Hometown Teahouse
- Couples
Hometown Teahouse is a lovely small restaurant with a basic setup (a few tables on a terrace), but it's very popular for its soft red bean pancakes and hand-rolled sushi.
Owned and run by a Japanese lady, Hometown Teahouse gets really crowded during the day, so most people order a takeout set through a small window outside the shop.
