米粉クレープumeka 尼崎店

米粉クレープumeka 尼崎店 is a specialty crepe shop that opened in February 2025 in the Nishi-Namba area of Amagasaki. The shop specializes in crepes made with 100% domestic rice flour, offering a unique twist on the traditional French treat. Located in a residential neighborhood, the storefront is marked by a calm blue door and a standing sign, making it easy to spot. The intimate interior features a warm, welcoming atmosphere with white walls and natural wood accents, creating a cozy space to enjoy crepes. The shop offers both sweet and savory options, including items like "Margherita" alongside dessert selections. The owner, Umeda-san, previously ran a Sunday-only operation in Akashi before realizing her dream of opening her own dedicated storefront. She brings two years of experience from working at a sweets shop during her student days. The menu showcases the versatility of rice flour crepes with thoughtfully crafted offerings. Signature items include the "Fermented Butter Sugar" (¥700), which highlights the pure flavor of the rice flour dough paired with generous amounts of fermented butter and muscovado sugar, creating a distinctive "crispy-chewy" texture. Weekly limited-edition crepes rotate regularly, such as the "Zaku Zaku Chocolate" (¥750) featuring couverture chocolate and 100% Hokkaido fresh cream. Local collaborations include strawberry crepes using premium strawberries from Sasahara Vegetable Garden in Amagasaki. The shop appeals to crepe enthusiasts seeking healthier, grain-based alternatives without compromising on taste and quality. Each creation demonstrates careful ingredient selection and meticulous preparation, with the owner actively developing new menu items to make rice flour sweets more accessible to the community.
