This time, we will introduce you to an afternoon tea-style lunch where sushi is the main attraction, which can be enjoyed on the top floor of the Hilton Fukuoka Sea Hawk.

Located 123 meters above ground, it is also known as "the restaurant closest to the sky in Fukuoka." The view from the windows is beautiful and captivating.

Lunch only! Sushi Afternoon Tea "Hualien"
This time, I ordered the lunch menu "Karen" (normal seat 5,800 yen, ocean view seat 6,000 yen *both per person), which is only available from 12:00 to 14:30 (last entry at 14:00).
This new menu, which started on June 21, 2023, is a "Sushi Afternoon Tea" that comes with "6 types of sushi" and "4 types of sweets," each delivered in a wooden box.

The main sushi is prepared by a chef who has demonstrated his skills in numerous hotels and sushi restaurants.
The sushi prepared by the head chef is a delicate and carefully prepared masterpiece that brings out the best in the seafood.
If you sit at the counter, you'll be entertained with light-hearted conversation.

From here, I will give you a detailed introduction to what Hualien was like on the day I visited (the content may change depending on the season).
The first wooden box contains a beautifully arranged appetizer, five pieces of sushi, and cocktail sushi.

Appetizers
There are three types of appetizers available, all made with vegetables from Fukuoka Prefecture, allowing you to enjoy the seasonal flavors.

They are all light and easy to eat, so you can munch on them before eating your sushi. They also look beautiful, and leave you feeling happy.

Five pieces of sushi
There are five carefully selected sushi pieces in total, with the toppings changing depending on the season.
This is seasonal white fish and salmon.
The white meat on this day was fish bones. It was very fresh and had a refreshing taste. The rice, which was slightly seasoned with red vinegar, went perfectly with the topping. Incidentally, the rice on this day was a blend of koshihikari rice grown on the rice terraces of Saga. Please pay attention to the flavor and texture of the rice.
The carefully braided salmon melts slowly in your mouth.

This is tuna, prawns, and squid.
The tuna served with caviar is a dish that shows the chef's skill, with a harmonious balance of the flavor of the special sauce and the freshness of the tuna.
The chewy and sweet tiger prawns are paired with a refreshing yuzu flavor.
The moment you bite into the soft squid, the rich flavor of sesame oil fills your mouth. The plum paste on top is perfectly seasoned, and I was impressed!

The cocktail sushi was not only beautiful to look at, but also delicious.

I was able to enjoy the variety of flavors and textures, and the combination of each ingredient was excellent when I put it in my mouth.
Next, the second wooden box contains two seasonal sweets and a choice of two Japanese sweets.

Two seasonal sweets
The seasonal sweets are from the "Sky Afternoon Tea" at Bar & Dining CLOUDS, also located on the 35th floor. You can enjoy artistic sweets created by Executive Pastry Chef Ashutosh Kumar.
This is the "Vanilla Pecan Choux with Pecan Praline." This is a masterpiece that combines the fragrantly baked, mild-tasting choux pastry with the melting cream.

This "Matcha and Yuzu Roll Cake" is a fusion of Japanese and Western styles created by a chef who loves yuzu. The astringent matcha and the refreshing aroma of yuzu make for a flavorful and memorable taste.

By the way, the tea used in the sushi afternoon tea is Yame tea from Hoshinomura, Yame City.
The mellow texture was perfect for pairing with sushi and sweets.
