Hot chocolate afternoon tea. Tiffany"Chocolat Chaud" by Natsuko Shoji. It was a wonderful afternoon tea that you could enjoy with your eyes, aroma, and taste. The chocolat chaud was a rich, fragrant chocolate drink. It was also delicious to dip strawberries into it and eat them.

The “framboise mousse tart” is said to be an easy-to-eat dessert with plenty of volume and a light texture.
The tartness of the framboise and strawberries comes through nicely, while the sweetness stays modest and the finish is clean. It also pairs well with iced coffee.

I spent a blissful tea time at O Baccanal, a place that makes you forget the bustle of Ginza. This time, I had the "ichigo no taruto (strawberry tart)," topped luxuriously with rows of bright red strawberries. The balance of the crisp tart crust, sweet and tangy strawberries, and refined custard was just right, and every bite brought a little more happiness.

Right in the middle of Ginza. Climb the stairs of an old building, and you’ll find an antique filled, calming space, tasty and cute lemon cake, and freshly ground coffee. It’s the kind of place you want to visit when you want to relax, read at your own pace, or spend some quiet time alone without thinking about anything.

I ordered the Hamburger Steak Omurice with salad. The Hamburger Steak was very meaty, with the satisfying bite of a steak, and it was really delicious. The Omurice came with a sauce with a nice touch of red wine, giving it a more grown-up flavor. The egg was slightly firm, but still soft and airy, and very tasty.

The weather was nice, so I chose a breezy terrace seat outside. With little traffic and a view of the greenery of Hibiya Park, the atmosphere was quite nice. It is set a little farther back, so it was also nice that no direct sunlight came in. I had the fresh pressed waguri (Japanese chestnut) Mont Blanc, crushed cookie cheesecake, and an iced coffee, and both cakes were delicious, and the iced coffee was very good too.

We had a barbecue around lunchtime. The course included beef, pork, seafood, and more, and it was more than enough and quite satisfying. We came in from the greater Kanto area, but the view over Ginza made it feel like a bit of sightseeing. Under the clear blue sky, everyone felt great and enjoyed it.

It was a hot day with nice weather, but the parasols blocked the direct sunlight and made it very comfortable. The drinks and variety of meat were even more stylish than last year, so I’d like to visit again this year.

・The rich lobster bisque style sauce is packed with shrimp flavor. You can choose between dried pasta and fresh pasta, and I went with the fresh pasta. It was delicious with a nice chewy texture! The sauce really clings to the pasta. Just like the name suggests, it is full of shrimp flavor and feels satisfying overall.

I went with the keema curry that day. After paying at the register, I waited at the counter, and the food was brought over on a tray. It came with a salad, with fukujinzuke (pickled relish) and rakkyou (pickled shallots) on a separate plate. The curry may look like there is not much of it, but it had a solid kick. There was no chance of ending up with leftover rice. I felt it paired especially well with the rakkyou.

I visited for lunch on a weekday. The panino was really good last time, but this time I chose from the ready-made items in the display case. A banana muffin and a honey doughnut. They warmed up the muffin, so it was nice and hot, soft, and very tasty. The doughnut was on the larger side and had a dense, substantial feel that made it very satisfying.

For the iced mocaccino, the steamed milk was so soft and smooth that they recommended drinking it directly rather than through a straw. It also satisfied my craving for something sweet, and the chocolate flavor was not weak at all, so it was very good.
