Lanai Cafe at YouMe Town Hatsukaichi

YouMe Town is a chain of malls, much like Westfield. They have many of them but the newest and largest one near us is in Hatsukaichi. They have tons of stores and restaurants. This time instead of dining at the golden M, we decided to try a Hawaiian pancake cafe called Lanai Cafe. They had pancakes galore as well as hamburgers. We chose to sit outside, which was nice to be able to let the kids run around while we waited for our food. Restaurants are not the most fun when trying to keep three little kids in line. The kids shared a large pancake plate with fruit and a tower of whipped cream (so heavy it fell over before I could get a picture) and Chris got a bacon cheeseburger and french fries. As pictured below, he got enough ketchup for one fry for his entire plate and when he asked for more after one fry was consumed, he got the same amount again! Ketchup is definitely not a staple condiment in Japan. I'll have to start carrying ketchup with us when we go out just in case. The pancakes were delicious and it was a nice change from our safe bet, McDonalds.
