紅花 日本橋別館

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….

060211 192.jpgAfternoon 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!

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.

060211 180.jpgSome 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. ^^;;

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.
