I enjoyed the "Beautiful Medicinal Cuisine Afternoon Tea" at Penglai Pavilion, which started on June 1st. This afternoon tea incorporates the theory of medicinal cuisine that enhances women's beauty, featuring traditional Hong Kong dim sum, original medicinal teas from Penglai Pavilion, and three types of Chinese tea to complement the dishes. The course includes various dishes such as Steamed Suppon Soup, Crystal Dumplings with shrimp and colorful vegetables, Wolfberry Siu Mai, and Oyster Sauce Bamboo Rolls. The Afternoon Tea Stand offers treats like Char Siu Puff Pastry, Mini Almond Tofu, Mini Mango Pudding, and more. The dishes are not only delicious but also contain ingredients that contribute to women's beauty. The tea served with the dishes includes the Penglai Pavilion original medicinal tea, which is refreshing and delightful. The Afternoon Tea experience is served in courses, starting with the soup, followed by warm dim sum, and ending with a mix of sweet and savory treats. The Chef's special Char Siu Puff Pastry and Egg Tart were particularly impressive. The tea served is carefully selected to complement the dishes, with different teas served at different times. Overall, the love and thought put into the medicinal cuisine Afternoon Tea at Penglai Pavilion were truly impressive, and I highly recommend it for a satisfying and enjoyable dining experience.

There were hardly any people! I like the private rooms here. The braised shark fin dish is 100 grams - it's a bit cloudy but I like it, although my companion didn't care for it much. Are there any good Chinese restaurants in Osaka? Whenever I come to a Chinese restaurant, I always order Pao (a bun filled with braised pork belly, etc.). Chinese alcohol is great! I didn't have any today, but have you tried Kecantinchu? If you make a reservation one day in advance, you can try a special delicacy. The soup is amazing, so be sure to order it. The cuisine seems more focused on Szechuan dishes and dim sum, maybe not so much on Cantonese dishes?

Here, we visited a famous restaurant in Kansai, with 4 people for a second round on a weekday night. The inside of the restaurant is very impressive, with a long corridor glowing in green lights. It is a large establishment with many private rooms, totaling 220 seats. We ordered dishes such as "Mapo Tofu," "Sweet and Sour Pork," "Shrimp Chili," "Hinshinrou Grilled Gyoza," "Char Siu and Shrimp Fried Rice," and "Almond Jelly," along with some alcohol. The food here is generally high-end, but there are many items priced under 1,000 yen and in the 1,000 yen range, making it possible to order reasonably. The Mapo Tofu, fried rice, and grilled gyoza were of good quality even though they were from the more affordable menu. Next time, I would like to try some of the high-end dishes as well! Thank you for the meal!

I was taken to this high-class restaurant for a gathering dinner. The regular course menu included dishes like sweet and sour pork, mapo tofu, shark fin soup, shrimp with mayonnaise, and fried rice, which were all delicious but felt a bit ordinary. Next time, I'll try something a bit more unique.

I finally went to Hotei Chinrou. Thank you for the arrangements. It was a visit for a company gathering. I was impressed by the path from the entrance to the private room. My excitement increased even before the meal. I would love to visit again if I have the chance. Thank you for the wonderful meal. #Hotei Chinrou #Chinese

I finally had the opportunity to visit this restaurant as I returned to Kansai. The ability to make reservations online has increased my chances of visiting. I went for lunch with my parents, and the spacious room was perfect for us to relax. I did some research before going with my family, and we ordered the Fine Dining Lunch set for 6000 yen. The appetizer platter was delicious, especially the char siu. The shark fin soup was decent. I had the sautéed abalone, which was exceptional. My parents had the sautéed Japanese beef sirloin with seasonal vegetables. We also ordered the large prawns with mayonnaise sauce, which was incredibly tasty. Without this dish, we might not have been as satisfied. The prawns were large and had a great texture. The noodles and fried rice were good, although the fried rice was a bit cold. The dessert was okay. Overall, I would like to visit this restaurant again with my family and try different dishes. The total bill was 28160 yen. The cold noodles look delicious! I must visit again.

I ordered the menu with plenty of grilled vegetables and cold noodles with either regular noodles or spinach noodles. I chose spinach noodles which are mixed with spinach. The seasoning options were sesame or soy sauce. The dish also came with soybean paste and mustard. The total cost was 2,500 yen including tax, but I opted for the recommended half size which cost 1,650 yen including tax. Thank you for the delicious meal! Thank you, Osaka Haitinrou!

Osaka Hirenrou: Osaka Umeda Hilton Plaza East: Tabelog 3.70 / Top 100 Restaurants 2023: 5500 Had a Chinese lunch with friends, lots of vegetables and medicinal cuisine. The atmosphere was great and the food was delicious. #Osaka #OsakaGourmet #OsakaLunch #OsakaHirenrou #HiltonPlazaEast #UmedaLunch #UmedaChinese #Top100Restaurants2023 #TabelogOsaka #TabelogHighRating #LikeForLike

Hundred restaurants. 7th floor of Hilton Plaza. Medicinal cuisine lunch course. The seasoning is overall on the stronger side (perhaps catering to the customers' preferences), but the composition of the dishes is really good. If you ask for "less salt," it tastes delicious. The long-grain rice cooked in an earthen pot was quite tasty. The presentation of the dishes also adds to the excitement.

