After finishing some errands in Ginza and Nihonbashi, I visited the Shiseido Parlour Nihonbashi store inside Nihonbashi Takashimaya. It had been so long since I last visited Shiseido Parlour, I can't remember exactly how many years it has been. During the Golden Week holiday, the celebrities are likely traveling abroad, while the Ginza area is filled with inbound tourists, giving a sense of returning to pre-COVID times. "Western cuisine" is a kind of "fusion cuisine," and the evolution of that can be seen in the "Shin-Edo Western Cuisine" recently offered at Hotel New Otani Tokyo's "Bella Vista." While not as expensive as high-end French cuisine, traditional Western cuisine can still be quite pricey. The Nihonbashi store of Shiseido Parlour is relatively affordable compared to its flagship store in Ginza. The specialty dishes loved by various cultural figures at this store include Omelette Rice, Hayashi Rice, and Meat Croquette, among others. As for original dishes at the Nihonbashi store, they offer special set menus such as Western-style set meals (3960 yen) and Nihonbashi Plate (3520 yen). During this season, desserts made with lemon are quite interesting. After some contemplation, I chose the Shrimp and Scallop Fry with Tartar Sauce, served with salad and bread or rice (2580 yen). I wanted to taste the quality of the shrimp and scallops in this very Showa-era "department store Western cuisine." The dish consisted of 3 shrimp, 2 small shrimp, and 2 scallops, with high-quality shrimp and a generous portion of salad. The tartar sauce was elegant and had a mild acidity, which I enhanced with a bit of lemon. I didn't opt for coffee and dessert, so I ordered an additional soup. The soup options were Consommé Soup or Soup of the Day, and I chose the Corn Potage. It was lighter in flavor compared to the double consommé soups at places like Tokyo Kaikan or Hotel New Otani Tokyo. My partner chose the Meat Croquette in Shiseido Parlour style, and from the taste I had, both the bechamel sauce inside the croquette and the tomato sauce served with it were of high quality. Both dishes, soup with fried items, provided a satisfying fullness beyond their appearances. It may be classical, but just like in Japanese cuisine, I am grateful for the consciousness and skill to fulfill what has been established. Amidst many half-hearted attempts recently, this seems to be a good value for money in Western cuisine. Surprisingly, there were quite a few young customers who seemed to have been taught about tradition by their parents. Thank you for the meal!

I visited Shiseido Parlour Nihonbashi on a Saturday around 5 pm and was able to enter without waiting as there were fewer customers due to a fireworks festival in Adachi, Tokyo. Today, I tried the limited-time Miyazaki-grown fully ripe mango special parfait and the Yamanashi-grown blueberry special parfait. I had the mango parfait, which was incredibly sweet and juicy, perfect for this season. It was so delicious that I could eat it every day. My companion also enjoyed the blueberry parfait.

Tokyo, Nihonbashi, Shiseido Parlor Special parfait with ripe mango from Miyazaki prefecture ¥3000 It seems like the menu is slightly different?? I ordered the mango parfait on a hot day, but it didn't have mango on top. The interior of the store was cool and the mango was sweet and delicious!

Today I ordered the Nihonbashi store original Western-style set meal at Shiseido Parlour Nihonbashi. My companion ordered the Meat Croquette July limited edition Nihonbashi store exclusive original special menu, which includes roasted sea bream from Wakayama prefecture and tomato risotto with shrimp and scallops. The Western-style set meal includes soup, quiche, prosciutto, smoked salmon potato salad, ratatouille, snow crab and scallop croquette, small shrimp fry salad, steak bowl, dessert, and iced coffee. Each dish is delicious, and the lunch comes with soup and dessert, making it a satisfying meal.

The atmosphere of the staff was very poor and the service felt below par. It was surprising how they could offer this at such a price. The taste was not bad, but for this price, it felt like a waste. It's a shame that such a well-known restaurant has poor operations. I don't think I can go there again. It's embarrassing that they have Wi-Fi and accept PayPay. Non-smoking.

