カフェモカ男
I visited "Shintomicho Yuzasa," located in Chuo-ku, Tokyo. It is about a 1-2 minute walk from Shintomicho Station on the Yurakucho Line, on the first floor of a building near the station. The exterior looks like a Japanese restaurant, but the interior has a simple yet distinctly Chinese feel. There are table, counter, and private room seating options, suitable for various purposes. The owner chef, Yuzasa, who previously worked at "Ginza Chikushiro," opened this restaurant in February 2019. The dishes I tried included chilled aged caviar with shark fin, drooling chicken, steamed abalone soup, spring rolls with yellow chives, steamed seasonal fish from the Goto Islands, black vinegar sweet and sour pork with raspberry steamed buns, green onion soba, crab meat and dried scallop fried rice, custard-filled peach buns, and jasmine tea. The dishes were beautifully presented, and there were more courses than expected. Personal impressions... The drooling chicken was moist with a good texture, and the sesame-flavored sauce with a moderate level of spiciness was excellent. The black vinegar sweet and sour pork, a specialty dish, looked rich but was surprisingly light and easy to eat, with a lingering spice aftertaste. The fried rice was fluffy and generously filled with crab meat. Thank you for the delicious lunch experience.
