【Order】Dinner / Dîner JPY 31,900 Water and 1.5 glasses of wine ▲ Assorted Cheese Platter (3 types) Total per person: JPY 42,000 【Taste Impressions】 ○ Foie Gras Flan with Port Wine Flavor This flan, similar to chawanmushi (Japanese savory egg custard), bursts with rich umami the moment it hits your mouth. I’ve never experienced such an intense chawanmushi before. It has a sweetness from the fat, yet it’s not too heavy. ○ Baked Sole Albert Style What is this? It’s too delicious. I prepared by watching a Kimutaku drama, but the cooking of the fish at this exquisite restaurant is perfection. The outside is coated with a delightful crispy breadcrumb, while the inside features layers of exquisite, silky flesh (though I’m not familiar with the texture of silk). It’s simply perfect. And the sauce—pure magic. The umami and richness are intense and irresistible. ○ Lamb Pie Baked Maria Callas Style This is what I came here to eat. The crispy, fragrant pie serves as a stage for the overwhelmingly delicious lamb, all brought together by the incredibly tasty Périgueux sauce. It was a truly moving dish. The accompanying May Queen potatoes were also delicious, and I wished I could enjoy them at home. The birthday plate was incredibly cute!!! They drew the sunflower I requested!! 【Service】 The atmosphere was pleasant, and all the chefs and staff were charming and stylish. I appreciated their attentiveness. I wonder why their enunciation was a bit off, though—still cool! I was surprised to see the representative personally handing out business cards. I awkwardly asked for the bill with my gaze, which didn’t go well, haha. 【Overall Evaluation】 It was a wonderful restaurant. It didn’t feel overly formal, making it a great place for families to visit. Overall, the sauces were delicious and impressive, but at times I felt they could be a bit monotonous. It wasn’t boring, but I did become somewhat desensitized. Also, the lighting wasn’t ideal for taking pictures of the dishes! I appreciated the unpretentious vibe. It was a great meal! U・x・U
