Kamimomi Terraced Rice Fields Momian

Hi there. It’s Mr. Wada back on duty. I would like to introduce Kamimomi Terraced Rice Fields Momian cafe.

Kamimomi Terraced Rice Fields Momian

Momian is in the mountains of Kumenan-cho (Northern Okayama Prefecture). It’s accessible through a suggested route by Goggle Maps but it may be tough (narrow roads). Instead follow this sign on route #53. Roads are wider and more maintained.

Following Google Maps turns out like this…

Apparently it is a famous spot.

However, we encountered this beautiful view instead!

Parking.

Entrance

‘Help yourself in the store for serving water etc’

Amazing view of rice paddy is out there! It was early September, rice was partially harvested, though the contrast makes it look even better, don’t you think? Check out the current views on their Instagram page.

Staff told us that the place used to be a barn. Walls and floors look modern but the ceiling has been kept the old style.

Welcome the Wadas!

Kitchen

We had their specialty rice ball lunch with huge serving of veggie miso soup!

I’m beyond excited.

Big serving

Fresh lemonade after the meal (made with local yuzu citrus)

Colorful lemonade

It turned blue to violet after mixed with yuzu citrus!

Outdoor seats are also nice.

FYI, we strongly suggest that you make a reservation in advance for lunch. We saw some guys coming in but had to go since all seats are already reserved.

Let’s call it a day.
