Cabot Cove MUSEUM TERRACE
Opened in the summer of 2008 in Oiwake, Karuizawa, Cabot Cove was one of the first cafés in the area to specialize in breakfast, quickly becoming a pioneer of Karuizawa’s morning dining boom. The owners were inspired to open the café after encountering restaurants serving delicious breakfasts during their stay in New England on the U.S. East Coast.
It really feels like a little foreign town here. The whole atmosphere is warm and relaxing, and both the building and the decor are really stylish. They're known for their brunch and hand-drip coffee, especially the pancakes and eggs Benedict—both are super popular and taste delicate, not too heavy. Sitting by the window or out on the terrace with a coffee and a nice view honestly feels like a vacation. It's the perfect place to enjoy a slow, laid-back morning.

Sendai Shopping Arcades
“Hapina Nakakecho", "CLIS Road", and "Marble Road Omachi" run east to west from Sendai Station, and "Sun Mall", "Vlandome", and "Ichibancho 4-chome Shopping Street" run north to south, forming the letter "to" in katakana, making it the largest shopping street in Tohoku.
The shopping arcade is really long—you could shop until your legs are tired and still not see everything! It's perfect for a slow stroll, and you don't have to worry about rain since the whole street is covered. Super convenient.
