April sweets and events

There was announcement of the name of next era (for the next emperor).
It's called

Reiwa(令和)

My impression of this word in Kanji is like the era in 8 Century... the I found out the word is made up with two character in old poem made in 8-9 Century. So my guess was not so far away...

Here Summer time has started and brighten up. Well, a bit strange. Plum and Cherry are blooming at the same time, if you see ground, daffodils, tulips and camellia are blooming beautifully... in one go. Now bluebells are coming so fast.
Then someone told me that it will go cold again 😢

So, before all the cherry blossoms finish, I would like to hold Japanese Afternoon Tea for cherry blossoms. As it is very short notice, it will be a bit simplified.

Number of seats are limited. Drop in welcome between 2pm to 5pm.
Although there is no need of making reservation, if you don't want to disappoint, please leave text message with name and contact number, for how many people on Cafe's telephone. I won't be able to listen if you leave message recorded.
