Teresa has decided today she will take me to Nikko Mountains for our last road trip in Japan. The view from the car of the magnificent Nikko Mountains is so beautiful. The Nikko Mountains are mesmerizing as we kept driving towards them. Japan has many mesmerizing views because of the huge amount of nature that is so well preserved. As we started up the mountain I can not tell you how many countless switchbacks we went around to get to Lake Chūzenji. This is a scenic lake in Nikkō National Park in the city of Nikkō, Tochigi Prefecture, Japan. It was created 20,000 years ago when Mount Nantai (2484 m) erupted and blocked the river. No matter what time of the year you come to Nikko Mountains you will always find the natural beauty of nature at its finest. Even though it's spring in Utsunomiya Japan here on the mountain there is still snow covered hills and mountains.
The Adonis coffee shop is located right on Lake Chūzenji. There were only 2 parking spots but since it was early we made one of the spots ours. The coffee house has been remodeled from the last time I was here. The deck is much larger, but the view is still as spectacular as the first time I was here. So glad Teresa and Valerie are here to share the beauty with me.
The coffee house is nice and cozy and warm as the wind around here was a tad bit cool. The huge set of windows in the back of coffee house made for a spectacular view of the Nikko Mountains. I love Nikko and all the beauty it holds no matter what season I visit.
Each of us has ordered a cup of specialty coffee and are enjoying each others company. I am anxious to go see the restaurant called Le Michel in Nikko City. The owner is a friend of Teresa's whom she met through a guy we both worked with at one time. 
We have arrived at Le Michel's French restaurant in Nikko City. This restaurant is one of the best places I have eaten in Japan. It should be famous, seems to me that the ones that do know about this place only tell their closest friends. I could not find nothing on the internet about this wonderful place but so glad that now I know. Its a place everyone must eat at and enjoy the soba made crepe sandwiches and soba crepe pastry.

The owner Asami Yoshiko will greet you with a very big welcome smile and seat you at a table where there is always a good view.
