Freedom is good. Let's take it easy. I think the most important thing in life is this "it'll work out somehow" spirit. People who are too focused on details, worry too much, and have too much stress seem to lack this. It's okay to be vague, not be too attached, and live positively. But, how do you do that when it's related to your personality? I think it's about "learning to like yourself as you are." Well, balance is also important. Hello! I'm selling positivity, Takumon ☻
Today, let's talk about "Nantoka Presso" located in Jiyugaoka. It's about a 2-minute skip from Jiyugaoka Station. It's on the 1st floor of Luz Jiyugaoka. Opened in November 2017, it's like a family member of the popular shop "Pan to Espresso to" in Omotesando. The company was founded by a copywriter who helped with the branding of "Pan to Espresso to" and his accountant friend. They believe in moving forward one hour at a time. It may sound simple, but it's quite difficult. Not rushing, not being lazy. Providing a moment of relief for those living at an incredible speed. Making those who always want to be excited feel the "now." It's nice, isn't it? I like it. Probably my kind of favorite shop. Here is the game and entertainment and it makes me feel excited. Nantoka Presso is an espresso, right!? Yes. It seems like it could be a great place for a big laugh. I visited on a snack day off. Still hungover. Before I knew it, I was back at Free Hill Jiyugaoka. I was taking a friend who was leaving for overseas to Haneda Airport. The driver asked me to "buy some coffee," so I visited here. It's located on the 1st floor of a slightly larger complex called Luz. There's also a sister store called "Pan to Espresso to Jiyu-gata" on the 3rd floor. Jiyu-gata? (laughs) There's an eat-in option on the upper floor. And crawl. There are many related stores, aren't there? I quickly entered the store, feeling the Nantoka vibe from the outside. Lightly skipping the steps of Free Hill. Gently holding my husband's hand. You can enter the store right away. It's a small square-shaped store. The theme seems to be "floating feeling." I'm always floating lightly, so I don't feel any discomfort. Synchronized Attack! My friends are about to arrive, so I quickly bought a Cinnamon Roll (270 yen) and a Brioche Anpan (300 yen). - Cinnamon Roll: Crunchy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. With an accent of orange peel. It has a deep croissant-like flavor. It's slightly sweet and salty. - Anpan: Delicious anpan. I like the dough. It's filled with plenty of red bean paste. The shop's main item seems to be the "Sandwich Sandwich," but I had a sandwich for breakfast... The taste of the top and bottom of the bread is different. I also bought the promised coffee. There are cups, but the "Bottled Drink (600 yen)" is also a signature item here. So, I got one with milk (Muto) and one black with a timed extraction. They seem to extract it properly after ordering. The size is just right. Pocket whiskey size. It's cute and good. They can even put your name on it with a prior reservation. The taste was, of course, delicious. And they use espresso beans. Easy to drink. I gave one to my friend and headed to the airport. Oh, I should have bought another one... But my friend said, "You always come up with weird jokes, don't you? That's cool." But he also mentioned that it's a bit expensive. It's not a convenience store! Nantoka Presso! Oh, but wouldn't it be even more popular if they sold it at convenience stores? The bottle shape is nice. It's easy to put in a clutch bag. Thank you for the meal. Takumon passing through. Chasuchasu♪
