For lunch, you can choose between a meat course and a fish course. This time, I chose the fish course. The meal was delicious and made me feel the seasonality of the ingredients. The view of the garden from the café was also lovely, making it a great place to change your mood on a weekend afternoon.

I had been wanting to visit this place after being recommended by a friend, and I finally had the chance to do so. The lunch, enjoyed while looking out at the large garden through the huge window, was exceptional and truly felt like a special experience. The taste of the lunch was top-notch, with the cold tomato soup and vegetable salad standing out due to the focus on vegetables in the restaurant. The main dish was average, but the dessert was delicious, making the overall lunch very satisfying for the price. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

When I take a walk around the Platinum area, I sometimes stop by here. The garden is wonderful, especially on sunny days, it's a lovely location. The strawberry shortcake has a refined sweetness, and the sponge cake is fluffy and makes you happy in one bite. My companion had the souffle cheesecake, which was not too sweet but rather subtle. The cheese aroma and blueberries go well together. The Earl Grey ice cream also had a good aroma and was delicious. There were many families with children and people having meals, making it a very welcoming cafe.

Today, my wife and I were able to take a day off, so we went to the Slash Cafe at Happo-en. The lunch course with a view of the beautiful garden was all delicious. From the chilled corn soup and sweet tomato with basil caprese appetizers to the pan-fried cod, roast beef, and dessert, everything was excellent. Thank you for the meal, we will definitely come back again.

The terrace seating at Thrush Cafe within the grounds of Hachioji-en offered a lovely view of the garden and cherry blossoms in full bloom. I enjoyed a relaxing flower-viewing dinner with delicious dishes made from seasonal vegetables. Thank you for the meal! Another highlight was the excitement of watching airplanes pass directly overhead ✈️

Located in Shirokanedai, Happo-en is a café where you can enjoy meals and tea while overlooking a vast Japanese garden and experiencing the changing seasons. It is just a 2-minute walk from Shirokanedai Station Exit 2. The café is situated in the main building, to the left of the lobby on the 1st floor, just a minute away from the entrance to Happo-en. The open layout with no walls allows for a clear view of the Japanese garden in front, making it inviting for visitors. During my visit at lunchtime, the café was spacious with plenty of seats, and it was quite crowded due to the weekend. The window seats facing the garden were popular, and the terrace seats would be ideal in good weather. Reservations are accepted. The service was polite, friendly, and attentive. The menu offers a wide variety of options, with prices on the higher side but reflecting quality. You can choose from course meals to à la carte items, suitable for various dining or tea purposes (prices include tax, with a 10% service charge). I ordered the following: - Coffee (1,000 yen): A coffee supervised by Mikafet. It had a bitterness with mild acidity and a light aftertaste. After enjoying the coffee, I took a stroll in the garden. Although there was still little greenery, the early blooming cherry blossoms were charming. It is a lovely garden that you would want to visit in each season. Remember this place in Shirokanedai for a leisurely meal or tea experience.

At Hachigoyen Slash Cafe, you can enjoy a view of the approximately 10,000 square meter garden while sipping on various drinks such as high tea champagne Moet & Chandon and unique "blue cocktails" that match the blue-tinted garden. With over 20 options available for free flow, the food and afternoon tea are delicately crafted and delicious, and the garden transforms into a magical setting day and night. The staff's hospitality is also top-notch, making it highly recommended. ■Today's menu Limited to Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, the "Shirogane Aperitif Night" offers a luxurious plan with a champagne free flow for 8,500 yen including tax. Enjoy 28 drink options including Moet & Chandon and signature cocktails like the Blue Craft Ginger Hot and daily specials. The food menu includes items like winter vegetable bagna cauda sauce, French regional dish cassoulet with grass-fed pork, and various desserts. Please note that the menu is subject to change based on availability.

The garden is very beautiful, and I finally visited the "Slash Cafe" in Yofukuen that I had been curious about. With over 400 years of history, stepping into Yofukuen is like entering a different world, with a calm and charming atmosphere. I took a walk in the garden, which is beautifully landscaped with varying elevations, making for an elegant experience. An apéritif is a French term for a pre-dinner drink that stimulates the appetite. It is a time to toast and enjoy light snacks while chatting with loved ones before the main dinner (which in France is around 8-9pm), transitioning from work to private time. The Apéritif Night allows you to enjoy this French lifestyle! I had planned to enjoy it on the terrace while looking at the garden, but it was too cold in December, so I opted for indoor seating. Various snacks, pasta, roast beef, and a selection of champagne and wine are available, along with dessert. I had a satisfying time at the indoor table, with attentive and courteous service from the staff.