On Saturday, I went solo for a parfait adventure. The main store in Ginza seemed a bit intimidating for me, so I opted for the location in Nihonbashi Takashimaya. I arrived at 1:40 PM and saw chairs lined up outside the shop, with people sitting at intervals. It seemed you had to write your name on a board and wait. I tried to write my name but noticed a note saying dessert-only service was available from 2:00 PM. I had to wait until then, so I sat on a chair and waited. At 2:00 PM, I wrote my name in hiragana and chose a counter seat. The shop had a spacious layout with a long table in the back, divided into sections for three people each. I got excited reading the delightful description of the "Sato Nishiki" cherry parfait I ordered. It had five cherries on top, and I savored the sweet and sour taste of the cherries. The parfait also had yogurt ice cream, chocolate, mint, whipped cream, milk ice cream, Griotte sauce, brulee, and Griotte jelly. I was intrigued by the term "Griotte" and learned it meant cherry in French. Each element of the parfait was delicious, especially the brulee and the whole cherry at the bottom of the jelly. The parfait glass was designed to make it easy to reach the bottom with a spoon. Overall, the experience was delightful, and I would definitely visit this place again.

After a long time, I went to Shiseido Parlour to have their omurice, and it was in the restaurant area of Nihonbashi Takashimaya! (laughs) A little trip down memory lane.. a long time ago.. there was a Shiseido Parlour in Sapporo, inside a commercial facility called Marsa. Marsa is now known as "Le Trois." My wife and I went there a few times. Oh! I also went to the store in Ginza once. It's a nostalgic memory (^^;) I ordered the omurice as planned, which cost 2,460 yen! (@_@) That's Tokyo prices for you~ After eating, I also ordered a coffee for 570 yen. It was brought to me after about 10 minutes. So, let's dig in~ It looks beautifully done, almost too pretty to eat (both in terms of money.. laughs). Opening it up, the egg is thick, almost like.. how many eggs did they use? It's a fluffy egg. The taste is a tomato sauce with a hint of butter, with a slight tanginess. It's a really delicious omurice. The coffee was unexpectedly foamy. The slight burnt smell.. does it match this place? It's a bit iffy (laughs). Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoyed my long-awaited visit to Shiseido Parlour. It was a delicious meal! If I have the chance, I'll definitely visit again!

Visited on a Sunday night. No wait, entered the store after shopping with family, madam, and uncle... older age group. Customer service and cleanliness were not a problem. Very stable! The dishes had a good flavor and looked beautiful. The dessert was also delicious. Among casual dining options, this place might be at the top. Will definitely go again. Thank you for the meal!

I tried the classic high-end omurice and it was delicious! The taste was truly amazing, just as you would expect from a high-end dish. The pumpkin soup was also delicious. I thought it might take a while, but the omurice came out quickly, which was great! I might try visiting the Ginza main store next time.

I went to Shiseido Parlour Nihonbashi for tea time. I had the caramel and pear cake set. The parfait in the photo was ordered by my companion. The caramel had just the right amount of sweetness and the addition of pear made it mild. The cream added an exquisite touch to the taste. It was a great tea time experience.

The restaurant opens at 11:00 for lunch, but the waiting list starts before that, so arriving at 11:00 may not be enough to get a table for the first round. There are plenty of single seats available at the large table, so if you don't mind sharing a table with others, arriving early might help you get a seat. The overall clientele is upper-class, creating a calm atmosphere for dining. The service is smart and polite. The omelette rice is consistently good in quality.

At the Shiseido Parlour on the 8th floor of Nihonbashi Takashimaya, I had the Amaou parfait with plenty of large Amaou strawberries. It was a delight for strawberry lovers, with Amaou strawberries, strawberry ice cream, vanilla ice cream, strawberry compote, and whipped cream all combining to enhance the natural flavors of the strawberries. The appearance may be ordinary, but the taste was incredibly delicious (and surprisingly affordable at ¥2300), so I was very satisfied. Unlike the Ginza branch, the Nihonbashi Takashimaya branch has a casual atmosphere that makes it easy for solo diners to visit (there was actually a solo diner there), so popping in alone is also an option.

I received a Valentine's parfait set with citrus and chocolate pairing drink (black tea). The parfait consisted of layers of chocolate, fruit tart (citrus flavor), chocolate cream, chocolate ice cream, yuzu sherbet, berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries), ganache, chocolate cake, raspberries, vanilla ice cream, chocolate cream, bergamot jelly, and strawberry sauce. The refreshing citrus aroma and the acidity of the berries paired well with the chocolate, making it delicious. The black tea was served in a beautiful cup with a camellia flower mark and tasted good as well. Thank you for the meal.

Valentine Special Parfait, thank you for the coffee♪ This shop is located on the 8th floor of Nihonbashi Takashimaya, directly connected from Nihonbashi Station on the Tokyo Metro. I visited around 6 pm on a weekday. I had the Valentine Special Parfait, which included fruit tart, heart-shaped chocolate, chocolate ice cream, yuzu sherbet, ganache, chocolate cake, framboise, vanilla ice cream, chocolate cream, bergamot jelly, mixed berries, strawberry sauce.

