![à petits pas.](https://www.hokkaido-glutenfree.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/DSC_1236-1024x576.jpg)
à petits pas…….means “with one small step” in French.
Ms. Asakura, the owner, started this store with “one step that you can take now” and the concept is “creation, circulation, healing and harmony that can lead to small steps for visitors.
The menu at the cafe is basically vegan and gluten-free. The cafe offers meals and sweets made from carefully selected ingredients such as organic vegetables, rice flour, fair trade coffee and tea, etc., which are “kind to the body, mind, and environment.
Aptipa celebrates its 14th anniversary in April 2023, having nurtured the small things it can do now, one step at a time.
Aptipa, now in its 15th year, continues to create meals and a space where visitors can feel satisfied in body and soul and smile.

The pot-au-feu, filled with a variety of root vegetables, had a gentle flavor with a hint of herbs. I thought the style of serving it with brown rice was also quite a good match.
Aptipa makes all of its own dressings and sauces. Even the accompanying salads have tricks to offer a variety of flavors, such as a holy basil sauce and a sweet summer orange dressing.
And the most eye-catching thing is the beautiful coloring. Combined with the antique-style dishes that matched the atmosphere of the restaurant, the lunch plate was a heart-stirring experience.The pot-au-feu, filled with a variety of root vegetables, had a gentle flavor with a hint of herbs.

Matcha and raspberry rice flour cake. The decorative cookies are matcha in the back and maple cinnamon in the front.
The gentle taste of cream made from tofu and the sweet and sour raspberries were a delicious match for the bittersweet matcha cake.Matcha and raspberry rice flour cake. The decorative cookies are matcha in the back and maple cinnamon in the front.

It was so cozy that my accompanying friend and I got chatting and ordered more coffee.
It is fair trade organic coffee.
The coffee is light on the palate, but has a mildly sweet aftertaste and a pleasant lingering taste in the mouth.It was so cozy that my accompanying friend and I got chatting and ordered more coffee.
