moon cafe & moon eyes

Lunch was about a 20 minute walk from Sankeien at Moon Cafe
I love the wide sidewalks and trees in this area!

 

Go around to the left side of the building to put your name on the waiting list 

You can choose between the counter, a booth or outside, we just told them whereever opened up first
While you wait you can check out the vintage cars 

And check out Moon Eyes, which is part museum, part knick knack shop and they also sell car parts too



It was blazing, so we were lucky to be seated inside

Satoshi had the small loco moco...he said this was close to the "real deal"...1430 yen (tax included)

1 scoop rice (under the patty & egg (look at that yolk!)) with brown gravy and mac salad

The reason we were eating here was because I saw their Honolulu Chow Mein on Matsuko's show ("Matsuko no Shiranai Sekai") which is similar to Fried Saimin...1540 yen (tax included)

I ordered this without rice or soup

A bit greasy, this had lots of spam, kamaboko & green onions...delicious! I love when the noodles are on the dry side

Kat had a lemonade with her lunch...495 yen (tax included)

Love the interior!
Satoshi had a cream soda....990 yen (tax included)

I showed Satoshi how to get a straw from the canister on the table
counter seating and condiments
the fortune cookie was junk...but the fortune had an important message...
Their butter mochi was similar to what we have in Hawaii, though I think this one was that butter mochi mix version not from scratch...770 yen (tax included)
The bathroom was something to see
Everything was a bit pricey...our total was 5225 yen (tax included) 

Still, I'm glad we got to try this place

If I'm ever in this area again, I'd like to try their mochiko chicken or their burgers
