NELCAFE

Located in a corner of the Appi Kogen pension area near the APPI Ski Resort, this cafe is proud of its home-roasted coffee. They roast exclusively select green coffee beans. A cup of carefully hand-poured coffee will transport you to a personal paradise while surrounded by its luxurious aroma.

The owner, who studied spices in India, recommends his original spice curry using lots of locally-grown vegetables. The spinach curry is a delicious and healthy spicey curry that uses only the leaves of Hachimantai’s specialty spinach. This is a special curry that highlights the flavor of spinach and chicken cooked down to perfection. The spices and tea leaves for the chai are purchased from India and mixed in the restaurant. The result is a gentle taste that is easy to eat for both real curry lovers and children alike.
