The city of southern Spain known as the birthplace of flamenco, Henres de la Freontera. Since sherry is produced in and around this city in Andalusian region, it is called "Bino de Heres wine" in local language.

Shelly is a fortified wine made by adding a small amount of brandy to white wine, and is considered to be one of the world's three largest spirit-enhanced wines along with Port wine and Madeira wines in Portugal. I'm not familiar with alcohol, but all of them were the names I've heard.

In areas such as the Iberian Peninsula, where temperature is high and temperature control is difficult, alcohol-enhanced wine is designed to prevent oxidation and spoilage, improve shelf life, and at the same time give individuality to the taste. It seems that the deep taste of old sake often appears in Sherry, which is aged with a unique system like an add-on in Japan.

At the Shuri Club, you can try a wide variety of sherry wines from a glass.

On this day, as an introductory edition, we ordered a tasting set that allows you to compare three types of drinks (top image).

From the left side of the photo, we chose one cup at a time for each category of Sheri liquor, from "Mansanja" to "Rachitana", fragrant and deep "Oroso" to "Balbadi Jooroso", and from "medium" made by blending cherries to "Laprasavieha".

When you arrange three glasses of different types, it seems that you can see the characteristics of the taste even from the color.

This list, which contains charts of 45 kinds of glass sherry, will be your own medical record that shows the brands you have drunk so far if you fill in your name and leave it in the store. The lineup carefully selected from about 200 kinds of Shelly sake is replaced every year, so by keeping a solid record, you can expect a new cup every time you visit.

Ensalada Velde (Green Salad)

I would like to call Green salad with oil and vinegar in Spanish today.

Red shrimp ahijo

Olive oil, which made the taste of the head shrimp into my own, immediately made me replace the bread.

Slow roast of Iberico pork

This is the one-push menu of Shiri Club. It takes time to cook, so I ordered it early. The shoulder loin baked at low temperature is moist and juicy. "Ororoso" will be the best companion for simple tastes with Spanish crystal salt and pepper.

Seafood paella

Speaking of Spain, paella. It is one of the leading roles that the table becomes gorgeous at once.

"Sole R" was added from the dry "Mansannija" because it goes well with seafood.

The last was a strawberry solve. The moment I ate a bite, I didn't think "Ore! （Olé）」。 The crimson sorbet with plenty of fruit is the ideal taste itself, and I really thought it was good to order desserts.

This time, we enjoyed cooking and drinking on the restaurant floor on the third floor, mainly table seats. The second floor is a bar counter with the image of a matured warehouse.

I couldn't imagine the atmosphere like a retreat at the end of the stairs from the entrance.

It's been a long time since I haven't gone abroad personally, but when I stepped into the Shiuri Club, I was wrapped in the illusion of getting lost in the city of Spain. I was very happy to travel around the world of food in Chuo-ku for the first time in a while.

The interior of the restaurant, which is lined with sherry sake, is like a bar on the street corner of Spain.

In Chuo-ku, there is not only a door to history from Edo to Tokyo, but there are many restaurants and facilities that have characteristics that allow you to trip to the cultures of all over Japan and around the world. Please enjoy the whole Chuo-ku from various viewpoints in 2023. We look forward to seeing you.

The French gate of Yasuaki Elementary School is slightly visible at the back of the signboard.
