01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Prangipani offers more than sweet cakes: it also has options for a light meal. One visitor described the ke-ku sale as a savoury pound cake paired with cabbage and creamy cheese, with vegetables served alongside. It sounds appealing on a day when you fancy a snack rather than something sweet. Another visitor singled out the mixed sandwich, noting its mustard-seasoned filling and fluffy egg. They enjoyed it with hot tea, a combination to consider if you want to take your time over a meal and a drink.

Alongside its house blend, the coffee menu includes Mandheling. One person who tried it reported a deep, full-bodied flavour. Cafe au lait made with kuromitsu, a dark sugar syrup, offers a different take on coffee. To go with something sweet, choose from homemade baked cheesecake or gateau au chocolat, or try anmitsu or cream anmitsu, a Japanese dessert served with cream.

Some visitors have enjoyed time in the Japanese-style room, looking out over the courtyard—a peaceful setting for a pause after a meal. In the morning, the service includes toast, a green salad, and a choice of house-blend coffee or tea. The cafe is open on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 10:00 to 16:00. Payment is cash only.
