On the 4th floor of Hankyu Nishinomiya Gardens, there’s a restaurant called “chano-ma” with a slightly unusual interior.
As the name suggests, it seems to be inspired by an “ochanoma” living room, and this cafe restaurant has seating areas where you take off your shoes and sit up on a raised tatami-style platform.
This time, we visited “chano-ma.”

The rice here is brown rice mixed with black rice.
Rice refills are free.
The pork miso soup also comes with free refills.
And here are the four small side dishes I chose↓
This is “Spanish Mackerel and Cabbage Simmered with Grated Daikon.”
It’s autumn now, but somehow this dish has a spring-like feel to it.
This is the “Fresh Green Salad.”
It includes broccoli, green beans, and more.
This is “Ginger Pork.”
The flavor goes perfectly with the brown rice from earlier.
This is “Chicken Cutlet with Demi-Glace Sauce.”
The demi-glace sauce is excellent.
Every dish is tasty and healthy, so you can really eat your fill.
Now, I think I’ll have a drink after the meal.
