Eating a Monster

Japan has many interesting coffee shops. My friend’s wife runs a coffee shop. Her shop is in Toba. The shop is named Ciao. Ciao is a greeting in Italian. It can mean, “Hello,” or, “See you again!”

They make pizza, pasta, doria, and sandwiches. Also, they have very good cakes and desserts. I like ordering the fruit parfait. They have three sizes of parfait. The largest size is called Monster. It is big and includes a piece of cake… inside the parfait!

Sunday we ate lunch at Ciao before going to the hot springs.
