Canal Cafe

In the district of Kagurazaka (near Yurakucho station) this restaurant is where we spent a very pleasant evening. It is next to a canal or rather a moat surrounding the entrance to Edo (former name of Tokyo). Here you can choose to sit inside or out on the terrace and watch the water, marvelling at how things can be so quiet even in the middle of Tokyo. Across the river is the railway line, and in the evening you can watch the trains go by. The food is international, and the specialty is pizza, handmade on site while you watch. They also have salads and various snack dishes, like potato croquettes, and a selection of sweets and desserts for later.
