After two years, I finally returned to Gessen, one of Osaka's top luxury Chinese restaurants, which has become nearly impossible to book. The modern Chinese cuisine, featuring a subtle spiciness and utilizing vegetable broth, is truly unique. With a one-round system, it’s great to be able to enjoy drinks at a leisurely pace. On this day, there were so many menu options that we spent 4.5 hours! I had a fantastic time (laughs).**Menu** Appetizers - Yodare Chicken - Fried Shiitake Mushrooms - Octopus with Sichuan Pepper - Crushed Cucumbers - Meat Miso - Senshu Eggplant with Sakura Shrimp - New Potato Mochi with Calpis Butter - Stir-fried Kousinsai with Salt (strong seasoning) - Homemade Karasumi and Abalone Cold Rice Noodles - White Asparagus from Loire, Salt Truffle Sauce - Steamed Kinmedai (Golden Eye Snapper) - Hairy Crab and Egg Crab Omelette - Wagyu Beef with Green Peppers - Spicy Chicken - Sichuan Mapo Tofu - Almond Tofu - Sesame Balls When it comes to Gessen, wine is a must. We enjoyed two bottles of orange wine and two bottles of red, perfectly paired with our dishes. The well-aged wines were truly delicious.Payment is cash only.What a wonderful experience!