The omakase lunch course was priced at ¥7500 per person and the seating was for 2 hours, allowing us to enjoy our meal slowly. Drinks were Asahi Super Dry for ¥1000, a bit pricey but expected at Hilton. Upon entering the restaurant, we were guided to a private room through a dazzling hallway. The food was delicious and overall, it was a pleasant dining experience.

The dishes at the seminar are always delicious, so this time I made a reservation for a private room with a light course with a friend. The soup is not as delicious as the usual life-saving soup, but the ingredients were exceptionally tasty, and I felt like I was truly savoring life. We ordered one drink and the total cost for two people was just under 13,000 yen.

I attended a seminar in spring after a long time. The people at the same table were all very elegant. Many of them were repeat attendees, so there were a lot of "long time no see!" greetings. The hot pot soup warmed me up from the core of my body as soon as I drank it. The seminar fee has been raised this time to 13,500 yen. But no complaints, it was worth it.

Located a 5-7 minute walk from Nishi-Umeda Station is the Chinese restaurant "Hirendou" in Osaka. Operating on the 7th floor of Hilton Plaza East, this popular restaurant offers a luxurious Chinese cuisine experience. It was selected as one of the top 100 Chinese restaurants in the west in 2023. With a total of 220 seats, including small private rooms and a banquet hall that can accommodate up to 80 people, this restaurant is perfect for large group reservations. We tried the "Eiga no Nobori Course" this time, which includes popular Chinese dishes such as shrimp chili, shrimp mayo, sweet and sour pork, fried rice, and mapo tofu. The quality and excellence of the dishes were evident from the beginning, with the savory char siu roasted to perfection and the flavorful shark fin soup. The luxurious shrimp chili and shrimp mayo made with large prawns, the tangy sweet and sour pork, the spicy and juicy mapo tofu, and the decadent fried rice with wagyu beef were all exceptional. The ambiance, service, and overall experience at this upscale restaurant are truly worth it, so be sure to visit. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I finally visited the restaurant I've always wanted to go to, Osaka Heichinrou. I had reserved the chef's special lunch course. They provided a private room for us, so we could enjoy our meal in peace. It was delicious. I would love to visit again. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

Today I enjoyed a medicinal herb afternoon tea - at my age, I want to keep my body and skin healthy. They say you are what you eat, so it's important to eat good things for your body. The set included a gentle black chicken soup, dim sum, Chinese sweets, and three types of tea: Hua Yang Gui Lai Cha (which was delicious), Lao Shou Mei, and Pu'er tea. It ended with Pu'er tea to finish off the meal. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I ordered the Chef's Special Course (¥14,000 per person, tax included, minimum 2 people). It included Fish Sashimi, Shark Fin Steamed Soup, and Authentic Oven-Roasted Peking Duck. The steamed soup was made without any seasonings, allowing the natural flavors of the ingredients to shine through. Each dish was served in moderate portions, allowing me to enjoy them until the end. The restaurant offers private dining rooms.

The meal I received cost 9,000 yen including tax. I had the "Eikabishi Kaiseki Course" which included a seasonal appetizer platter, authentic oven-baked pork shoulder char siu, dried scallop and kinoko mushroom shark fin soup, shrimp with mayonnaise and chili sauce, mapo tofu, black vinegar pork, wagyu beef and vegetable fried rice, seasonal fruit compote with almond tofu, champagne, Qingdao beer, and highball. The interior of the restaurant is very luxurious and dining in a private room enhances the atmosphere. Hinchinrou is the best! 🤤

Osaka Hiren Chinzanrou. It is a must-visit for eating Chinese cuisine. It may be a bit pricey in Osaka, but you can't avoid it if you want to taste the deliciousness. The taste is, needless to say, delicious. I have always eaten cheap food, but I still find it delicious. Isn't that enough?

Today, I was entertained by a business partner. The course had a luxurious feel with shark fin dishes. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with impressive green lighting. We started with Chinese-style sashimi of black sea bream, which was delicious with wasabi and lime. The slightly sweet Hong Kong-style char siu also paired well with the drinks. The awaited shark fin dish was amazing, with a rich chicken broth soup. The Peking duck was carved tableside and wrapped for us, which was fantastic. The meal ended with ginger-flavored oysters and a truffle-scented noodle dish. It was quite filling and delicious.

It was a hassle, so I decided to order the set meal. I asked for the female crab. The portion was small and it took a long time to steam, so they kept recommending adding more. I added Shanghai crab fried rice for 4,000 yen. Surprisingly, the portion was large. The Shanghai crab arrived. It was smaller than I expected. I was expecting a rich taste like that of a snow crab, but it was surprisingly protein-rich! Maybe I'll try it again in my next life?
