was featured in the Japanese drama "The Solitary Gourmet". The whole space creates a retro atmosphere, such as wooden walls matched with a fabric sofa with gorgeous patterns. However, there will be regular customers smoking indoors, so if you are concerned about the smell of smoke, you may want to consider this. In addition, the food preparation process is relatively slow, so it is not suitable if you are in a hurry. 🍞Grapan Mix (JPY 980) The portion is scary, it’s a very thick toast! Hollow out the middle part and put in the sauce and bake it. The whole thing is super fragrant. 🥪 Sandwich Mix (JPY 680) I haven't had company sandwiches for a long time. One side is scrambled eggs + ketchup, and the other side is ham + lettuce. 🥪Topst Tamagotchi (JPY 530) The scrambled egg toast with baked bottom is seasoned with ketchup and tastes great. It was still slightly hot when it was served, so it must have been prepared upon order. ☕️Brand Code (JPY 400) A refreshing coffee that is easy to drink even with milk but no sugar. If you live nearby, you can come and feel as if time has stood still. . . DEN 📍Address: 3-3-18 Negishi, Taito-ku, Tokyo ⏰Business hours: 9:00 - 18:30 (Closed on Thursdays and Sundays) #Sign up for hotel test sleeper

#japantrip I heard that they have released a limited-time menu perfect for the holiday season, and I had been curious about it for a while, so I decided to check it out. The baked apple parfait is inspired by crème brûlée, and has apple pulp that gives you an enjoyable texture, refreshing jelly, and mousse alternately.It's rich but not too cloying, so you can eat it all in one go. The mille-feuille was a crispy pastry sandwiched with baked apples and plenty of custard, and went perfectly with the tea. The store has two floors, both of which are equipped with power and Wi-Fi, making it suitable for work. Great atmosphere too! Recommended cafes in Ueno I wish the number of seats could be increased a little more. Location : Taito city, tokyo, Japan Open Hours: 08:00 - 20:00
