🥨Dining Review:

I stumbled upon flgun cafe after visiting Senso-ji Temple and the Nishi-Sando. Tucked away at the very end of Nishi-Sandō, it's quite discreet and rarely has long lines, making it perfect for travelers looking to avoid the crowds and relax. 😆

➡️Iced Americano: The taste was average, neither good nor bad. It was refreshing and smooth, without any major surprises.

➡️Pancake: Soft and fluffy, but a bit sweet overall, perfect for those with a sweet tooth. It pairs well with coffee.

The staff are friendly and offer an English menu, so basic English communication is no problem. Cards are accepted, making it quite tourist-friendly. You don't have to wait at the door; it's recommended to walk in and find a seat before going downstairs to order. The circulation is a bit unique, so be mindful.

🥞Summary:
The restaurant has a hipster feel with a simple, wood-like design and good lighting. The window seats have large floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Nishi-Sandō, creating a quiet and relaxing atmosphere. It's a great place to relax, browse your phone, or organize photos. The space isn't large, but it's not too crowded.

This cafe is not worth going to specifically, but if you happen to be near Sensoji Temple and are tired of shopping, it would be a good place to rest. The floor-to-ceiling windows and the quiet atmosphere are its biggest plus points 👌🏻👌🏻
