Chiba is such a great city to escape from the busy Tokyo. The central of this city can be reached only from 30 to 50 minutes from Tokyo and presents a beautiful city light at night. The monorail also will give you a unique view in Chiba!
Finding halal food in this city is not difficult as the growing number of Muslim friendly facilities in the city. For authentic Japanese food lovers, spending your relax time eating healthy Japanese halal food in Kappo Suruga, is my recommendation for you. This restaurant offers you not only halal (certificated by Nippon Asia Halal Association), but also healthy food! Kappo Suruga use organic vegetables and natural ingredients for the menu and for Muslim customers they will serve halal meat for the dish. Vegetarian and gluten-free course also offered by the restaurant. The okami (lady lord) of Kappo Suruga, Junko Iba, has a strong commitment providing healthy and barrier-free cuisine for her customers. Her experience in America gave her a new perspective about Muslim lifestyle which leads her to provide halal and healthy Japanese food for every people, includes Muslim.
The uniqueness about this restaurant is upgraded by the various dishes that will be served every week. Kappa Suruga serves different menu almost every week since they believe that Japan has 72 seasons, so the menu also changes depend on the season. On the day I enjoyed my dinner in Kappo Suruga, I got “Cloudy Season, No Rainbow Stays” menu. Although that the name of the season sounds melancholy, but the food tasted amazing and I got fugu sashimi! Yes, the chef has a license to process fugu! It presented beautifully and fresh. For group tour, you also can order its tendon tempura lunch box and sushi set in affordable price.
The traditional Japanese style of the restaurant interior will give you a relaxing atmosphere. You can try the bar side of the restaurant for casual atmosphere or a Japanese room for more privacy. You also can book various Japanese experience, include popular tea ceremony and aikido experience in Kappo Suruga.
