Lunch at Cafe Serina, a restaurant located halfway up the
mountain.
Cafe Serina
10-21-5, Nishino 6jo, Nishi-ku, Sapporo,
Hokkaido, Japan
The weather was bad yesterday, but today it’s sunny!
The weather was fine and the view from this restaurant was
spectacular, so we
We agreed to go to Cafe Selina for lunch.
When I entered the restaurant, two lovely madams were
finishing their lunch and chatting with each other over a cup
of tea.
Come to think of it, there was a Volvo parked in the parking
lot, and it was dressed to the nines.
I have a feeling he must not be from the neighborhood
(that’s a selfish guess).
I ordered the “Omelette Hayashi Rice with Coffee”.
$8.3 (tax included)
Okumura ordered Garlic Rice with Coffee.
$8.3 (tax included)
He wants to power up with garlic ^^.
No, probably stinks in the afternoon! (Laughs)
The restaurant opened probably about 30 years ago and
the atmosphere inside is really nice.
Jute bag containing coffee beans from the ceiling of the
counter.
There’s also a piano on the floor for whoever plays it.
On top of a mountain, relatively close to the office, in a quiet
and fashionable atmosphere.
After having lunch and coffee, I called out to Mr. Okumura
Mr. Okumura!
Hi? Mr. Okumura turns around (laughs).
Since the weather is so nice, let’s go to the terrace!
This place is about 492 feet above sea level, or in the
mountains.
The pictures may not do it justice.
I would like you to see this view.

View from the terrace
Hmmm, cold after being on the terrace for about 10 minutes!
Then I went back in and had another cup of hot coffee
because it was cold.＾＾
When you enter the restaurant from the terrace, the first
thing you see is
This jazz ornament is the first thing you see.
Maybe there used to be an iazz group like this!
The music is fun and jazz is good, isn’t it?
It’s a nice ornament and I love it.
It’s charming, but also very cool and dynamic.
At first it was cold, so I warmed myself on the stove.
I noticed it over another cup of coffee.
Very pleasant jazz music is playing.
I looked around the store to see where it was coming from.
There it was!
In front of the piano we just saw…
There is a boom box
Oh my God!!!
They were playing background music on cassette tape on
this boombox!
Hmmm… nice tone.
Rather than CDs or downloading music and listening to it on
a cell phone
Analog sound is more comfortable and soothing to the ear.
Although the year and model are different, our vintage shop

We sell radio cassette players from the same manufacturer
“AIWA”
Please take a look.

We really love boomboxes from this era.
We only have one boombox up for sale, but we haven’t
maintained it yet.
We have a few boomboxes that we haven’t maintained yet,
so we’ll get them maintained and put them up for sale soon!
