A passionate and exciting team
At Kaki Bistrot, the passion for Japanese culture is felt as soon as you step through the door. The 2 young owners, of Chinese origin, not only take great care of their customers, but also take into consideration every feedback they receive.

With its kawaii decor (seriously, even the menu is just too cute!), its delicious dishes, and its irresistible treats, Kaki is well on its way to becoming a new paradise - maybe even a headquarters - for lovers, not just of Japanese dishes, but of the whole atmosphere that comes with it. A true bubble of sweetness!
Japanese dishes to die for
Warning, spoiler alert: the menu is simply delicious.

On the menu, you will find all kinds of onigiris (rice balls usually wrapped in nori seaweed and often stuffed), homemade dorayakis (Japanese pastries), bento boxes of the day, but also Japanese sandwiches called "Sandos", prepared with Japanese white bread, with a variety of savory fillings (fried chicken, fried pork, potato salad for vegetarians)... and sweet fillings too! And, for the spring season, their design is floral and colorful. They are so beautiful that you almost want to keep them intact, but we prefer to devour them in record time for obvious reasons.

Another specialty of the house is called "Ochazuké": rice accompanied by tea, with seaweed, salt, sesame, a salted plum... Pour your hot green tea over your salted plum onigiri, ideal for a snack. At Kaki, you can also enjoy your coffee or matcha latte, accompanied by mochis but especially... CHEESECAKE! The recipe is constantly reinvented, so you always want to try the freshly arrived new one. A real delight for the taste buds...

Finally, the menu changes with the seasons. For winter, an incredible curry warmed our hearts and bellies, but yakitori is currently in the spotlight, meaning: skewers cooked on a grill, often made with chicken. We can't wait to see what summer has in store for us!
Tempting menu options
In terms of ambiance, a small room is available upstairs to enjoy the culinary delights of Kaki Bistrot, while a terrace is set up during sunny days to combine sunshine and feasting. (The ultimate combo)

And of course, you can take away! To finish, the prices: the "sando + drink + dessert" formula is only €10, and the 3 onigiris formula is €9. A moment of pure pleasure, without breaking the bank.
