Cafe • 53 Aka, Zamami, Shimajiri District, Okinawa 901-3311, Japan
Just a 90-minute boat ride from Okinawa's main island lies the small paradise of Akajima in the Kerama Islands. Located only a five-minute walk from the port, you'll find the trendy cafe 'guu guu' that rivals any city cafe. The bright interior, primarily white with wooden elements, offers a calm ambiance. This sophisticated space provides the perfect setting for a leisurely café time, distinct from the island atmosphere.
guu guu offers two lunch options: 'Chicken Sauté Lunch' (1,250 yen) and 'Tofu Soboro Lunch' (1,150 yen). Both come with four side dishes and white rice from Kumamoto, making for a luxurious meal.
The Tofu Soboro Lunch is especially noteworthy. Healthy and filling without using meat, the combination of hijiki, shredded carrots, and konbu-seasoned tofu create a delicate harmony.
The desserts here are not to be missed, especially the rich chocolate gateau. Ordering it with a drink set makes for an even more indulgent café experience.
guu guu's charm goes beyond its food. The warm hospitality provided by the female owner from Osaka, who runs the small café herself, is a major attraction. Her attentive service and care warm the hearts of many tourists.
After enjoying the beauty of Akajima's sea, treat yourself to a leisurely café time at guu guu. It will surely become a wonderful memory of your island trip.
