Kajinho Pizza and Acerola Cafe

It is located at the top of a mountain, and it is surrounded by trees.

Kajinho is a Pizza, salad, coffee, and fruit juice (acerola juice, etc…) restaurant … and it is sooooooooo delicious!!!!!

 

It’s so popular that you may wait for a table for over 30 minutes. However, you can play Othello while you wait.

When you enter the café, you will be surrounded by the atmosphere of a traditional house style.

This frame was in the corner of the shop.
It means “I want to meet a person like a flower. I want to be a person like a flower.” (花に逢はん 人に逢はん Hana-ni-awan Hito-ni-awan) The restaurant’s name (花人逢 Ka-jin-ho) comes from this poetry. The owner chose the name because he wants the café to be loved by everyone, just like everyone loves flowers.

We asked the 2^nd owner why they opened this café. The 2^nd owner’s mother is good at cooking. Sometimes she cooked pizza and held parties at home. Her friends said, “You should open a pizza café!!” Because of her friends’ words, she decided to open Kajinho. At first, she wanted the café to be comfortable for anyone to stay a long time, like a library. However, the café has been popular for ten years. The café is very comfortable, but it is too lively to be like a library.

 

There is an English menu. We ordered pizza, salad, and acerola juice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ABOUT THE SALAD:
The salad is full of color. It contains lettuce, paprika, onion, cucumber, carrot and corn. The dressing is fresh and sour-tasting.

 

ABOUT THE PIZZA:
It is Kajinho’s original pizza. It contains pepperoni, bacon, corn, onion, green pepper and gooey cheese. When we saw the pizza, our mouths were watering and our stomachs were growling. We couldn’t wait to eat it. When we crammed the pizza into our mouths, cheese stretched and melted. The pizza crust is fluffy. YOU CAN GET TAKE OUT!!

ABOUT THE JUICE:

There are many kinds of juice, but the waiter recommended Acerola juice to us. The acerola fruit is grown in Motobu. It is rich, but not heavy. You should drink it, but be careful!! If you drink it here, you may not be able to drink acerola juice anywhere else. Because it has such a great taste. AND YOU CAN GET TAKE OUT!!

 

 

 

 

 

ABOUT THE WATER:
The 2^nd owner is concerned with the use of spring water. He goes to Kunigami-Daikokurindo to draw spring water once a week. He uses spring water to make pizza crust, juice, coffee and so on.

If you aren’t good at speaking Japanese, you don’t have to worry. Because there is a waiter who can speak English, Chinese and Italian.
