Divider hardly used stationery birthday trip morning in Osaka and then morning at the Imperial Hotel. Breakfast is a leisurely room service in the room. I don't have a habit of eating breakfast, but if I were to eat, I would prefer Japanese food, but it was Western food this time. I have a spirit of not refusing what comes, so of course, I will eat it. Laughing. The contents include apple juice, warm vegetables (asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, potatoes), sausages, scrambled eggs, croissants, muffins, cranberry bread, and black tea. First, quench your throat with apple juice. I'm not sure if it's 100% juice, but it feels like drinking apples as they are. By the way, you can choose from orange, grapefruit, tomato, apple, and vegetable juices. Let's start with warm vegetables with a vegetable-first approach. Asparagus is delicious. Vegetables are sweet even without any seasoning. Broccoli, cauliflower, and potatoes are also sweet and delicious. Just a little salt makes the sweetness stand out. I'm not good with raw vegetables, so I'm really grateful when they are served as warm vegetables. Also, raw vegetables have a cooling effect on the body, so it's nice that the Imperial Hotel considers not cooling the body in the morning. This may be just my own overthinking. The side dishes include ham, bacon, and sausages, and I chose sausages. I chose sausages because the sausages I ate for breakfast at the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo were incredibly delicious. The sausage I ate then tastes the same now. Juicy, elastic, with a crispy skin, not too crispy, it's ideal. For egg dishes, you can choose from sunny-side-up, scrambled, and plain omelet. Just like when I ate in Tokyo, I chose scrambled eggs. The eggs are creamy with a hint of butter. It's delicious even with salt and pepper, but since ketchup is included, let's make it red. The bread options include toast, croissants, brioche, and cranberry bread. I'm not a fan of bread because it feels dry and takes away all the moisture in my mouth, but I chose croissants, brioche, and cranberry bread with a variety of options. The croissant is not dry at all, it's crispy on the outside and moist inside with a fragrant buttery taste. It's delicious even without anything. I'm not a fan of bread, but I'm enjoying it without adding anything. Isn't it a miracle that I'm chewing on bread without anything? You are witnessing a miracle right now. Laughing. Brioche and cranberry bread are also not dry at all, they melt in the mouth. Oh, it's really delicious. Delicious bread doesn't feel dry, it actually melts. If it's bread from the Imperial Hotel, I could eat it every day. Laughing. I don't usually eat breakfast, so I'm full with this amount. It's a breakfast that fills me up to the point where I feel like the day is already over even though it's just starting. Thank you for the feast. Laughing.

I attended an event at Daimaru's overseas department. The appetizer, main course, and dessert were somewhat unsatisfying. The bread was just average. The appetizer was salmon, which looked simple. The main course was fillet steak, which was tender. The dessert was chestnut cake, which wasn't very tasty. Thank you for the meal.

French course plan at the Tenjin fireworks display! Watching the fireworks from the seat and enjoying a French full course for 36,000 yen! I thought it was expensive, but when I tried the dishes, they were worth the price! They were so delicious!!! I don't eat French cuisine often, but it's really good after all! It feels special! It was so delicious~~^_^

I attended a wedding at the Imperial Hotel! The dishes at the reception were all Instagram-worthy, especially the meat which was so tender that you could eat it even without teeth, it was amazing. Personally, my favorite was the dessert at the end. It had vanilla ice cream topped with brandy-soaked cherries, a taste for adults.

My son's school and cram school keep us from traveling often, so we decided to enjoy a travel-like experience here. The welcome sweets included financiers, my son's favorite, and chocolates before bedtime, which was a pleasant surprise. The yukata provided by the Imperial Hotel had cute hiragana designs, and my son immediately changed into it after showering. Although bathrobes were also available, he preferred the yukata. At the Imperial Floor Lounge, we enjoyed alcohol and light snacks. I didn't want to spoil my appetite for dinner, so I only had a little. We looked forward to the night view after dinner. We were able to relax with sparkling wine and enjoy the beautiful view. I heard that we could see the fireworks beautifully on the day of the Tenjin Festival. Wow, that's a great idea for someone like me who dislikes crowds and hot weather.

I have been to Tokyo a few times, but this is my first visit to Osaka. I had a dinner meeting after a certain event. The course meal was on the smaller side for a banquet, but each dish was elegant and refined, typical of the Imperial Hotel. Of course, everything was incredibly delicious. However, what impressed me the most was the raisin bread. It was not the dark, wrinkled raisins I am familiar with, but fresh, light purple raisins. It almost seemed like grapes. I couldn't help but ask for seconds. I enjoyed my meal today as well. Thank you for the feast.

