A must-visit for special occasions! Enjoy a luxurious lunch at a restaurant in a detached house that will make you feel like you're in an extraordinary place (Tani, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City)
Hello! I'm hicho_cafe, who introduces cafes in Fukuoka on Instagram.
This time, I would like to introduce a wonderful restaurant that offers a panoramic view of Fukuoka city.
Perfect for anniversaries and celebrations! A restaurant where you can enjoy lunch while taking in a spectacular view: "IMURI" (Tani, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City)
IMURI is located about a seven-minute walk from Sakurazaka Station on the Nanakuma subway line. It is a restaurant in a standalone building where you can enjoy creative cuisine that combines Japanese and Western cuisine.
The store comes into view at the end of a path lined with beautiful fresh greenery.
Since it is located on a hill, you can get a panoramic view of Fukuoka cityscape from the window seats.
On a nice day, it would be nice to sit on the terrace.
There were also counter seats with a calm atmosphere.
There are four types of lunch: "Beef Fillet Course" (5,500 yen), which requires a reservation two days in advance, "Japanese-Western Chef's Choice Course" (8,800 yen), "IMURI Lunch Course" (2,970 yen), which can be eaten without a reservation, and "Charcoal Grilled Steak Lunch Course" (3,850 yen).
This time, we will introduce the "IMURI Lunch Course" (2,970 yen)♪
Appetizers made with seasonal ingredients
You can choose one of three seasonal appetizers. Since there were three of us, we ordered one each.
"Octopus and Agrum (citrus) Marinated" has a refreshing taste that is perfect as an appetizer.
"Steamed Chicken Salad with Plum and Apple Sauce" is an addictive sauce that is an exquisite match of the sourness of plums and the sweetness of apples.
The "Bamboo Shoot Quiche" is filled with large bamboo shoots, allowing you to fully enjoy the texture and flavor of bamboo shoots.
If you would like to enjoy all three appetizers, you can change to the "3 Appetizer Platter" for an additional 600 yen.
You can also add a "seasonal soup" for an additional 380 yen. The current season's soup is "Corn Cream Soup (cold)."
A satisfying main dish where you can enjoy both fish and meat
Amazingly, the main course here allows you to enjoy both fish and meat!
The fish dish is "Pan-fried red sea bream with kelp tapenade sauce."
Tapenade sauce is a sauce made with olives. It is topped with kelp and olive tapenade sauce,
The meat dish is "Pork belly cartilage stewed in tomato sauce."
The meat is simmered for a long time, so it's very tender and goes well with the tomato sauce!
The cartilage was soft, but still had a nice firmness to it, making it a dish with a fun texture.
Warm bread is also provided along with the meal.
It's delicious as is, but you can also dip it in the sauce from the main dish, or add butter for an additional 100 yen to bring out the flavor of the bread even more.
You can eat as much bread as you want.
Healthy desserts made with carefully selected ingredients
For dessert, you can enjoy cakes sold at "IMURI Western Confectionery Workshop" located on the same premises.
We ordered three types of ice cream: "Melon Tart," "Chantilly," and "Matcha Tiramisu."
The "Melon Tart" is a rare cheese tart topped with chunks of seasonal melon, giving it a refreshing taste.
The Shanti cake is a fluffy sponge cake filled with moderately sweet fresh cream made with wasanbon and red-fleshed melon.
"Matcha Tiramisu" is a cute cake topped with a tiny white chocolate sphere.
It was a luxurious treat, with Yame tea sponge, mascarpone mousse, and red bean paste.
For your after-meal drink, you can choose from coffee or tea. You can also have a refill for an additional 250 yen.