The atmosphere of the restaurant was lively and crowded. Upon arrival, the male to female ratio was 4:6. We were able to see the garden illuminated a little further ahead. It was a night of last year's illumination x afternoon tea. It was more of a high tea concept than an afternoon tea, and we enjoyed a meal as well. The highlight was the adult high tea where you could also enjoy free-flowing Moet. The elegant atmosphere of Hachiyoen was impressive. Although my visit for the second installment has ended, the third installment is currently ongoing. A total of 9 dishes are served during the high tea. Enjoy a slightly adult atmosphere for a night of high tea. Location: 1-1-1 Shirokanedai, Minato-ku, Tokyo, Hachiyoen Main Building 1F, 1 minute walk from Shirokanedai Station Exit 2 on the Toei Mita Line and Tokyo Metro Namboku Line. #Shirokanedai #ShirokanedaiGourmet #Hachiyoen #AfternoonTea #HighTea #MoetChandon #FreeFlow #TokyoGourmet #TokyoGourmetReport #flukeOfficialAmbassador #NationalGourmetGuide #AfternoonTeaayl #Minato-kuayl #Tokyoayl

Cake set for 1500 yen, you can choose one cake and either coffee or Earl Grey tea. The apple pie is generously sized but not too sweet, easy to eat. I visited with my 2-year-old child, and was worried if it was out of place in this fancy and stylish cafe, but they kindly provided a child's chair and warmly accommodated us. There were a few other small children around us as well.

I found a super great deal and went to Thrush cafe, where you can overlook a 10,000 square meter Japanese garden with a history of about 400 years at Happonen. The cafe is so green that you forget you're in the city, with high ceilings and an open atmosphere. With a "Farm to Table" concept, they use naturally grown vegetables from contracted farmers, delivered fresh on the day. The cuisine brings out the natural deliciousness of the ingredients to the fullest, with a focus on reducing food waste and promoting the charm of local areas using underutilized crops, actively engaging in SDGs. The special plan I tried this time was the "SHIROKANE APERITIF NIGHT," where you can enjoy 28 types of drinks including Moet & Chandon Imperial Champagne, hotel original Mojitos, seasonal original cocktails, and more. The Thrush cafe's special appetizers include 5 types of aperitifs, 4 kinds of pickled farm vegetables, seafood ceviche, white fish mousse fritters, low-temperature cooked domestic chicken breast, and naturally grown fried potatoes. The fried potatoes were so delicious that I could eat as many as I wanted. The special salad, made with whole grilled romaine lettuce and a spicy aurora sauce with garlic and cumin, was irresistible with the sweetness of the vegetables. The 100% beef hamburger made from experienced cows was juicy and delicious, with a grilled aroma and meaty flavor. The buns were also homemade, with a crispy brioche-like texture that made me want to eat them alone. I also ordered the famous apple pie here, which retained the crispy texture of the apples and had a spicy touch of cinnamon. The dessert was completed with a crispy pie crust made with rare Oshima butter and refreshing Oshima milk ice cream. The free-flow plan, including popular dishes, costs 7,260 yen including tax. Every dish goes perfectly with champagne, making it a plan that alcohol lovers will love!

I visited the casual Italian restaurant "Slash Cafe" located within Yofukuen, just a 1-minute walk from Shirokanedai Station. Known for its "Farm to Table" concept, the restaurant uses fresh vegetables sent from the farm each day in their dishes. The highlight this time was the limited-time High Tea plan called "Shirokan Aperitif Night" (reservation required). For 7,260 yen (tax and service charge included), you can enjoy free-flowing Moet & Chandon and 28 types of original cocktails. The set also includes a hearty Echizen beef 100% cheddar cheeseburger and dessert. The charred romaine lettuce Cobb salad was delicious as well. The event is only held on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays until October 2nd, so hurry!

A new high tea plan called "Shirogane Aperitif Night" has started at the 1st floor restaurant of Hachijo-en. The calm space reminiscent of a hotel lounge will help you relax after work. The free-flow includes 28 drinks such as Moët & Chandon Impérial and original cocktails, perfect for a luxurious night in Shirogane! The appetizers include bite-sized Seviche Marinade made with seasonal vegetables. The tangy seasoning will stimulate your appetite. The main course is an original burger with a generous volume like a gourmet burger! You will definitely be satisfied with the meaty patty that doesn't seem like lean beef! This menu is only available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays until October 2nd, so make your reservation early. ■Menu -Scallop Fritters with Tartar Sauce -Seviche of Shrimp and Octopus -Marinated Vegetables -Steamed Chicken -Organic Fried Potatoes -Seared Cobb Salad -100% Lean Beef Hamburger -Raspberry Sorbet -Free-flow Thank you for the feast.

I used to live nearby and liked the atmosphere, so I occasionally visited the café. It had been a while since my last visit, and this time I wanted to have a hamburger for lunch, but it turns out they only offer it on weekends, which was a bit disappointing. The course menu and a la carte options only had Genovese pasta, with the only other choice being curry. I opted for the 2500 yen course with sparkling wine. I enjoyed the way the light streamed in and the overall ambiance, so I would like to visit again for tea.

