About
Kugutsuso's basement room, with rough walls and dim lighting, feels like a hidden cave below the Kichijoji shopping arcades. Besides coffee it is known for a curry made with slowly sauteed onions and about ten roasted spices, served as a set with salad and a drink, and for its rare cheesecake. A morning service runs from 10:00 to 12:00.
