It's a wonderful place. Great desserts and a wonderful atmosphere. It also makes more a perfect break if you're walking down from the Philosopher's Walk and heading to Heian Jingu. </p> <p>(For those in need, they have an English menu or if the owner's wife is working she may come and just translate the Japanese menu for you.) </p> http://openkyoto.com/kyoto-support/topic/kyoto-nama-chocolat-organic-tea-house#post-56 Tue, 06 Jan 2009 04:24:15 +0000 peko 56@http://openkyoto.com/kyoto-support/ <p>Hello Mora, I used to live in this neighborhood and I had been past the shop once but never in.

During our late November '08 trip to Kyoto, paying a visit to Kyoto Chocolat was on the must-see-taste list. It's located very close to the Heian Shrine. Visit their website [Japanese and English] at <a href="http://www.kyoto-namachocolat.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.kyoto-namachocolat.com</a> for the complete story and background. We purchased a box of their mixed chocolates...more like lovely handmade truffles...and a chocolate cake that we took to friends for dessert. For most Americans, the cake will be too dry and not sweet enough, but for my partner and me it was perfect. The chocolates must be kept frozen; you remove them about 1 minute prior to serving. They were incredible. I highly recommend a visit for tea and chocolates. If you are a dog and cat lover you will feel right at home. The owner and his wife have a beautiful Irish setter who greets you at the genkan, and then an orange striped cat sleeps lazily on the floor cushions inside. An amazing experience.</p> <p>Kyoto Nama Chocolat Organic Tea House<br /> Phone / Fax 075-751-2678<br /> Tenno-cho 76-15, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto 606-8335<br /> (3 min. walk from Okazaki-michi Bus Stop) </p>
