RAN’S CAFE

One visitor’s memorable finish to lunch was the coffee cheesecake: moist, dense and a good match for tea. The menu lists the Original Coffee Cheesecake for 450 yen, alongside Mont Blanc, tea chiffon cake and molten chocolate cake. You could linger over dessert after a satisfying meal, or simply take a break with cake and a drink.

For a meal, the daily plate offers a different main dish to choose from. One visitor ordered chicken with green onion and salt, recalling a plate of the main, side dishes, salad and rice served with miso soup. They described the chicken as tender and juicy. Other listed daily options include a Korean-style spicy pork and vegetable stir-fry, and chicken with lotus root in mayonnaise sauce. The lunch plate is listed at 830 yen and comes with salad, rice and soup. Diners have also praised the generous salad and homemade carrot dressing, giving the accompaniments their own appeal.

For something fried, the mixed-fry plate combines horse mackerel fry, pork fillet cutlet and fried squid. It costs 900 yen and comes with salad, rice and soup. The weekly pasta plate is another option; the menu lists carbonara and tomato sauce with 2 kinds of mushrooms, among other choices. One diner who ordered pasta praised the ample salad and tasty dressing, and the accompanying salad and soup look set to round out the meal.

For breakfast, Set A includes toast, egg salad and a drink for 480 yen. Set B includes a choice of toast or croissant, mini salad and a drink for 550 yen. Breakfast is served from 8:30 to 11:00, Tuesday to Sunday. With a calm atmosphere and options for lunch as well, the café also suits a solo meal.
