Lunch buffet at Royal Park Hotel! "Chef's Dining Symphony"

[Edamame] April 30, 2017 14:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.

 

Actually, my friend from middle and high school was working in my neighbourhood.

So when she's not busy with her work, she sometimes has lunch together.

That's why I've had lunch with her today as well.


The location is on the first floor of the Royal Park Hotel.

It's "Chef's Dining Symphony"!

DSC_1044-1.jpg

Actually, the coffee shop was renewed this March, right?

At that time, I was looking at a flyer and thinking I wanted to go someday.

I'm looking for a lunch buffet! (3,564 yen (including tax and service charges))

It's exciting for some reason to have a buffet.

I can't eat as much as I was a student because I'm not young anymore.

It's fun to have a lot of things.


That's why I came to the hotel lobby.

IMG_2576-1.jpg

This atmosphere is gorgeous, isn't it?

But... just today

DSC_1037-1.jpg

Dango rather than flowers!

Rather, meat!

It's the flower of the lunch buffet.

It was a soft and delicious steak.

The sauce on the sauce is exactly the taste of the hotel.


And this is the dish of the 1-year-old daughter, Azuki.

DSC_1038-1.jpg

The good thing about the buffet is before the rice comes out.

I don't have to wait for time.

It is safe to give a small child a meal right away.

(If you wait too much when you are too hungry ... it will be a riot.)

What's your favorite of Azuki?

・Sandwich (Ham Cheese & Potato Salada)

・Spanish-style omelet

I did it.

The sandwich is large enough for small children to hold.

I think it was very easy to eat.

Azuki, who is just practicing fork, has Spanish style omelet

Great size and hardness to eat with a fork yourself.

I was flattened at a faster speed than usual.

In addition, the white fish seemed to be moist and soft and easy to eat.

Vegetables are also tomatoes, cucumbers, etc.

There was something that was easy for even small children to eat, so I ate it.

・・・ I was surprised that my friend said, "Azuki-chan, I eat well!" (laughs).


And speaking of a buffet ...

DSC_1039-1.jpg

Delicious cake!

I'm happy to be able to eat a lot little by little! That's right.

In addition, fruit jellyApple, mousse, etc.

There were a lot of things.

That's right. The banana caramelize was delicious!

Simple, warm bananas and applesApple are made of caramel ...

It was a gentle sweetness that made me happy.

(And forget to take a picture of it. 。 。)


I want to conquer all of them.

The limit of the stomach is

Let's go on again.

There's still a lot of talk with friends ...

It's a hotel right next to Suitengu Shrine, so it's very smooth and smart.

After all, it's safe.

By the way, this time, Azuki used a high chair (so-called children's chair).

You can leave it as a stroller.

DSC_1040-1.jpg


There is also a hotel-made cake counter next to the checkout counter.

DSC_1042-1.jpg

Among them, I was worried about it.

DSC_1043-1.jpg

"Tsuboyaki Honey Pudding" (1620 yen)!

The bowl is cute and has an impact in size.

Someday, when I take my chase somewhere

I thought I wanted to use it.

A new nice cafe in Hamacho! 「FRUIT & HERB TEA CAFE ONE'S」

[Edamame] April 27, 2017 09:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.


The other day, I was waiting for a bus at the Hamacho 3-chome (Tornale) bus stop on the Metro Link Nihonbashi E Line.

I found a nice cafe on the other side of Shin-ohashi-dori St.

Certainly, I've been worried since I was doing interior work.

A wonderful Saga with an interior design that gives you a little glimpse.

What kind of shop will it be? I thought it was a wonderful cafe.


That's why I can't help not go.

It opened on April 19

FRUIT & HERB TEA CAFE ONE'S!

IMG_2563-1.jpg

From the shop, the dogs are Hello

This shop, a shop where you can bring your dog into the shop.

When I entered, half of the customers were with their dogs.

Azuki, a one-year-old daughter, seemed to be happy because there were many cute dogs.

Well, when I get a seat.

IMG_2558-1.jpg

IMG_2557-1.jpg

The flowers on display are also beautiful!

And I can use WIFI as well.

Because it is this time of life, there are many people who can help.


IMG_2562-1.jpg

It seems that this blackboard is handmade (hand-painted) by the staff!

IMG_2570-1.jpg

The atmosphere of the seat is like this.

IMG_2571-1.jpg

There are also cookies that look delicious at the counter.


Well, let's order.

IMG_2559-1.jpg

Recommended is organic soy milk smoothies (420 yen + tax).

"Rose & Strawberry" or "Lavender & Blueberry"

That's right...

IMG_2556-1.jpg

Choose "Lavender & Blueberry".

It's not too sweet and refreshing.


And I wondered if my daughter, Azuki, can be a snack ...

I ordered "Backet French toast (bananas and fresh cream)" (700 yen + tax).

