Madeline the micro cafe in a Citroen

A lot of things in Japan are compact, including this French style retro micro-cafe inside an old Citroen car called Madeline.

Madeline

This cafe is sometimes parked in a vacant block along the Meguro River in Nakameguro.  The driver/cafe owner sits in the back where the seat would normally be located, and dispenses du cafe out the back.  It looks like quite a cramped workplace, but he only seems to jump in the back when there’s a customer to serve. The coffee’s not bad either.

I’ve come across Madeline before, but thought she was worth another short post since I found her in the same place as about this time last year.
