Great Home-cook style meals beautifully presented and delicious. This cafe is well worth a visit if you are near the Kenrokuen gardens.
Jibu-ni’ is one of Kanazawa’s most popular local cuisines. The dish is made by simmering flour-coated duck or chicken, vegetables, and Kanazawa’s unique Sudare-fu (a wheat gluten) in a salty sweet sauce. Wasabi is then put on top to add seasoning. The thick sauce, the rich sweetness of the meat, and the flavor from wasabi create a well-balanced harmony.
The local green tea ricecakes with red bean soup is a nice warm dessert for a cold day.
