Large fruit parfait at brunch or lunch
Large fruit parfait anchors the cafe and dessert cafe brief, making THE LIVING a fit for brunch or lunch centered on sweets. Tabelog placed it at No. 68 with 3.7 points in its 2025 Restaurant ranking.
Flat Chidori 2F street-scene setting
Flat Chidori 2F puts the room at 1 Chome−19−5 in Ota City, with a street-scene outlook. The independent, standalone setup suits a destination pause inside a Tokyo day rather than a chain stop.
Large fruit parfait with quiet pacing
Large fruit parfait plans pair with zero-proof pours, casual dress, and quiet, leisurely pacing, which helps for a conversation-led brunch or lunch. The kitchen also works with local sourcing.