Today was the last day of work before the holidays. I decided to take the afternoon off. I was looking forward to treating myself to a luxurious omurice for lunch. However, I was invited to lunch by someone from work, and they really wanted to go to a particular restaurant. I agreed and we went there. The omurice looked amazing! It wasn't piping hot, but the egg was thick and there was plenty of butter. It was delicious and satisfying! I couldn't resist ordering a parfait for dessert. It was my first time trying their parfait, and it was elegant and delicious, with great ice cream and cream. And to top it off, my meal was treated by my colleague, making it even more enjoyable. I will work hard again from January. Thank you for the meal!

After finishing shopping at Ginza Takashimaya, I decided to have a meal at a restaurant that exuded a special aura on the restaurant floor - Shiseido Parlour. It was a place I had always wanted to visit, and as expected, the elegant ladies dining there added to the iconic atmosphere. The menu featured classic dishes such as omurice, beef stew, croquettes, and macaroni gratin, but the prices were as expected, making it not the best choice for a quick lunch. After some hesitation, I decided to try the shrimp fry. The meal started with a smooth and flavorful pumpkin potage soup with a touch of cream. The main dish consisted of three elegantly sized shrimp fries and a side of small shrimp with tartar sauce. The French dressing on the side salad was delicious, a classic touch in Western-style restaurants. The shrimp fry had a crispy coating and was served with tartar sauce, evoking a sense of nostalgia. The staff appeared at the perfect moments, without being intrusive, and the presence of older customers made sense. Overall, it was a comforting lunch experience at this longstanding establishment. However, I was a bit shocked by the bill, but I thought it was worth it and secretly planned to visit again. Thank you for the meal.

I went to a restaurant that I found on Gurunavi, which I could use my Shiseido points at. I ordered an omelette rice plate and a parfait, spending almost 10,000 yen for two people. However, when it came time to pay, they said they only accepted cash. I was disappointed because Gurunavi had mentioned that they accepted electronic payments. Despite this, the food was delicious so I didn't mind too much. When I went to write a review later, I found out that the restaurant now only accepts cash according to Gurunavi. The restaurant was quite popular, and we were only allowed to stay for a limited time. The shrimp fry was especially tasty. Thank you for the meal.

Today, I went to Shiseido Parlour at the Nihonbashi Takashimaya store. I ordered the sautéed veal loin with potato galette and eggplant and apple chutney. It was my first time trying the combination of mushroom sauce, eggplant, and apple chutney with veal, and it was delicious. My companion had the classic meat croquette, which was crispy and tasty with fried parsley.

This time, I came to Tokyo not for my husband, but for my own personal reasons~❤(・∀・) Even though the place I needed to go to was Chigasaki, not Tokyo~ I still wanted to visit Tokyo~(；´∀｀) So, for dinner, I have a meeting with my husband at Takashimaya. He wanted to go to a Western-style restaurant, but I pulled his hand and took him to Shiseido Parlour on the 8th floor~ They had a dish called "Nihonbashi Plate" which is perfect for me, as I always have a hard time choosing from the menu. Let's also order the seasonal chestnut parfait, it looks delicious~(・∀・) And I'm a bit thirsty, so let's get some beer too...（；^ω^） The shrimp fry, chicken rice, croquette, and hamburger may be ordinary dishes, but when prepared by a skilled chef with good ingredients, the taste is truly exceptional~❤ After finishing the meal, while I start on the chestnut parfait, my husband looks at me and says, "I will never understand a woman's second stomach"…(；・∀・)

I also like the sophisticated atmosphere of the Ginza main store, but I am happy that I can easily use this place with children and enjoy delicious Western food menus. They have kids' chairs and kids' menus, and they were able to accommodate my child's request for a hamburger without cheese and tartar sauce on the side. The seasonal parfaits always leave a good impression. I would like to visit again.

It's my favorite. Seafood curry three days in a row (laughs) (^_^;) Seafood curry 2100 yen, Furano melon parfait 1980 yen. The seafood curry has a rich and sweet sauce with plenty of shrimp, scallops, and squid. Although the sauce doesn't have a strong seafood flavor, the abundance of ingredients gives it a great seafood taste, and it was really delicious. The melon parfait consists of melon jelly, hibiscus jelly, vanilla ice cream, cranberry sauce, whipped cream, and red melon sorbet, topped with slices of Furano melon. A typical parfait that was very delicious. It was past 1 pm after the consecutive holidays, but we were able to enter without waiting in line. I will definitely visit again.