When strawberry season comes around, it's time for a hotel buffet, right? This year, I went to the Imperial Hotel! I ordered the all-you-can-eat strawberry sweets buffet. On weekdays, it's 6,500 yen for adults and 3,250 yen for children (4-12 years old). On weekends and holidays, it's 6,800 yen for adults and 3,400 yen for children. I was all pumped up to indulge in sweets after a long time. I started piling up cakes. The shortcake was delicious! The cream was not too sweet and the sponge was moist. Just as expected from a hotel cake. I also stuffed myself with other strawberry sweets. As a palate cleanser, I had fresh strawberries as they are. And as a break from sweets, I had some rice dishes to settle my stomach. The soup was full of vegetables and had a rich vegetable flavor that I can't easily recreate at home. In the end, I had about 4 plates of sweets and around 2 packs of strawberries. I was completely satisfied. It was nice to be able to enjoy a meal slowly while listening to live violin music. Thank you for the meal!

Arrived at the Imperial Hotel Osaka after traveling from Tokyo at 9:10 PM. The hotel restaurant had already passed the last order time, so I decided to use room service. At first, I couldn't find the room service menu, but then I noticed a device on the desk. After navigating through the menu, I found it. The Green Salad was quite large and could serve as a full meal on its own. The variety of ingredients was impressive and it was very satisfying. The Hamburger Steak, on the other hand, seemed to have a slightly smaller portion, but it was very dense and filling. The meat flavor was strong and it paired well with the grated ponzu sauce. Although the dinner was quite expensive, I was satisfied. Thank you for the meal.

Delicious. Delicious. A parade of flavors, aromas, sweetness, and textures. The parfait starts off sweet and as you reach the bottom, it becomes refreshing. It seems well thought out. The spicy blueberry pie was also to my liking ♡ The pancake with the fragrant explosion and toffee was the best.

Everyone was eating quietly, probably feeling nervous. However, the staff noticed and lightened the mood by encouraging us to enjoy our meal, chat with friends, and not worry about being nervous affecting the taste. They explained each dish as we ate, allowing us to fully appreciate the flavors. It was a different experience from eating at regular restaurants as we learned about mass cooking techniques!

Enjoying Japanese Tea! A collaboration project between "Kyoto Fukujuen" and the Imperial Hotel <Afternoon Tea with Japanese Tea Seminar> allowed me to experience a luxurious time feeling like a lady. We received a lecture from the Japanese tea instructor at "Kyoto Fukujuen" about the types and production methods of tea, and then actually brewed Uji Gyokuro, experiencing how the flavor and color change with each steeping. Gyokuro has a heavy sweetness and truly has an exceptional elegance in taste. After the seminar, we moved on to The Park for afternoon tea. In addition to coffee and black tea, there was drip Gyokuro paired with sweets. This Gyokuro was lighter and paired well with the sweets, refreshing the palate with each sip. It was an event where I rediscovered the charm of Japanese tea. The sweets were like jewels! Although they were small and light, they were all rich in flavor and satisfying. The setting of the stacked boxes added to the theme and was lovely. The scones were quite filling, so those with a small appetite should pace themselves. There was a gentleman enjoying his time with a paperback book, so I plan to emulate that next time. The menu included items using tea leaves from "Kyoto Fukujuen" and a variety of sweets, savories, and scones.

A seminar and networking event organized by Jinanryoku Corporation was held at our hotel. Arriving by taxi from Osaka Station, we headed to the seminar venue and later moved to the networking event. As a COVID-19 precaution, we were seated at tables with acrylic dividers between them. It was a large networking event, the first in three years. The dishes served included: Lobster and scallop salad, Pumpkin cream soup, Sole fillet and saffron-flavored risotto, Grilled beef fillet with seasonal vegetables, and a selection of seasonal fruits. All the dishes, from appetizers to fruits, were delicious. The saffron-flavored risotto was especially to my liking. There were also some entertainment activities during the event, which helped us forget about the worries of COVID-19 and the intense heat. It was a fantastic networking event. Thank you to the performers from Suita for their lively performance. Currently rated 3.24 on Tabelog.

Swordfish and vegetables with balsamic-flavored consommé soup topped with tapioca, steamed sea bream with white wine and sherry vinegar butter blanc sauce, roasted beef fillet with Madeira wine sauce and warm vegetables, strawberry mousse with berries, strawberries and yogurt sauce, and hot coffee. The lighting in the hotel changes constantly depending on the event, which was quite impressive.

I made a reservation to celebrate our wedding anniversary and wanted to take it easy. The hotel is wonderful and the room is amazing. However, since it was room service, I felt disappointed when the warm dishes got cold. The setting was fun to watch and truly entertaining, typical of a top-notch hotel. The elegance of the staff caught my eye. I really enjoyed the breakfast buffet. It was impressive to see international pilots and flight attendants staying at the hotel. The restaurant was bright and sunny. Next time, I plan to just book a room and dine at the restaurant.

