Now then, let’s head right into osteria（オステリア）るこら・るっこら!
Near the door,
there’s a sign for るこら・るっこら.
A lunch menu board,
a dinner menu board,
and a board showing the opening hours are all set out there.
Open the door decorated with a frying pan, and inside you’ll find
a cozy, intimate space with a calm atmosphere.
Some customers who have traveled in Europe have even said that るこら・るっこら has the same warm, homey feel as restaurants over there.
The table seating inside is:

- Three tables for 4
for a total of 18 seats.
Near the door,
they sell るこら・るっこら original T-shirts and hoodies.

The female staff member on the left is wearing size XL.
There are also lap blankets near the door.
And here you’ll find
bottles of alcohol, a stereo, CDs, and more.
By the way, るこら・るっこら is particular about its BGM: they only play Western music from the ’80s.
They also sell single-use olive oil, essential for Italian and French cuisine, for ¥50（tax included）.
The CD on the right is by V!VA BOYS,
an artist active at live houses around the Hanshinkan area.

At るこら・るっこら,
they occasionally hold live performances,

while savoring Italian and French dishes♪
What’s more, Chef Tanaka of るこら・るっこら can play guitar too♪
Near the restroom,
Chef Tanaka’s own guitar is displayed.
Other items displayed on the walls inside include…
a French cookbook.

Near the table seating,
there is also a menu board on display.
It’s placed somewhere easy to see, and the board lists dishes made with seasonal ingredients, so when you visit るこら・るっこら, be sure to check the board menu!
There are warm, antique-style light fixtures,
oil paintings by an acquaintance of Chef Tanaka,
and an illustration of the るこら・るっこら restaurant.
This plaque and certificate for excellence in quality control
certify that the restaurant’s quality control activities received high praise.
There is also a certificate of appreciation from the Mayor of Kumamoto City on display.

In addition to disaster area support,
“Le Lien（ル・リアン）絆〜食楽” regularly holds events featuring collaborations between different genres of cuisine.
