A hearty lunch limited to 15 meals per day! A cozy old-style cafe (Yokote, Minami-ku, Fukuoka City)
Hello! I'm hicho_cafe, who posts information about Fukuoka, mainly about cafes, on Instagram.
This time, I would like to introduce some recommended restaurants for both lunch and cafe time.
Enjoy a cozy time at the traditional Japanese café "Cafe Keifu" (Yokote, Minami-ku, Fukuoka City)
Cafe Keifu is an old-style Japanese-style cafe located in Yokote, Minami-ku, Fukuoka city, along the Nagahama-Dazaifu line.
It is about a 15-minute walk or 5-minute drive from Nishitetsu Ijiri Station.
Once you pass through the noren curtain, you'll find yourself in a charming garden.
You have to take off your shoes before entering the store.
The cozy space was created by renovating an old house and has 20 seats.
Large windows overlook the beautiful gardens.
Limited to 15 meals per day! "Keifu Vegetable Plate" made with plenty of Itoshima vegetables
This restaurant offers the "Keifu Vegetable Plate" (2,200 yen) every day during lunch time from 11:00 to 14:00, with only 15 plates available.
The menu changes depending on the season and what is available. On the day I visited, the main dish was "spring rolls" filled with chrysanthemum, shrimp, cottage cheese, and minced chicken breast.
The crispy skin was stuffed with plenty of filling and it was a very satisfying main dish.
Furthermore, depending on the day it is topped with a different topping, either "Itoshima Raizan Pork," "Aso Wild Pork Salsiccia," or "Ham," and on this day it was "Aso Wild Pork Salsiccia."
The juicy and satisfying salsiccia goes perfectly with the many Itoshima vegetables served on the plate.
All Itoshima vegetables are fresh.
In particular, the "Marinated Purple Cabbage" and "Carrot Sappée" had a crunchy texture and were my personal favorites!
When you crack open the egg of the Oeuf Mayonnaise, you'll find a runny yolk inside!
It's delicious on its own, but we also recommend eating it with the surrounding vegetables.
Other dishes on the plate included potato salad, chickpeas, tofu made from Itoshima soybeans, and steamed vegetables from Itoshima, making for a very satisfying meal.
But! That's not all...
Soup and toast are also served on separate plates.
The soup for the day was "Daikon and Yuzu Potage Soup."
The smooth soup combined with the refreshing aroma and acidity of yuzu made for a comforting flavor perfect for the cold season.
The toast is topped with plenty of homemade basil butter.
You can enjoy the rich aroma of basil and the crispy toast.
The set menu introduced so far (plate, soup, toast) costs 2,200 yen, but you can also get it with a drink for 2,530 yen, or with a drink and mini dessert for 2,860 yen.
The mini desserts change depending on the day, so if you're interested, please check with the store.
There are many other attractive menu items!
Besides the "Keifu Vegetable Plate," we'll also introduce some other popular menu items.
Wagyu beef cheek meat in a spiced curry
This is the "Melty Wagyu Beef Cheek Spice Curry" (1,760 yen a la carte, 2,090 yen with drink, 2,420 yen with drink and mini dessert).
This curry is made using a rare cut of beef, of which only 1kg can be obtained from one cow. The cheek meat is slowly simmered until tender and tender, making a perfect match with the spicy curry.
Pudding with seasonal fruits
"Seasonal Fruit Pudding" (880 yen) uses different fruits depending on the season. Until the end of April 2024, it will be garnished with plenty of strawberries.
The pudding is made using eggs from Itoshima and has a traditional firm texture.
It is also possible to change it to vanilla pudding.
