The 'Machikado Cafe,' based on Toshima Ward's resident proposal system, will officially commence operations. The various large and small parks scattered throughout the ward are cherished as places of relaxation for people of all ages. Through this initiative, the arrival of kitchen car cafes will provide culinary enjoyment that cannot be experienced through vending machines.
In particular, with the cooperation of Hotel Metropolitan, their hotel bread 'Rouge Terroir' will be supplied, making it possible to enjoy this product, usually only available at the hotel, at your nearest park.
Furthermore, unlike typical kitchen cars, a diverse lineup will be available, including a sweets cafe truck run by a professional patissier with over 10 years of experience, and a food truck from a Japanese confectionery shop founded 76 years ago. These will tour various parks from May to November. When the Machikado Cafe is held at a park near you, please come and enjoy the culinary delights.
Cooperation: Hotel Metropolitan / Collabosoken Inc. / Peace Live General Incorporated Association
