Up to now, has combined the Dandan noodles and pancakes " Dandan pancake or try to eat", tried to bake bread cake of scallions containing Rito, ene have to eat a little unusual "meal-based" pancake Eating editorial department. This time, I went to eat pancakes that I could enjoy the mariage of truffles and foie gras.

Both truffles and foie gras! What a pancake ...
Both truffles and foie gras! What a pancake ...

Hotel InterContinental Tokyo Bay (Minato-ku, Tokyo) is where you can eat pancakes that sound luxurious. It is located on the beach overlooking the Odaiba area, about a 10-minute walk from Hamamatsucho Station. The scenery is reminiscent of a fashionable port town because the pier is nearby. It is also a superb view point where you can see from Rainbow Bridge to Odaiba. I think this is a more "adult" atmosphere when you come at night.

The pancake you are looking for, "New Sense Adult Truffle Pancake," is served in the New York Lounge on the 1st floor. It was released for a limited time last fall, but it was so popular that it became a regular menu. The price is 3,333 yen for a single item! Doublet for some reason! Easy to remember but expensive ...! However, I also order champagne, which is recommended.

On the large plate that was brought in, there was "something to cook" that was far from the image of pancakes. The truffles and bacon are the most eye-catching. I don't know what's going on anymore.

If you look closely, you can see that there are two pancakes in the center of the plate, and bacon is placed on top of them, and topped with what seems to be a poached egg. Furthermore, it seems that the sauce is sprinkled on it and the truffles are scattered. Is it foie gras that is rugged around the pancakes? The mellow scent of truffles still attacks the sense of smell.

What is it ...
What is it ...

Insert the knife and the egg will melt as expected. And there was prosciutto sandwiched between the two pancakes! Plenty of sauce is entwined with these and brought to the mouth with the toppings of foie gras and truffles. The shock of its taste! This is not a pancake, it's a fine French !!

Oh
Oh
Oh…
Oh…

When you put it in your mouth, the scent of truffles spreads softly. The rich flavor of the sauce (called "Perigueux sauce") and the saltiness of bacon and prosciutto are added to it, creating a "French scent" at once. The pancake dough is not too sweet and has a taste that is not overstated, and it is well integrated with the sauce and ingredients, so there is no sense of discomfort. In fact, in addition to the toppings, the sauce and the dough also contain truffles ! You can even get the illusion of eating a large foie gras with plenty of sauce. "Foie gras + Perigueux sauce" ... After all it is French.

It was a pancake with a new sensation that I couldn't think of, unlike any "meal system" I had ever eaten.

Not a pancake, but a "French dish"
Not a pancake, but a "French dish"

That's right, this pancake is a dish developed by the chef of the French restaurant next to the lounge and made in the restaurant's kitchen. The combination of pancakes with mysterious ingredients such as truffles, foie gras, prosciutto, bacon, and poached eggs is well-balanced, which is unique to the French chef's skill. Unintentionally, I wanted to exhaust all the sauce. Rather than "to eat pancakes ...", the expression "to eat French at the hotel ..." seems to suit you.

Offer time is from 11:00 to 21:00. In addition to the single item, a set with coffee or tea (starting from 3,533 yen on weekdays) and a set with a glass of champagne or wine (starting from 4,033 yen on weekdays) are also available, but the set with alcohol is definitely recommended. It seems that it is relatively free on weekdays, so how about a little luxurious dinner? It's a hotel lounge with many business users, so it's easy for a male person to enter.
