It was recommended to me by a friend and I was impressed the first time.This is my second visit.Even on weekdaysPlease make reservations on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.I highly recommend it (`・ω・´)First of all, there is an old folk house built over 100 years ago.The interior is tasteful and stylish.A relaxing space (◍´꒳`◍)And the menu!I was surprised that there were so many different types.Not only lunch but also sweetsAll the things look delicious (*´Д`*)I was bothered by a large number of people.I tasted various kindsEverything is really delicious (*´༥`*)♡Among them, the fresh spring rolls are chewy.What kind of fresh spring rolls were you eating until now?That's about it (lol)And the soup also has vegetable stock.Easy and delicious.Therefore, [Set B] is definitely recommended (`・ω・´)ゞ*Thai tea is the recommended drink!In a countryside like thisIt might be rude to say that, butWith quality that rivals the cityThis price feels like a great deal ♡And the most impressive thing isAfter all, hospitality⟡.·A husband and wife or family run a shop together.When I get busyBoth of us are quarrelsome or overbearing.It always happens thoughNo matter how busy you areOf course for customersCareful communication between family members! !That moves me every time (T T)(Sorry for paying attention to something weird lol)Everyone I bring along is always very happy.I'll bother you again (●︎´▽︎`●︎)

When I come to Aruno Mori, I always order seafood gapao rice and pad thai. I'm really curious about the other menu items, but when I come here, I have to try this one lol. I ate the Seafood Gapao Pizza this time, and it was so delicious that I'm not sure whether to have pizza or rice next time. lol I wish my stomach would get bigger because it makes me want to eat this and that.

A tatami room in an old folk house. It's cool even though there's no air conditioner.I ordered massaman curry. mild and weirdIt’s good that they don’t appeal to you👍was delicious.With a drink included, ¥1,100 is a reasonable price.I also liked the hidden location.

Thai food for lunch at an old folk house. It has a lot of ingredients and a Japanese taste, so it's easy to eat. There are also plenty of desserts.A popular restaurant loved by locals. It's packed even on weekdays, so be sure to time your visit. If you don't want to wait, make a reservation or try to go when it opens or around 12:30 when most of the customers have arrived. It's family friendly as it has tatami seating.There are about 5 parking spaces in front of the store and it fills up quickly. If it is full, please park at Nishiawakura Station, 20 meters before the station, and walk.This is an old folk house cafe and guesthouse located at the far end of a village of private houses, about 20 meters up the slope from the side of Nishiawakura Station under the overpass.It was 12:00 on a weekday, but we slipped in just before it was full. The tatami room was full and we were directed to the counter. To the left of the dirt floor at the entrance is a large tatami room with tables and cushions lined up. The food was cooked by a family of three, and the food was well-done, and the customer service was pleasant.I ordered the recommended tri-curry (3 types of Thai curry flavors) set B (includes drink, soup, and a small bowl of vermicelli noodles) for 1,760 yen. It was served in about 7 minutes.The green curry on the top left of the photo has chicken and cucumber cut into small pieces, and although it is spicy, it is sweeter than expected. The massaman curry on the top right contains a small whole bone-in chicken and potatoes, making it more spicy and easier to eat. The yellow curry in the bottom center is typical of Thai curry, with a slightly stronger sourness and spiciness, and is loaded with ingredients such as pork belly, tomatoes, and shimeji mushrooms. The rice was white and topped with cucumber slices and boiled eggs, and the overall dish was colorful, well-balanced, and plentiful.The set soup has a lot of ingredients and has a gentle flavor that also includes corn. Vermicelli noodles don't have any protein and are only made with healthy vegetables such as carrots and lettuce. Eat with sweet chili sauce.Cold drinks are self-service, so if you're in a tatami room, please serve yourself from a table in the corner of the room. The toilets are for each person and are located next to the entrance.Payment seemed to be only in cash other than PayPay.It seems that many locals call and take out bento boxes and other items. It appears that the popular hors d'oeuvres can also be taken out if you make a reservation the day before.

I stayed with my family and my family.This is an inn that has been beautifully renovated from an old private house, allowing you to fully enjoy the atmosphere of the area.I had my wife's Thai food for dinner, and it was so delicious that even though I was full, I ended up eating more and more.Breakfast was also delicious with warm miso soup.It's great to have a relaxing night.I would love to hear from you again.Thank you very much✨

Since I arrived at the last minute of L.O. 14:00, the lunch was gone. I ordered the double chocolate parfait and banana parfait. It was sweet and voluminous. This is an old folk house cafe with a hearth and a relaxing atmosphere. Water is self-service. There are about 5 parking spaces in front of the store.
