Items selected from around the world

As a department store, the store also has an extensive retail space. The owner has selected items and Greek foods selected by the Greek staff that you cannot find anywhere else.

From here, we will pick up and introduce recommended items.

CHRISOMELO

Precious honey from Greece, which is said to be the oldest beekeeping area in the world. The carefully selected honey, which is carefully selected by speaking directly with the producers and tasting each piece, is a masterpiece that is hard to find anywhere else.

Philotimo

The Greek olives that we were curious about and purchased. There aren't many olives this size. Among the plain type with nothing in it, with almonds, and with garlic, we bought the one with almonds.

It was so delicious that we almost flipped over. We ate it all in no time. This is a repeat order!

Original item "GS" by "GENERAL SUPPLY", a professional design group based in Nagoya that is active in Japan and overseas.

A Mino-yaki mug made in Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture, with an emphasis on ease of use, based on the concept of ``a simple, basic pottery for everyday use.'' The simple and minimalist design goes perfectly with the plates you have on hand.

Another popular item from GS is the Canvas Folding Tote Bag. The fabric used is Kurashiki Canvas, which is said to be the highest quality canvas. Using natural materials, each item is carefully crafted using traditional weaving methods.

The simple design is unisex and can be enjoyed and used by anyone.

1616 / Arita Japan

The dish "1616 / Arita Japan" is used in the store. This brand of Arita-yaki porcelain attempts a completely different design approach from the conventional image of Arita-yaki porcelain.

It features a neutral, easy-to-use design and is non-absorbent, so it won't soak up oil, soy sauce, etc.

@aroma

They also have a very extensive line of aroma oils. The brand "@aroma" is based on the concept of "designing space with aromatherapy," and uses 100% natural ingredients, emphasizing the importance of nature's original fragrance.

There are many variations, so please try to find the scent you like while sniffing at the store.

In addition to the items introduced this time, there are many attractive items, so please enjoy them together with the cafe.

Life Designs staff also love to travel, so we lost track of time and talked about travel. The owner, Mr. Saiki, is very knowledgeable, so you may be able to hear information that is not in the guidebook.

AIRSIDE has many different faces, including a cafe and a department store where you can buy products from all over the world. To be honest, we think it's hard to find such a sophisticated restaurant even in Nagoya.

It takes about an hour by car from Nagoya to Yokkaichi, so be sure to visit and enjoy the daily life.
