Ikeda Family Tea House

The Ikeda Family Tea House (池田家の茶店, Ikeda-ya no Chamise) is a small teahouse found in the village of Takigakure near the village entrance. It was founded and is run by Haruki Ikeda's parents, with Haruki himself working full time at the shop.

The shop opened 5 years before haruki was born and has since gained some recognition amongst the villagers of Takigakure as well as being slightly well known as a popular tourist spot, as it boasts a good view of the village for newcomers to appreciate. Despite its growing recogition, the shop doesn't get too many customers, with it being busy in bursts.

This is the reason why the place is not overly well built, being made entirely of plain wood, only having a sign and a few lanterns out the front in order to attract customers. Inside, the walls are plain white with few scrolls adorning the walls along with a hastily made menu. The tables are all small and round, with circular cushions used as seats.

As a tea house, it boasts an array of different teas on its menu, though they also provide mitarashi and hanami dango along with mochi and senbei for visitors to snack on at their leisure. Everything sold at the tea house is relatively affordable, even though the quality of the food sold is deserving of a higher asking price.
