Finding a Japanese breakfast spot in Kumamoto is no easy task\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

But guess what?<\/b><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve discovered a place serving breakfast in Namikizaka! So of course, we had to check it out.<\/span><\/p>\n

A New Spot in Namikizaka – Open Since November 5!<\/b><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Nestled on the first floor of a sleek, glass-fronted building on Namikizaka, you’ll find “Coluhaco”, a cozy breakfast and brunch caf\u00e9.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Located on the left-hand side at the front of the building, Coluhaco opened its doors on November 5, 2024.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They start serving breakfast from 8:30 AM, making it a rare find in Kumamoto for early risers looking for a proper morning meal.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As you step in, you’re greeted by a spacious counter in front, with table seating toward the back.<\/span><\/p>\n

Upstairs, there\u2019s even a cozy sofa seating area, perfect for a more relaxed breakfast experience.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If you prefer a seat with a view, there are tables facing Namikizaka as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your choice of Onigiri<\/b><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The breakfast plate comes with two onigiri (rice balls) of your choice, two small side dishes, and a bowl of soup.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can also order additional main dishes separately.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And for those who like to start their day with a tipple\u2014yes, they serve alcoholic drinks in the morning too!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For my onigiri, I chose <\/span>negi-miso<\/span><\/i> (green onion miso) and <\/span>mentaico<\/span><\/i> (spicy cod roe).<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The <\/span>mentaiko<\/span><\/i> onigiri was gently and loosely shaped, the rice grains of rice clinging together but also fluffy at the same time.<\/span><\/p>\n

The small mound of roe on top adds a burst of umami that pairs beautifully with the rice.<\/span><\/p>\n

You know how some onigiri leave you with just plain rice by the time you reach the end?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Not here!<\/span><\/p>\n

Coluhaco\u2019s onigiri are generously filled, so every bite is packed with flavor from start to finish.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Next, the <\/span>negi-miso<\/span><\/i> onigiri.<\/span><\/p>\n

The slightly sweet miso, combined with crisp, fresh green onions, makes for a perfect bite. The balance of flavors and textures is just right, complementing the rice beautifully.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The side dishes of the day were <\/span>tamagoyaki<\/span><\/i> (Japanese omelet) and tofu.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since the onigiri are quite filling, these small portions were just the right amount to complete the meal.<\/span><\/p>\n

The seasoning is light on the side dishes, designed to be in perfect balance when eaten together with the onigiri.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The soup changes daily, and on this visit, it was a milk miso soup.<\/span><\/p>\n

The combination of creamy milk and rich miso was surprisingly delicious!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Packed with vegetables, it felt both nourishing and satisfying\u2014a perfect way to start the day.<\/span><\/p>\n

A Place That Gives You the Get Up And Go<\/b><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Visiting Coluhaco was a wonderful way to begin the day.<\/span><\/p>\n

A thoughtfully crafted breakfast featuring flavorful onigiri, wholesome side dishes, and a nutritious soup\u2014what more could you ask for?<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s something about enjoying a freshly made, warm meal in the morning that just sets the tone for a great day.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you’re looking for a spot that will give you the energy you need to get through the day, Coluhaco is the place to go!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
