ASTERISK    

I think this coffee is the best coffee in my favourite. There is sweet chestnut tree, persimmon, many herbs are also planted in lovely garden. It might be the nearest cafe from perfect. Coffee is tasted strong but I could enjoy as black coffee. After I add milk, it tastes like creamy sweets. Salad's dressing seems homemade one, I have not tasted it before. It was curry flavour. Bread is also homemade one, which is gentle and good with meal.
