A bottle of beer was 700 yen, a little lukewarm.
The menu mainly consisted of shabu-shabu served in a small pot and steamed dishes in a bamboo steamer.
Since I was with a small child, I avoided the small pot dishes that use cayenne pepper and instead ordered dim sum and steamed dishes.
Steamed scallops, the scallops were small. They were about half the size of what the menu photo made them look like.
The menu photo made it look like the bamboo steamer was full of scallops, but the scallops that actually came out were maybe bigger than baby scallops? Maybe they shrink when steamed, but the difference in appearance was surprising.
The bamboo steamer dishes were unseasoned, but there was a wide variety of condiments and sauces on the buffet table that you could choose from to season your food.
The dim sum seemed to be mostly frozen. The xiaolongbao and spring rolls were also frozen.
I also ordered fried rice, and it tasted somehow familiar.
To my surprise, even the fried rice was frozen. Dim sum is difficult to make, so I thought freezing it would be unavoidable, but I was surprised to see that even fried rice was frozen.
I suspect there are no experienced chefs like itamae in the kitchen.
I can't imagine that a chef would casually add frozen fried rice to the menu.
Other guests were having the small hotpot set meal, which looked reasonably tasty, but the small hotpot itself seems like it would taste decent if the ingredients were of a decent quality.
The plain steamed dishes, the wide variety of sauces, and the frozen dim sum all seemed designed to make the menu easy to operate, even for people without extensive cooking experience.
The prices were reasonable for a hotel restaurant, but the food was on par with that of a family restaurant. If you expect it to be a hotel restaurant, you may be disappointed.
The breakfast was reasonably priced, had a wide variety, the miso soup was delicious, and the service was good, so I recommend eating there for breakfast.
