Recently I went to this really awesome cafe called Sub Store in Koenji. I had no idea such a place even existed, but it's so cool! Me and a good friend I met through dance (of course XD) met up in Koenji! Actually she is living in Beppu, but she came to Tokyo for a swing dance event, and that's how we met.
She was visiting Tokyo again, so we decided to meet up in Koenji! We didn't decide where exactly to go. I suggested All C's Cafe which is super cute and full of giant teddy bears and cute sweets and cookies (and regular food too), but it was a bit close to their closing time. She knew of a place that I'd never been! She said she tried to go before but they were closed. They were open for us luckily!
The food they had was apparently Indonesian, which I'd never tried before. We got a tofu thing and some other soybean based food thing that I forget the name of, and some AMAZING chicken soup. It was all delicious, and the people who worked there (and I believe also the owner) were super nice and friendly, spoke English, and answered our questions about the food and drinks.
We had quite a few drinks, and we talked about Japan and life, and a lot about dance! We met through swing, but she can of course salsa too! I was excited to talk to her about how obsessed I am XD
