Book Cafe Update: It's Decided to be a Parfait
To those who have decided, 'I'm going to the book cafe!'
And to those who are thinking, 'Hmm, what should I do?'
I'm going to share a status update, so please enjoy~♪
Staff Introduction
Used Bookstore
Kuma-san -> Opened 'Todo & Kuma Bookstore'
Ayumi-san -> Opened 'Ippo-do'
Mamechi-san -> Opened 'Mamechi: Reading Material for Drinks and Food'
★Mamechi-san has already introduced the concept of their shop on their own note! Apparently, you can even drink recommended non-alcoholic beer.
Mamechi-san is operating under the concept of 'A bookstore that makes you want to drink when you read, and read when you drink.'
Currently, they are 'Books and Bean Cuisine Mamechi' striving to open a shop where you can enjoy both food and books. I hope this will provide some hints. It seems there are a few things they would like advice on regarding opening the shop, so please feel free to talk to them.
Now, at my book cafe, I am looking for used bookstores to set up shop. Used bookstores are also about trading books for books. Also, you can exhibit things other than books (movies, sweets, mementos, etc.). Please consult with me!

🍄< If you are still considering it, please contact me whenever you have made up your mind! There is no deadline, so it's okay to think about it until the day before.
The cafe menu has been decided!
Last time, due to the season, we served warm oyaki and hot coffee.
This time, for a summer feel, we've gone with something cool.Parfaitshave been chosen! They're available anytime, so just let me know.

* "Vanilla ice cream" was a mistake; it should be "banana ice cream"! It's so hot that my head is a bit fuzzy~💦
The contents of the parfait are...
Homemade banana ice cream... the rich flavor of the banana is irresistible. I prepare it the day before!
Slight Fever Gateau... a very, very rich gateau chocolat I wrote about in a previous article. It's delicious when chilled.
Banana... please pair it with the Slight Fever Gateau to enjoy it as chocolate banana.
Strawberry chutney... I make this jam with Indian spices by hand. It goes great with the ice cream!
Whipped cream... I'm particular about only using cream with at least 45% fat content. The secret ingredient is adding a tiny squeeze of lemon juice.
🍄<I'm also practicing the Slight Fever Black coffee~! Please feel free to try it out♪
For those who are a bit shy
For those of you wondering whether to come or not,
"I have to interact with a lot of people"
"I'm not confident I can talk in a fun way" or "I might get tired"
I think some of you might be worried about things like that.
If you think of it like an offline meetup, you might imagine everyone sitting in a circle and getting rowdy, but actually, my book cafe is quite quiet.
People are silently working on things at workshops, seriously choosing books, or immersed in reading... I go around to talk to those who come, but everyone else seems to be immersed in what they like without feeling pressured to interact.
So, it's okay if you don't try to fit in with others or make friends. When it's time to talk, we'll talk naturally, sometimes we'll get excited through books, or you can just take your time eating your parfait.
→If by any chance you feel uncomfortable, just let me know quietly.
And, Ayumi, our event assistant, has prepared this little feature for those who are a bit shy.
We'll leave it on the table, so please feel free to enjoy some coloring for a change of pace. If you'd like, please write a message to Binetsu or your thoughts on the event in the empty space; I'd be happy to read them later.
For those who want to chat to their heart's content
The event space this time is spacious. There's no one sitting next to you, and since it's a private booking, you can chat as much as you like.
This place usually operates as a cafe and coworking space. Please feel free to talk freely without worrying about keeping your voice down!

Additionally, if you have anything you'd like to discuss or if you're having trouble making up your mind, please feel free to send me a DM. I'm happy to help! Binetsu
