食べ過ぎ太り過ぎ
I suddenly had to be hospitalized, but I was discharged unexpectedly a week ago. This hospitalization was supposed to be short-term, lasting about a month, but I was discharged after about 20 days. However, even after discharge, I have to go for outpatient visits on weekdays. It has been a week since I was discharged, and I have finally completed replying to comments on reviews. I am gradually able to resume responding to comments from everyone. I am grateful for the many likes on the reviews I posted during my hospitalization. Your support has been a great encouragement for my recovery. I have plans for another hospitalization by the end of the year, but the timing is uncertain due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Thank you for your continued support. [February 2021] After returning home from the hospital, the first place I headed to was a department store like Mitsukoshi Sapporo. I was quite busy in the hospital bed. (laughs) But I was quite tired, so I rested for a while after returning home. When I finally turned on my computer after three weeks, I found a mountain of emails. From Tabelog, I received notifications about "deleting registered reviews of stores" and "awarding the Reviewer Award 2021 Bronze." I also received the Bronze award in 2020, but I had given up on it as I was hospitalized for two full months in 2020. It was an unexpected award two years in a row. I am grateful for everyone's support. "Solveil" is a restaurant at the Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel. It opened on February 1, 2021. I made a lunch reservation over the phone, and the earliest available seat was on February 5th. Currently, lunch buffet reservations have a two-week waiting period. I visited on the designated day and time. When I made the phone reservation, I was informed of a 20% discount for mentioning Tabelog. I visited for lunch with my usual companion directly from the hospital. This restaurant is located on the 2nd floor of the Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel near JR Sapporo Station in the JR Sapporo Station area of Chuo-ku, Sapporo. Please check the exact location of the restaurant on Tabelog. I visited at 12:30 on a weekday. From the restaurant, you have a good view of the former Hokkaido Government Office garden. Lunch is buffet style, where you choose your main dish. I ordered the "Chicken Kiev-style with Lightly Stewed Green Peas Buffet for 2200 yen" from the opening campaign. I was advised to go get the buffet dishes first as it would take some time. I went to get the buffet dishes with my usual companion. After waiting for about 30 minutes, the main dish was served. The "Chicken Kiev-style with Lightly Stewed Green Peas" dish looked colorful and beautiful, and the advice was given that sometimes the juice clears when cutting into it. It had a visually appealing look and the taste was quite good. The buffet all-you-can-eat menu included about 8 types of dishes such as prosciutto and pickles, Hokkaido chicken pot-au-feu, octopus carpaccio, seafood doria, and roasted vegetables like carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, and pumpkins. It also included 3 types of bread, 7 types of salads, 8 types of side ingredients, and 8 types of dressings. For dessert, there were apple tart, roll cake, chocolate cake, macarons, green tea pudding, Hokkaido Fromage Blanc mousse, lemon jelly with mint flavor, and various drinks like coffee, tea, juices, and iced tea. The price for the opening campaign lunch was 2200 yen, but with the Tabelog discount, it was 1760 yen (tax included). The "Opening Campaign Lunch" was quite a luxurious lunch buffet. Although there were some menu items that seemed repetitive in the buffet, overall, the dishes were well-prepared. They continued serving dishes until the end. The main dish "Chicken Kiev-style with Lightly Stewed Green Peas" had a quality that exceeded its price. Hotel cuisine indeed provides a sense of security. The two-week wait was justified by the quality of the buffet.
