Hinonchi is a restored 100+ year-old farmhouse serving a seasonal Japanese lunch set focused on mostly plant-based dishes, with fish broth used traditionally but avoidable upon request. The couple running the café crafts many elements there, from the food grown to the utensils carved and textiles dyed, creating a homey yet refined rural atmosphere. Reservations are required, and the venue operates only on weekends, emphasizing a slow-paced dining experience with vegan onigiri, sweets, and high-quality matcha.
