 After a few spring days in March, it's gone back to winter.

It's raining today, which is a shame.

Now that the children have started school this week, An-an is going back to its original opening hours.

From the 15th of this month we will be open from 8am to 3pm Monday to Friday and from 10am to 3pm on Saturdays

If all goes well, from the 12th of April the café will be open for food and drink on the terrace, so the lockdown delivery service and okonomiyaki nights will stop.

However, you will still be able to buy Japanese food in the café and we hope to run the okonomiyaki as a one-off event, so please look out for that next time.

  We are into another lockdown month. How are you doing?

Since the last week of January, the café has been running three days a week (Thursday, Friday and Saturday).

We've been spending the first half of the month updating the café website and thinking about how we're going to run it. Occasionally we'll open the cafe for a few events, so keep an eye on our blog, Facebook and Instagram for updates.

This year, for the first time in 124 years, Setsubun will be on the 2nd of February. It's one day earlier than usual.
It makes us feel good. Spring will come a day earlier. So I thought we have to celebrate this day with ehomaki.

That's why Japanese sweets are also turning into spring colour. Pink and green really make you feel lighter.

EhouMaki - 2nd February is Setsubun, the last day of winter.

Ehomaki

In order not to spill the seven blessings we receive from the mouth, we eat the whole roll without talking, facing the direction of Ehou (where the luck comes from). Do not use a knife, so as not to cut off the good fortune. If you want to make it smaller, you may want to roll it with half the size nori before make it.
