At Cafe de Cuore in the Maenocho area of Itabashi ward in Tokyo, I started with pancakes and iced coffee, and then wrote the Kanji using a Pilot Lightive Pen with M-size nib and Maruzen Athena ink.

This took a while, and I also got distracted listening to some cafe music in between - so ultimately, I ended up staying for dinner as well. The specialty at this place is “Healthy Soup Curry”, and it hit the spot quite nicely at the end of the learning session.
