A Reunion with a Nostalgic Coffee Shop: Salt Yakisoba and a Milkshake on My Walk – Riri Ititama / Vtuber”
Today, please let me tell you about a wonderful little shop I found on one of my walks, which have become my daily routine lately.
Lately, I’ve been enjoying strolling leisurely around town.
Of course, I take days off when I have work schedules or when it rains… but on sunny, clear days, I sometimes stretch my legs a little farther♪
When you’re out walking, you find yourself drawn into shops you would normally just pass by, don’t you?
This time, it’s a story that began with just such a chance reunion.
☕ A Reunion with a Nostalgic Coffee Shop
The other day, while I was out walking, a nostalgic coffee shop I had visited just once long ago appeared before my eyes.
Thinking “Ah, this brings back memories…," I let myself be drawn inside.
The shop is a coffee shop, but actually, okonomiyaki and yakisoba are its main dishes (looking at the menu, you can’t help thinking, “Huh? Where’s the coffee shop part…? lol").
But please rest assured♪
Proper coffee shop staples like Neapolitan spaghetti and toast are on the menu too, and for some reason even the set meals are substantial – it’s a very mysterious yet comfortable space.
It was just lunchtime and I was hungry, so I ordered the menu items that caught my eye.
🍽️ A Happy Lunch
Here are the 2 dishes I ordered this time♪
🥢 Fragrant “Salt Yakisoba"
First, the meal.
Instead of sauce, I chose the refreshing “salt yakisoba".
It had an authentic flavor, like it was made on the iron griddle of an okonomiyaki shop, and my chopsticks just kept going✨
🥛 A Nostalgic “Milkshake"
And for dessert and accompaniment, I chose, of all things, a “milkshake"!
I don’t usually have the chance to drink one, but this was truly, incredibly delicious…!
Cold, gently sweet, with a faintly rich egg flavor.
It was exactly that “taste of nostalgia," and with every sip, a happy feeling spread through me.
●For readers in Japan, a nostalgic milkshake to enjoy at home is here♪
💭 Finally
In the middle of hectic everyday life, time spent forgetting the hours and relaxing like this is truly precious, isn’t it?
It was a wonderful refresh.
Do you have a shop near you that is “a little unusual, but a calming favorite" like this?
If you have any recommended menu items, please tell me✨
Well then, that’s all for today. Bye-tama~💖