Please forgive the poor image quality as it was taken with an old cell phone. I tried tapioca-infused consomme soup for the first time, and I didn't know this kind of expression was possible. Interesting. The main dishes like fish and steak were not bad, but they didn't quite leave a lasting impression. I understand that it's the Imperial Hotel, so it's supposed to be amazing.

I was a little late, but the staff was kind and polite! The taste was delicious as expected (*´꒳`*) March is all about strawberries! Lunch this time, dinner next time! I've been to many hotels, but this is the only one that never disappoints! I will definitely go back next month *\(^o^)/*

Did you know that the Imperial Hotel Osaka is collaborating with the popular #PEANUTS featuring Snoopy? I finally tried the pancakes that I've been curious about✧︎*. - Doorman Snoopy Pancake - Charlie Brown Pancake Each costs 1,450 yen (drink set for 1,850 yen).

The pancakes were moist, fluffy, and dense, topped with creamy and light whipped butter and plenty of maple syrup♥ Definitely delicious‎(◍˃ ᵕ ˂◍)///// When I eat hotcakes at home, I like to pour maple syrup like a waterfall, but these had a subtle sweetness like baby castella, so you don't need to pour as much to enjoy them|-・*)///// It was my first time trying peanut butter with pancakes, and the rich and intense peanut butter had a great aroma, a hint of saltiness, and was delicious♥ The slightly salty and fragrant flavor was addictive( ´•̥̥̥ω•̥̥̥`)///// It was great that they were not only visually appealing but also delicious, and they still tasted good even when they cooled down‪ ໒꒱ It has become one of Yui's recommended foodsฅ(･¨ (●)♬︎ Each item on the menu has its own story, which can excite not only children but also adults, so be sure to check it out and enjoy♥

I was taken to the first Imperial Hotel for a lunch buffet. The seating was spaced out due to Corona, so the infection control measures were perfect. It was a buffet style, but the staff served the food for us. The most delicious dish was probably the red wine stewed cheek meat. The seasoning was exquisite. The roast beef was also delicious!

In Temmabashi, there is the "Imperial Hotel Osaka". It is a long-established hotel that opened in 1996 and is part of the same hotel brand as the "Imperial Hotel" in Tokyo. I felt a sense of closeness as it is the same age as me, so I looked at reviews before staying, and came across a phrase that caught my attention. "The 'Imperial Hotel Osaka' and the 'Osaka Imperial Hotel' are completely different!" Wait, what does that mean? After researching, I found out that there are two hotels in Osaka with the name "Imperial Hotel". One is the prestigious hotel I introduced earlier, while the other is a business hotel. The difference lies in whether "Osaka" comes before or after the name. The Imperial Hotel brand is "Imperial Hotel Osaka". Remember that "Osaka" comes after the name. Upon entering the "Imperial Hotel Osaka", you can immediately feel the difference. It is spacious, with a luxurious interior, and the staff are very polite. We arrived a little after 1 pm, but they immediately showed us to our room, showing great flexibility. It really makes a difference when you carry the brand. Below, there is a 24m high atrium and lobby lounge, where you would normally have breakfast at the buffet, but due to the pandemic, breakfast is not served here. Instead, they offer room service as a substitute. We stayed in room #1807, a river view room for three people at 48,500 yen. It is a bit small, but the bathtub has a shower area and sufficient hot water. The hot water fills up quickly. However, it is a common misunderstanding that just because it is the "Imperial Hotel", the rooms are extremely spacious or the facilities are top-notch. Since it is a hotel that was built over 20 years ago, there may be some aspects that make you go "hmm?". The room we stayed in had a slightly old-fashioned, traditional atmosphere. It is 40m², so there is plenty of space, and the furniture exudes a sense of class, but the toilet felt old, and the refrigerator was empty. Also, the lack of an espresso machine was a bit disappointing for a luxury hotel. The minibar was empty because of "the pandemic", which I honestly did not understand. However, there are several restaurants in the hotel, and being able to order them through room service is a good point. Moreover, they have top-notch restaurants like French restaurant "Le Saison", Japanese restaurant "Nadaman", and sushi restaurant "Kyubei". Being able to order Chinese and French room service simultaneously is also appealing. When I got hungry, I ordered a hamburger through room service, but they said, "We don't have bread". Despite the shortage of ingredients due to the pandemic, "no bread"... It's hard to believe for a prestigious hotel. Instead, I ordered yakisoba and steamed shrimp dumplings, which were decent in taste. I've written a lot, but it's understandable that there may be some dissatisfaction with the facilities due to the hotel's long history. The service is good, and above all, there is a sense of security. The number of hotel staff also seems to be higher than in other hotels. Especially recommended for older people who are not used to hotel life or those who want to experience the prestige of a prestigious hotel.
