About

A quiet cafe in a calm residential area at 3-23-4 Botan, Koto City, a 6-minute walk from Monzen-Nakacho Station on the Tokyo Metro Tozai Line. Owner-chef Fujiko Hoshi trained at long-running Western-style restaurants such as Suehiro and Tsubame Grill, and is also a grandmother of four. The shop centers on house-made, gentle dishes and also offers vegan and gluten-free options, quietly supported by local guests and visitors from overseas.

— From Western-style restaurants to a quiet cafe

The signature dishes are house-made, gentle dishes that use plenty of fresh seasonal vegetables. Owner-chef Fujiko Hoshi trained for many years at well-known Western-style restaurants in Tokyo such as Suehiro and Tsubame Grill, and her menu brings together that skill and the home-style cooking she knows as a grandmother of four. She also draws on international cooking techniques and the use of spices, and offers vegan and gluten-free options. The hours are unusual: breakfast (9:00 to 11:00), lunch (11:00 to 14:00), and cafe time (14:00 to 16:00), with dinner only on Wednesdays and Fridays (18:00 to 21:00). As a quiet cafe in a residential area, it is loved by local guests and also visited by people from overseas. The address is 3-23-4 Botan, Koto City.

“Monzen-Nakacho — mom's flavor with GF accommodation”

A small café-restaurant tucked in a residential area of Monzen-Nakacho, Koto Ward. In an at-home space like coming back to your own home, you can enjoy delicious homemade dishes (mom's flavor). It originally started as a shop where mom wanted people to enjoy her cooking, but when the eldest daughter (me) developed wheat intolerance, they began offering allergen-adapted menus including gluten-free. With many international tourists in recent years, they wanted to provide a place where everyone — regardless of belief, culture, or allergies — could enjoy safe and delicious food, so they prepared allergy-friendly dishes and sweets in addition to the regular menu. (Outside lunch peak times, the proportion of international customers seeking gluten-free is overwhelming.) Breakfast menu items like rice flour pancakes and waffles. Voluminous lunches like karaage and ginger pork. Sweets like banana bread and chocolate brownie. Carefully brewed coffee — a diverse menu enjoyable any time of day. 〈Allergy Accommodation〉 Though the kitchen is shared, frying pans, oils, seasonings, and utensils are used separately, and they pay close attention to prevent cross-contamination, providing every consideration possible so allergic guests can dine with peace of mind. 〈Upon Visit〉 The interior is small with many fragile glass items, so stroller entry is difficult — inconvenient for those with small children. If you consult in advance, they can provide dishes beyond what's listed on the menu — feel free to inquire.

4年前に小麦不耐症とわかるまで、パンやケーキ、うどんなど小麦を使った食べ物が大好きで、小麦がない生活なんて考えられなかったほどでした🥺 今では、グルテンフリーでも美味しいパンやスイーツを探す過程自体が楽しみになり、工夫しながら新たな食生活を満喫しています♡
