Camelback

Shibuya & Shimo-Kitazawa


Okay, this is a cafe and the staff really want you to order a drink (and the coffee is good) but the real reason everyone wants to come here is for the omelette sandwich – made like the kind of thick, fluffy rolled omelette you get at sushi shops – served on soft bread with just a hint of spicy mustard. Seating is on a bench outside.
