Japan's Kanji aesthetic style gives people an inexplicable sense of reverence. As Japanese Zen believes that contentment and simplicity are a virtue, which is different from the beauty and wisdom of traditional Chinese aesthetics. Japanese Buddhism emphasizes the simplicity and wisdom of the outside. Don't pursue flashy, remove decoration and point to the source.

Recently, a friend recommended a shop, hidden in Dongshan near East Lake Peizheng, a five-minute walk out of the subway. The destination is a small courtyard on the first floor of a residential building. When you walk into the small courtyard, you can feel the simple and elegant Japanese wind.

Entering the small courtyard, white stones are paved on the black stone to make the road. The connected facade is also covered in black and white. The door and window frames are black, the walls are white, and the handles are made of gold.

When I entered, I found that the white wall had turned red brick color. There is a black stone bar with simple and clear utensils and a cup storage compartment hanging on the wall. I am looking forward to the cup you can get from ordering.

Spread along the red brick wall and turn indoors, you should be the main hall. The wall is full of red brick fur. On one side is a half-meter-tall tatami seat that requires slippers to sit on the seat; on the other side is a row of orange benches, with doors on both sides leading to the employee area.

Gradually, you will feel an implicit style that reduces aesthetics. For example, the red brick of the original house is unveiled; it is like using imperfect furniture to express sorrow and beauty by seeking the next best choice, conveying an indescribable tranquility.

In addition to the wifi signal in the air, there are classic and contemporary equipment here. There are new flip switches at the door, air conditioners from the 1970s in the ceilings and corners, and antique chandeliers from an unknown era...

After staying for a long time, some words emerged in my mind: mysterious, refined, silent, depressed, and withered. The store name is like their antonym.

Agape Spcae. agápê is the Greek word for "love", and adding Space is the space of true love without any trouble. There are activities in the space from time to time, so it is recommended to make an appointment before coming.

When I opened the menu, I discovered the environment for subtraction, and the prices of the products were added.

[Organic Faneggplant salad]

Two-color tomatoes, paired with sweet salad and small vegetables, look colorful and taste appetizing. Make the salad into a summer dessert, which is nutritious.

It is just a part of the rice dumpling, that is, everything. Sprinkle the pork floss on the alkaline rice dumplings, and the cut surface reveals the heart of the bean paste. The taste is light, slightly salty and slightly sweet.

[Hand rushCoffee]

Kenyan beans smell a little burnt, but taste fruity. The Kan-ear coffee from Mr. Shinzo Ono has a deep-baked and heavy flavor that Japanese people like. It is refreshing and refreshing, but the flavor is difficult to taste.

[PastQuestion]

Holding a handmade pottery bowl in your hand feels safe, and drinking light tea in the bowl. The tea belongs to primary matcha, with a dark green tone, a faint matcha flavor, and a silky taste. After a hard day, I received a good bowl of tea.

If the salad and coffee cups and saucers in front are replaced with some matted tableware, the artificial traces will be better exposed. I believe that they can also conform to this meaning, with a "clumsy" shape and "astringent" image.
