Hours:  10am-8pm, Lunch 11am-2pm

This restaurant's lunch ends at 2pm, which is precisely when my break starts so I haven't been able to make it here.  But there was one rainy day when I was able to take an early break.  It was perfect that I didn't have to venture outside in the rain since it's located in a department store attached to Nagoya station.

Today, the lunch sets were a hayashi rice (Japanese beef stew), pasta, or omelette rice.  All seem very Japanese comfort food like.  I went with the pasta lunch (¥1180, including drink of choice).   

Just a I expected, the flavors were not all that different then a Japanese kissaten. The small egg salad sandwich and the ham and cucumber sandwich used an interesting yellow kabocha (squash) bread, but this was not at all apparent in the taste.  At least it had the crust still attached though! The salad was a shredded cabbage, lettuce and mizuna mix with a sesame dressing.  The dinner roll had a marmalade spread in it.  The main, tomato cream pasta, had fresh peas (I like that in Japan green peas are usually the fresh crunchy and plump type as opposed to the shriveled, mushy frozen type), broccoli and onion.  They also served it with a half cooked egg to be eaten how you like, but mainly for breaking overtop the pasta. There were also a few slices of squid.  The sauce was so salty and so the tomato flavor wasn't really apparent.  The half cooked egg was a good touch to mellow out this saltiness.  The soup was an egg drop chicken consommé with a few slices of onion and squash, tasting like lipton's soup with dried parsley for decor.

The waffle for dessert was light like styrofoam, and was not very sweet.  I'm not sure if it matches with matcha, but they should bring the dessert and drink after the meal while both are still warm.
