Nan Kuru
If you find yourself in Uruma, Okinawa, make sure to stop by Nan Kuru, a charming café that embodies the essence of local cuisine. Nestled at 485 Gushikawa, this quaint spot specializes in serving up delightful home-cooked Japanese dishes with a comforting twist.
The atmosphere at Nan Kuru is nothing short of serene. The café is adorned with a beautifully maintained garden, which offers a tranquil escape that invites all ages to unwind. It's no wonder that you'll often find groups of elder ladies enjoying their meals amidst the floral backdrop, sharing laughter and life stories. The warm, inviting decor complemented by the sounds of nature creates an ideal setting for a leisurely meal or a chance to catch up with friends.
As you peruse the menu, you'll be drawn to the culinary gems that await you. One highlight is the ebiten (shrimp tempura), which has been raved about for its exceptional taste and crisp texture. Pair it with some refreshing chiffon cake or sata andagi (traditional Okinawan doughnuts) for dessert, both of which customers have praised for their light sweetness and delightful presentation. There's a lovely surprise element as well; the dessert and drink station is self-serve, allowing you to indulge at your own pace.
Reviewers have shared their delightful experiences, with one customer, 'Devon Buckner,' expressing his delight, saying, "I loved everything about this place! It has a beautiful, peaceful atmosphere..." This sentiment resonates with many who visit and quickly find themselves enchanted by the café's ambiance and offerings. Another reviewer, 'hiro k,' noted that the meals are lovingly prepared, emphasizing the homestyle feel of the dishes, while also mentioning the care taken in the café's beautiful garden that adds to the overall experience.
While some customers may mention that the establishment could use a little extra dusting, most agree that the authentic Japanese flavors and the heartfelt service are what truly make Nan Kuru stand out. Whether you are taking a break from exploring Okinawa or simply looking for a cozy gathering spot, let Nan Kuru staff provide you with a meal that warms your heart and satisfies your palate.
Come visit Nan Kuru for a charming and delightful culinary experience that feels just like home.
