winner + caffera galleria

First of all, I want to thank all of you who entered the giveaway. It was really interesting reading your comments. I hope that you will be inspired to travel to Japan, re-visit or explore new areas. I used a random number generator and came up with the winner....the winner of the giveaway...is Jenster! Please email me (kat (dot) nsatoshi (at) gmail (dot) com) your snail mail address, I'm going to try to send the box out on Monday. Thanks again for all of your comments, maybe I'll have another giveaway in 2009.

I want to tell you about a cafe that I ate at on Tuesday.

Caffera Galleria is located in Daimaru Umeda on the 4th floor. They are related to this shop, but they have better food.

After French class, I couldn't decide what I wanted to eat for lunch , walked around a bit, and found myself here.

It was my first time to try this place, and I am glad I did. I had their Toscana-style salad plate (1260 yen about US$12.60). It came with your choice of drink. I chose a cappuccino. The regular price of a cappuccino is 630 yen (about US$6.30), so I thought the price of the lunch was kind of reasonable.

This salad reminded me of a Nicoise salad. The bread was olive bread and the dressing had anchovies in it.

It was a good sized portion and filled me up.

I wouldn't mind eating here again sometime.