Ask the shop, "Can you make a part that doesn't have a sweet?"

Why don't you listen to it?

IMG_2560-1.jpg

Two of the four French toasts have toppings.

(Banana & raisins & fresh cream & maple syrup)

IMG_2561-1.jpg

And the remaining two sheets are "no toppings".

I served it on a separate plate.

Thank you very much for your attention.

The taste is also delicious.

I was healed by the gentle sweetness of fresh cream.

Azuki also likes French toast.

It was pakupaku, sir.

As a gift to commemorate the opening

IMG_2565-1.jpg

I had herb tea and magnets.

IMG_2568-1.jpg

It was a fruity, sweet, and gorgeous tea.

And...

IMG_2566-1.jpg

Actually, this shop is near here

It seems to be the sister store of Green Park Avenue, a specialty store of herb tea.

So there are many kinds of herb tea menus.

I'm going to try it next time.


※For those with children.

This shop does not have a chair for children, but it is OK to enter with a stroller.

Azuki (1 year and 10 months) took off his shoes and sat down on an adult chair.

Is the cutlery big? I thought it was

Surprisingly, I used an ordinary fork for adults.

There is a "small spoon for ice cream" in the shop.

"Plastic Spoon Fork".

If you are uneasy, it may be safer to bring a fork for small children.

(I think French toast would be okay if you use your hand.)

And yeah.

Even if you're worried about eat-in,

There is also a menu where you can take out.

I think it's an ant to try it out.

Sekiyama is a charming sushi (store) where Kazuha blooms.

[Silver] April 22, 2017 12:00

 At the intersection with Daimon Street, about 100 meters from amazake Yokocho in Ningyocho, there is Osaka Sushi Shop and Sekiyama. For a long time, the cherry blossoms in front of this store were interested in what kind of flowers would bloom and were looking forward to it.

DSC05001.JPG

 In mid-April, Yae-zakura with lots of white flowers, Kazuha was in full bloom. Today, I was fascinated not only by sushi but also by Yae-zakura.

"Kazuha (Ichiyo)" is a double and light red Satozakura (oshima cherry). The pistil changes like a thin leaf (foliage), so it was named like this.

If you introduce the shop, it is a shop specializing in take-out. Various combinations of pressed sushi such as mackerel, salmon, sea bream, etc. are sold, thick rolled sushi and tea cloth sushi are sold. Please drop in once.

 

 

Careful California cuisine ★Bistroburnyard

[Mapo ★] April 20, 2017 12:00

We are particular about direct production ingredients on the 7th floor of Kirarito Ginza.
It's a bistro of California cuisine.
 

DSC_0079.JPG
  
This time, we visited with five girls.
The interior of the store is very bright due to the sunlight coming from Ginza Street.
It's just a California-like atmosphere and full of openness.
 

DSC_0075.JPG
 

There are also four kinds of homemade bread for toast sparkling.
You can choose from two kinds of appetizers, and we made potato and clam chowder.

I was talking about my work first and it was completely cold, but it's delicious even when it cools!
 

DSC_0076.JPG

 
The main one is the red sea bream roast fig and sour cream sauce.
The skin was also crisp and delicious.
 

DSC_0077.JPG

 

The dessert is avocado ice cream.
I'm not good at avocado, but I was able to eat it because it's sweet!
The coffee comes with cookies, so it's 2500 yen!
 

DSC_0078.JPG

 

It was a very satisfying lunch, and the inside of the store was crowded with customers.

[Higashinihombashi] Recommended Thai food "Bankoklara Cafeteria"

[Ino-chan] April 18, 2017 09:00

I came to find a shop with a fun name. The name is Bancoklara Cafeteria.

I'm a Thai restaurant in Higashinihombashi.

The word "Larara" seems to have the meaning of "Nobi-ri" and "Raku-ni" in Thailand.

IMG_7279.JPG

The shop is on the second floor, so we go up the stairs. The clerk greeted me with a smile.

The interior of the store was very comfortable with a nostalgic atmosphere.

IMG_0085.jpg

IMG_7271.JPG

 

Well, what I chose from the lunch menu...

Popular number one "Kao Mangai = steamed chicken and cooked rice (with soup)"

The sauce with ginger was delicious.

IMG_0080.jpg

 

"Gaigapao = chicken ground meat and holly basil fried rice (with fried egg)"

I'm full of stomach.

IMG_0084.jpg

"Tom Yam Kun Mini United States Noodles"

The soup had an exquisite balance between spicy and sour taste. I want to eat it again!

There was also a "mini-mini draft beer" that would be nice when you wanted to drink a little bit.

IMG_0076.jpg

 

There are plenty of mini-size side menus, so you can enjoy various combinations.

The lunch time on this day was not interrupted by customers.

There were a lot of people. It was very popular.

Lara Cafeteria, "Nobi-ri" and "Lak-ni" are recommended!
