Sometimes, foreigners come to the event who travel in Japan or go to a Japanese language school in Kyoto.  So participants have an opportunity to out put English words or phrases they have learned.

The café staff member facilitates the event, she engages every participant in conversation, so everyone has a chance to speak English.
