Cat in Front of Stove Kyoto Nama Chocolat Organic Tea House

Cat in Front of Stove Kyoto京都生チョコのレストランにストーブ前の猫

On a cold winter day last week, a bitter ride over to the Heian Shrine area led to the discovery of the Kyoto Nama Chocolat Organic Tea House.

Housed in a comfortable old house on a side street near the Kampo Cultural Center, the restaurant serves delicious chocolate sets with coffee, tea, or green tea.

The building is more or less as it was when the owners bought it. There are byobu screens, tatami mats, low tables, and painted fusuma.

In addition, a friendly Irish Setter was at the entrance and a cat curled up in front of a stove.

The view from the table was of a small Japanese garden spreading out from the engawa porch.
