Cafe Independance

I was in Kyoto with Yumi doing some sightseeing, and she showed me this GREAT cafe.
The Atmosphere was so moody, very Indy. I love those Cafes! In Germany I was with my friends all the time in those places, so I enjoyed it alot to be with her there.

Generally, in Japan, Cafes are the places to go for women and couples. Men go to Family restaurants and Izakayas.

Japanese women love "Le Chic", anytime anywhere! And it does not matter how much it costs. Men want to live more Macho-like, so avoiding everything smooth is an Art for itself here.

Well but that should be written in another post ;)
Let's enjoy now these nice pictures :)


Very Indy atmosphere, with a Japanese counter and Western chairs and tables for the guests.

This set-up is found everywhere in Japan.
Why the counter is always Japanese is beyond me..


Yumi bought a Magazine called "The Big Issue". I didn't ask her about it even if she was trying to show it to me all the time, I was afraid of it!!
I thought, woah THE BIG issue... Too much for my poor feelings..
I'll ask her next time ;)
