Cafe Iroha Breakfast

Cafe Iroha is one of my favourite places – not only because they let 15 of us pile in every Sunday to practise speaking Japanese (and English), but also because they serve really great food.

Every Sunday it’s a toss up between having a regular breakfast of grapefruit and greek yoghurt, or going downstairs to buy a pastry from Simit Sarayi, or just leaving it until 11.30 when I go to the Japanese meetup, where I can have a traditional Japanese breakfast. Recently, the Japanese breakfast has been the winning option.

This is what most Japanese people eat for breakfast – especially when there is a wife or mother making it for them! Fish, rice, soup and things like fermented beans called natto are what fuels the land of the rising sun…and also me on occasion!

Find Cafe Iroha at Friedensstraße 6, 60311 Frankfurt. It’s usually open for food from 11.30am and here it their homepage.
