About

Fune serves a set lunch built around Japanese rice porridge, fermented vegetables, pickles, and tofu, with raw sweets and distinctive teas such as vetiver and cacao. The small cafe sits inside a Kyoto-style machiya alongside an ethical goods and clothing shop, and its quiet, carefully arranged space suits a slow break rather than a quick meal.
