Mmm-mmm

I'm at the tea cafe Cha-no-Wa about to have a sweet snack.

UPDATE (about 4 hours later): Oh, my. It just dawned on me that I cut in front of about 20 people who were waiting to get in to this cafe. This place has two floors. Downstairs is a small shop that sells prepackaged sweets and bags of tea. The cafe is upstairs. I walked into the shop and asked if they had soft ice cream to go, and the counter staff directed me upstairs. The shop was pretty crowded, but everyone was up against the tea display, not near the counter. I went upstairs and as I was looking over the menu (you order, pay, then sit down), I decided to forgo the ice cream and get a dessert & tea set and sit (I managed to grab a really good seat in front of the window, too). When I left and went back downstairs, I noticed that all the people lined up by the tea were cordoned off by a thick yellow ribbon. It just dawned on me that that was the line to go upstairs. A bit of a faux pas on my part, but I really enjoyed my dessert set.
