I have lived in Fujinomiya over 45 years and I enjoy to eat with my friends and family at nice restaurants or cafes. I also like to study English. I want to tell hot informations about many wonderful local restaurants and cafes in Fujinomiya to the people coming from other countries.My English is not very good.So I always welcome someone to tell me my mistakes.Have fun to read my blog!
Do you want to have relax time with friends?
If so I recommend Kaguya in Fuji.

It is on the top of Iwamoto mountain.The cafe is in the middle of nature. When I was there,I could feel fresh breeze and hear birds humming from the forest.They also have marvellous view.

They have enough amount of fresh vegetable for each dishes.And they were so much that we couldn’t eat everything.
I was very surprised.Because many people were making the line in spite of weekday.This cafe has opened this spring,so it's getting popular and hot spot in these days.
I don't think that the reason are only good food and location.There are different taste of atmosphere such as sophisticated ,urban and nature.
When they are mixed up,it attracts peaple.And it makes them go there again.
You can have excellent relax time on the comfortable sofas in nice atmosphere with good food and view there.
If you want to have heart warming experience at a restaurant,you should go to Andante in Fujinomiya.You can find special foods for healing someone's heart.
The entrance
They have wooden deck and large green glass garden in front of them.Sometimes visitor put the hummock there and enjoy their time.
inside
When I went there with friends for the first time,they were not ready to open.We said「 We can wait for you forever.Because we have enough time today,or rather we need enough time for chatter.」
They not only welcomed us but also surved unexpected dishes as a token of their apology.
Every dishes we took were so good. I took the salmon and spinach quiche.I could enjoy genuine taste.It made me notice that they don't use any fake ingredient like shortening ,mixed flowers and any processed food.
I guess they take long time for cooking and do their best any time.
They were filled the hearts of hospitality.I am sure it will satisfy you.
The dish of the day:quiche with salmon and spinach
They also have good sense of food presentation.
The dish of the day:fried pork
Andante is famous for its waffle.They gave us it as a token of their apology as I wrote above.The waffle was tightly packed rather than light like genuine Belgian style.It was so nice.
Fruit waffle
The only thing I am sorry is they only open weekends.
But it is worth to use your weekends for going there.
If so,you should go to Do ikki in Fujinomiya.
Because they has wonderful panorama view.
You can see it from the many window side seats.
They also have romantic bench seats which makes you close each other .
There are two open air tables.They are best places in spring,summer and autumn.You can feel the gentle breeze of the forest and hear the chorus of birds.
At the night time you can see amazing night view from there.
They have not only nice view but also food.
The most popular dish is Naporitan.
It is Japanese special pasta fried with sliced ham,onion,pepper with ketchup.
Naporitan with 1drink \1050
You can find fried egg over digging.It is great taste.
You can choose other 3 taste of pasta.
They have good enough kind of bread dishes.
Most Japanese like dish is Anko toast.It is the baked toast on sweet beans.
This is it adding fruits version.
Fruits Anko toast with 1drink \800
They have 38 years history .They have been loved by many people living here for a long time.
I also used to go Do ikki when I was a youth.I had some fun nights at there with my friends .I was sometimes jealous of lovers there.Time flys so fast😉
It is amazing that they have kept great atmosphere same as at that time.
Or rather it's getting better.The years have mellowed this cafe.
I can't write down everything bellow.Please kindly note that these are parts of the Menu.
