Multicultural Magic of Cafe Japon

Multicultural Magic of Cafe Japon by Honma, Miyoko. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781665543330.

Imagine a restaurant where everything is made from scratch, drawing on diverse cultures from around the world. Now, add the dimension of freshly baked baguettes, croissants, and other baked treats. The vision in your imagination would now be approaching a small, unique restaurant in Ann Arbor, Michigan - called Café Japon - which operated from 2006 through 2011. Café Japon developed a cult-like following among those who knew and appreciated the results of this difficult approach to restaurant food preparation. The magic of this restaurant ran so deep in its followers that, even now in 2021, they are asking when Café Japon will re-open. This cookbook provides a bridge between the present reality, and the fond memories people have of eating at Café Japon, by providing "how to" recipes and instructions for the preparation of many of the dishes formerly served at the restaurant. This cookbook is called "Multicultural Magic of Café Japon" to acknowledge how deeply this unique approach to restaurant food resonated with devoted customers.
