Siesta Organic Cafe — Restaurant in Yufu

along the streets from yufuin station to the famous shopping street, you will definitely pass by this cozy eatery nestled in the Bistro Cerisier.

We came at 12.30PM on a saturday and we immediately had seats. we ordered the vegetarian bibimbap drink set, and the vegetarian fried soy vegetable meat on rice drink set, both with kabosu drink(kinda like lime/ lemon juice). the meals came relatively fast and both with a small plate of soy beans and vegetarian miso soup. we asked for no onion, garlic and spring onion. the food was delicious, a rare vegetarian/ vegan find in yufuin.

there's also free flow water. if you come, do try the kabosu drink!

there's vegetarian, vegan and meat options (although more veg ones)

thank you...

No kidding, first time in Japan ever since the pandemic began. These people are so alive, so present! It is a sanctuary soothing with Brazilian music, warm air, kindness, yummiest food (and healthiest I have had in 8 years in Japan!) We felt welcomed and celebrated the way we are. And archangel oracle deck! It’s like a kiss from the Divine! Our kids were playing on the mezzanine. I didn’t want to leave my comfy couch. Grateful for peace and...
