The summer afternoon tea, which is served during the summer at the lobby lounge "The Palace Lounge" on the first floor of the hotel, offers an 11-item menu in the original three-tiered structure. Comes with over 20 types of tea and 5 types of coffee selection "all-you-can-drink".
Does the fact that it is in a heavy box mean that the food has a Japanese taste? I thought that the hamburger was sitting next to the sushi with a plain face, and the scones were sitting together with Neri-kiri, which is quite unique.
So, below, I will introduce the whole menu that you are interested in! Please also refer to the recommended drinks you want to drink together.
● "Upper stage" of meal system
The lineup includes cold edamame soup, quiche, eel and cucumber Temari sushi, and mini hamburgers.
The edamame soup is cool and cool, and has a mellow sweetness that moisturizes the mouth. Moderate saltiness is also effective, and it is rich but not dull.
The quiche is bite-sized, but it has a full-fledged finish with edamame, Japanese mustard spinach, onions, bacon, and Gruyere cheese. While you can feel the taste of each ingredient, the taste of bacon stands out and appeals to the taste.
The mini hamburger is a small but thick patty layered with cheese, tomatoes and pickles and sandwiched in fragrant buns. Patty has a texture that is tightly packed with meat, and even though it looks so cute, when you eat it, it fills your mouth with the deliciousness of meat. There is a lot of bulk, so it's surprisingly delicious. This is the best recommendation of the editorial department!
Since the menu is a meal system, it seems that classical tea such as mocarbarier and English breakfast, Japanese tea, Chinese tea, etc. are suitable.
● Full of sweets "middle stage"
It contains pineapple scones, clotted cream and strawberry jam, macaroons, mango eclairs, and Japanese sweets in the shape of loquat.
Although the scones are baked quickly, they have a moist texture when chewed. The flesh of pineapple, which is chopped into small pieces, is studded inside, and the chewy texture that you sometimes feel is a nice accent. If you like, add clotted cream or strawberry jam and spread it to enjoy the change in taste.
Macaroons are offered in one of two flavors, chocolate and lemon. The dough is crisp and moist, and it doesn't cling to your teeth. It is a good impression that the filling inside is not too sweet.
Mango Eclair is a luxurious dish with cream in a crispy and crunchy dough. It's a petit size that you can finish eating with just a lid, but the presence of rich mango will be behind for a while.
The sweets menu is packed in this stage, so it goes well with coffee as well as tea (not to mention). It's not too sweet overall, so it goes well with aroma teas such as the cacao scent "Irish malt" and the hibiscus scent "Holsteiner Gruze", refreshing herbal teas, and even coffee with milk such as latte. I will.
● Refreshing mouth with fruit "lower tier"
It contains peach mousse and lychee jelly, seasonal fruits (strawberry, kiwi, pineapple), nata de coco, cake orange, and two original chocolates (olanger, white chocolate).
Cake Orange is a pound cake with plenty of orange peel. When you put it in your mouth, the refreshing citrus scent spreads softly.
Since the menu is lined with fruits, it is recommended to combine it with drinks that are not too fragrant, such as classical tea with no habit, so as not to erase the flavor of the fruits. Or, you can use coffee that is as rich as chocolate or "Yuzu Matcha", which has a pleasant astringency and bitterness, to cleanse the sweetened mouth at the end.
――The above is the whole picture of summer afternoon tea. I'm glad that you can enjoy various taste combinations while freely drinking tea and coffee with your meal. While moving your hands and mouth alternately, the flowers will bloom for hours chatting!
Even though it is "afternoon tea", it has a volume that makes you feel full by the time you finish eating it, so it is recommended that you finish your stomach with the intention of having lunch rather than an afternoon snack.
