Tea Room & Crepe LIFE in Tanabe City
This property is a tea room and crepe shop located at 26-5 Naka Manro, Tanabe City, Wakayama Prefecture. The establishment, named LIFE, operates from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with a last order time of 5:30 PM. It is closed on Tuesdays and the first Monday of each month.
The interior is described as a small, cozy space with orange lighting illuminating the tables, creating a nostalgic atmosphere. The shop is popular, attracting customers from distant locations due to the reputation of its food. The secret to its success is a homemade tomato sauce, which is slowly simmered to bring out the flavor of the ingredients and create a unique depth. The menu is extensive and includes curry, doria, omurice, and gratin, all of which are popular. A set meal (including a mini salad and drink, with the gratin set also including a roll bread) is available for around 1,000 yen, making it an accessible option for lunch. The dessert menu is also substantial, featuring homemade pudding and buckwheat flour crepes.
The property is located off Route 42 Tanabe Bypass at the Tennoike intersection, with access instructions indicating a turn towards Kamimaro/Misu, a left turn at a gas station, and then proceeding straight for about 100 meters past A-Co-op Manro Store.
