I realize that this blog has become light on the joys of living in Okinawa and heavy on boat stuff. Let’s remedy this.

Tou Cafe and Gallery is, as the name suggests a cafe and gallery. It is run by the daughters of one of Okinawa’s greatest potters, Yoneshi Matsuda.

It is such a great place. https://www.smartmagazine.jp/okinawa/article/meal/36583/

It is impossible to find and I imagine that 50% of potential clientele just drive by. I do not think they care and ostentatious signage would be vulgar. Tou cafe is not vulgar. Friend Tomomi has been decorating the cafe with her amazing Ikebana.

Today, we eat and Tomomi renews the displays.

The ladies who run the restaurant are so wonderful. They have no edge, they are not angry, they are committed to beauty, to quality and to fun. Happiness and Joy.

I buy a plate.

Tomomi does Ikebana.

Okinawa.
