ココットカレー(スリランカ風激辛チキンカレー)。
Sri Lankan super spicy chicken curry, 1500yen. Seriously…..it is HOT!!! Both my friend and I are quite used to eating spicy food but halfway through it, we were both breathing heavily and our faces were reddening and my friend kept drinking water and I started having a headache….^^;; But the first half of it was very tasty indeed….

Afternoon tea set! The sandwiches, the scones, the cakes, and of course the Assam tea are all very good. Usually afternoon tea is not about the taste but the moment of feeling like a rich madam, but here the food actually tastes nice, wow! ^^;; We ordered 3 afternoon sets and we got to choose 6 different cakes and the scones came in different flavours too!
タイのさつま揚げ。焼きビーフン。
Tod Man Pla(Fried fish pancake). Pad Thai(Fried noodle). Both superb.
肉ラーメンと黒いスープ、モツのたくさん入った、タイ東北部のラーメン。
Soup noodles with entrails, Northeast Thai style. The noodles are in slices and rolled up, very very good!
タイ東北地方のソーセージ。シーフードのカレー炒め。
Sausage Northeast Thai style. Seafood fried curry(with egg). Fantastic x 2.
ラオス風牛肉とハーブの和え物。トムヤム・ヌードル。
Beef and herb salad. Good but mainly meat and quite salty, would be great to eat with rice though. Tom Yam Noodle.
Some super sweet coconut dessert, forgot the name. 4 girls shared all the food, with 2 drinks each, only 2000yen per person!! So cheap!! Though the location of the restaurant is not so convenient. The food were all very mild and not spicy. Wonder if it is Northeastern style or just toned down for Japanese customers. And the very sweet and friendly madam happened to have lost her voice that day but we kept asking her this and that. ^^;;
Thani Kitchen
Sweden cuisine! But the Framboise alcohol drink turned out to be from Belgium! ^^;; The assorted marinated fish appetizer was very very good, salty and sour and somehow makes you feel “Ah~~very Scandinavian” although I have never been there before. ^^;;
Chicken salad.
Beef tomato stew. Hmm?? Hmm?? Can’t tell the difference from Japanese “western food”. ^^;; Oh but the pasta-thing on the side was very chewy so nice~~! Definitely the highlight of this meal for me. Potato gratin was quite good too.
Sugar-coated chocolate mousse. Very very sweet, couldn’t finish even it was so small.

海の幸（才巻海老・トコブシ・ホタテ・ウニ・牡蠣）のコンソメゼリーがけ、人参のムースと共に、２２００円。
Seafood including prawn, shellfish, scallop, sea urchin and oysters, with consomme jelly and carrot mousse. So good! The scallop is super sweet.
ランド産フォワグラのポワレ、トリュフ風味、下仁田ネギのエチュベ添え、２２００円。
蝦夷鹿ロース肉のポワレ、黒コショウ風味、３４００円。
Pan-fried foie gras, with truffle and spring onion. Foie gras very rich-tasting and cooked just right.
“Ezo” venison, black pepper sauce. I always get venison whenever it is available somehow, even though the portion is always so much smaller than say pork or beef, which my friend got and couldn’t finish cos they were too big portion! ^^; But the venison here is very soft, but fried crispy outside.
紫イモのモンブラン 紅茶のアイスクリーム添え、１２００円。
洋梨のジュレとムースのパルフェ仕立て 牛乳のソルベと御一緒に、１０００円。
I had the taro Mont Blanc, with tea ice-cream. My friend had pear jelly and pear mousse parfait with milk sorbet. Both are very good.
Overall very good, the waitor and the waitress were super friendly, which really makes a difference. The only weak point is the bread, which is a bit hard and tasteless. So I ended up not eating much bread and didn’t feel as full as I should have. One glass of wine and a coffee, it came up to 11000yen, quite luxurious. ^^;; Oh the restaurant is owned by Rakuten’s boss’ wife, and by chance the boss and his wife and their kid were all there when we went. I didn’t know them of course but my friend got quite excited. ^^;;
Restaurant hAru
刺身御膳。Sashimi lunch set, 1890yen. The place is very big and the food tastes a bit mass production - the tempura was cold!!
