AT COFFEE HOUSE THE CAFE in Yokohama

Over there, where the sunlight shines through the trees from Yamashita park, is the ever graceful restaurant. This restaurant, which is located on 1F of the Hotel New Grand, symbolizes Yokohama. It's official name is Coffee House The Cafe.Even though the name has Coffee House in it, it is still a restaurant. It was established in1927, and still has an air of the nostalgic mood from those days. Sometimes when it's quiet inside the building, you hear the steam whistle from Yokohama harbor which stretches out before your eyes. It's easy to fall into the illusion that this place is the real Yokohama, more so than the actual place itself. This restaurant is a place where you can soak up the deep atmosphere of what makes Yokohama special.

There are three famous menu items in this restaurant. They are the Seafood doria, spaghetti Neapolitan, pudding a la mode. All three are original dishes. The restaurant has laid down the foundations of western cuisine in Japan.

Seafood doria

This is a dish that was made for overseas customers with poor health, and is gentle on delicate throats. It was created by the restaurant’s first master chef, Mr. Saly Wiel from Switzerland. It is overflowing with large scallops and shrimps…

Spaghetti Neapolitan

A dish that was created by Mr. Shigetada Irie, the restaurant’s second general chef. After seeing Americans adding salt, pepper, and tomato ketchup to spaghetti, he added his own touch and this dish was born. Nowadays you can eat spaghetti neapolitan all over Japan. You can bet it’s thanks to this dish!!! Tomato sauce added to pasta al dente, with the added combination of pastrami hams and mushrooms. A most elegant and gentle flavor!!

Recommended menu

The standard salad is a model example of how a salad should be….. I always order this salada, and it never ceases to be fresh and delicious!! The cucumbers are especially outstanding!! It is served with a traditional French style dressing.

The Cafe serves KIRIN’s Premium beer Brown mister. It has a strong flavor, and a fragrant aroma. A beer that matches the restaurant’s atmosphere perfectly.

The 2F of the restaurant ......

The 2F of the restaurant has been turned into a hall with the concept of the restaurant’s European taste. It’s majestic appearance represents the Classic hotel that is present in Japan today……
