けんけんの関西食べある記
Enjoy a luxurious atmosphere with a view of Osaka's night view from a private room at the top floor of Hotel Plaza Osaka, at "Osaka" restaurant! Last time I visited, I indulged in teppanyaki cuisine in a stylish space. This time, I came to try the French course instead of teppanyaki! The restaurant is about a 10-minute walk from the west exit of Juso Station. Both the exterior and interior exude a high-class feel. There were a few foreign customers as well. Last time, I sat at the counter seat with a teppanyaki grill in front of me, but this time, I had a completely private room! A spacious private room with a view of Osaka's night view from outside, all to myself! Watching the Yodogawa Fireworks Festival from here would be an amazing experience! Reservations are required for the fireworks festival day, and there is a special fee on that day. Perfect for a slightly more luxurious date, anniversary, birthday, etc.! It is said that some people have proposed here. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be proposed to in such a lovely place? I ordered the French course this time! First, we toasted with white wine. The first dish was Mongou squid with basil oil dressing! The appearance is beautiful, with the green of peas, the white of squid, and the red of red-core radish, creating a colorful dish. The Mongou squid has a sticky texture and a slightly sweet taste. It paired well with the saltiness of French caviar! Next was foie gras and roasted duck! Foie gras was a whole piece, cooked luxuriously. The taste was exquisite, with the rich and aromatic flavor of foie gras melting in the mouth, leaving only the aftertaste. The roasted duck had no peculiar smell and was easy to eat. It had a firm texture, and the flavor of the duck spread with each bite! On the side was a beautifully and artistically arranged apple galette. It was delicious with a crispy texture and a sweet finish with granulated sugar. Next was sautéed lobster and asparagus! Following foie gras, there was lobster! It was surprising to have a series of high-quality ingredients. Sautéed asparagus and chestnuts were served on the side. The sauce on top of the lobster was an American sauce made from lobster shells! When eaten with the sauce, the flavor and aroma of the lobster spread in the mouth, making it delicious! The main dish was grilled Omi beef with winter truffles! On top were five luxurious slices of winter truffles! The green sauce was a mustard basil sauce. When eaten with Omi beef and truffles, the taste was unlike anything I had ever experienced! The juicy taste of Omi beef and the rich aroma of truffles harmonized with each other without interfering, bringing out the best of each! The dessert after the meal was seasonal fruits and black sugar ice cream. The white strawberries were a variety called "Danshu" strawberries, sweeter than regular red strawberries and delicious! The black sugar ice cream had a gentle sweetness, perfect for a post-meal dessert! You could choose between tea or coffee. I chose hot coffee. The coffee cup here has a super cute design! I'll definitely buy it someday, haha. Last time it was teppanyaki, but this time the French cuisine was exquisite! The spacious private room is perfect for dates, anniversaries, and special occasions! It was a special space where you could feel a sense of exclusivity! I can't go there often, but it's a restaurant I want to visit for a special treat once in a while!
