Kissako Katsute

The old town, situated near JR Takayama station, is a popular tourist spot where ancient buildings still stand. It feels as if you time-travelled back in the Edo period here. Among many long-standing restaurants and cafés, I would like to recommend you to stop by Kissako Katsute if you are walking around in this area. You can't miss this historic-looking café with a black lattice door and noren shop curtain. Here you can enjoy amazing Japanese sweets with great coffee or matcha tea. You will feel relaxed and rested after visiting here.

Amazing Japanese sweets with matcha tea
The most popular menu is "Matcha and warabi mochi set menu" （750 yen）. Chewy warabi mochi （bracken-starch dumplings） with elegantly sweet black honey and kinako （roasted soy bean flour） on top is served with elegant and bitter matcha tea. The mildly sweet warabi mochi goes so well with slightly bitter matcha tea.