Apple Pie with Oshima Milk Ice Cream The pie crust is moist and not too crispy, more like a single layer of moist crust. It's filled with plenty of crispy apples, almost like it's more of an apple pie than an apple pie! The cinnamon is strong and the sweetness is mild, making it a mature apple pie. There were many mature ladies enjoying it.

◎Time: Saturday 11:45am, no waiting◎Order: Mixed grain rice and beef curry for 1800 yen, Fresh tomato and water spinach oil spaghetti, Anchovy butter breadcrumbs, Oshima's bounty Croissant from NIPPON for 300 yen◎Access: 3 minutes walk from Shirokanedai Station◎Customer Base: Couples, families, groups◎Payment: Suica, PayPay, credit cards accepted◎Note: The curry was surprisingly delicious with abundant vegetables and beef, very satisfying. The spaghetti was also good. The Croissant was moist and buttery.

I was invited by a friend to visit Hachijoen after a long time. We had lunch at the Slash Cafe. We were seated by the window, and even though we were indoors, we could see the fresh greenery outside, which was very refreshing! 1. Soup - Fresh Onion Soup 2. Appetizer - Grilled Broccoli and Sakura Shrimp with Homemade Harissa and Soy Meat 3. Meat Dish 4. Dessert - Hyuganatsu Montelimar with Honey Gelato - Coffee My friend also celebrated my recent childbirth. The staff was very kind and even played with the baby. After eating, we took a stroll in the garden. It was a moment where we could forget that we were in the city.

Slash Cafe (Shirokanedai) is a restaurant located within one of the four major wedding venues, Happon-en. This time, I visited to try the limited-time Happon-en homemade burgers during the Golden Week period (5/2-5/10)!!▽---------------------▽ Thrush Cafe Tabelog rating: 3.57 (as of 2022/05/04) 🚶‍♂️1-minute walk from Shirokanedai Station Lunch budget: ¥2,000-¥4,000 per person Instagram: @thrush_cafe * Burgers are available from 14:30 onwards △---------------------△ I made a reservation and visited on a holiday. Even in the early afternoon, the restaurant was full, so I recommend making a reservation before going. 【Order】 ▷100% Domestic Beef Thick Patty and Homemade Buns Burger ¥2,200 (tax included, service charge not included) ▷Craft Cola ¥500 【Food Details】 ▷Burger A thick patty made from 100% domestic cows that have given birth. It is coarsely ground, giving it a meaty texture almost like steak! The buns are homemade and baked at the Happon-en bakery. They have a sweetness that pairs well with the meat! ▷Salad A Cobb salad served with the burger. It contains shrimp and avocado, and when eaten alternately with the burger, the flavors complement each other even more. The aurora sauce is incredibly delicious!! ▷Craft Cola Craft cola made from naturally grown herbs and spices. It has a refreshing and less overpowering taste compared to commercial cola. I really love this drink!! 【Overall】 Happon-en is a leading wedding venue in Japan. To have such a wonderful restaurant within it was a pleasant surprise! The taste, atmosphere, and service were all top-notch. After the meal, taking a stroll in the Japanese garden was a perfect way to relax on a holiday. I was completely satisfied! Thank you for the delicious meal. 【Side Note】 About domestic cows that have given birth. Embarrassingly, I had never eaten beef from cows that have given birth before trying this burger. Generally, cows that have given birth multiple times are said to have lower quality meat, and these cows are called "spent cows." It's sad to think about disrespecting cows that have worked hard to give birth. However, domestic cows that have given birth have a unique deliciousness! Their meat is meatier and more flavorful than marbled meat, making it perfect for burgers. Happon-en has recognized this and it's wonderful. It's great that they consider sustainability along with taste!

Press the save button in the upper right to easily refer back to it anytime♪---------- This cafe is located within Happo-en. It has received high ratings on review sites, and I visited it promptly after seeing the GW limited edition hamburger promotion. It is a valuable cafe that is also focusing on the current SDGs trend!! Happo-en is a 1-minute walk from Shirokanedai. Passing through its gate, there is a garden that extends about 200-300 meters⭐️ There are few places in Tokyo surrounded by so much greenery, so I was delighted by this rich and extraordinary experience of entering from the luxurious lobby. Upon entering the cafe, we were greeted very politely. The spacious seating and the view of the garden from the window make it a very comfortable place to be. The main hamburger uses meat from cows that have finished giving birth, known as "reproductive cows". The meat is very juicy and goes well with the buns and vegetables, making it disappear in no time. The Pezan Herb Garden, which is used for the tea, is a wonderful herb garden that aims to "create a world without discrimination". The taste and aroma are also excellent! Spending a leisurely time while overlooking the beautiful Japanese garden on the first day of GW was just perfect☺️☺️
