Japan Holiday / Vietnamese In Fukuoka

Noodle

Oct 30

福岡に11時半ごろについて、予約していたベトナム料理レストラン「ロータスパレス」にランチに行きました。駅構内の「博多シティーくうてん」の10階にありました。入るとお店の人はほとんどがベトナムの方のようで、キッチンへのオーダーもベトナム語でされていたのでこれは期待出来そう、と思ったのですが。。。

We arrived in Fukuoka around 11:30, then went to a Vietnamese restaurant for lunch. It was called "Lotus Palace" and in Hakata City Kuuten in Hakata station on the 10th floor. When we went in, we noticed that most staff including the chefs were Vietnamese, so we thought it was a good thing and we'll have a great lunch.

メニューを見るとアラカルトにするととても高くなりそうだったので、ランチセットを2つオーダーしてシェアし、追加で揚げ春巻きをオーダーしました。

We looked at a la cart but they were quite expensive so we decided to stick with their set menu but added 2 deep-fried spring rolls.

揚げ春巻きはまぁまぁ、でしたが、ついているヌクチャムの味が薄すぎるのと、巻いて食べるように添えてあったレタスがしなしなで(涙)残念でした。

Spring rolls were so so, not the best but OK. I though the sauce could be stronger with more seasoning. The 2 pieces of lettuce that came so we can wrap the spring rolls were so limp and not fresh.

1つは、チキンのレモングラスご飯のセットにしました。小さなチキンのフォー、揚げ春巻きともう1種類、モチッとした皮春巻き、デザートは2種類から選べてマンゴープリンのセット。揚げ春巻きはまぁまぁ、もちっとした方のは美味しかったです。フォーはスープと麺はまぁ美味しいと思いましたが、ついてくる香草類が少な過ぎて物足らなかったのと、チキンがとても臭くて食べられずでした。そして、チキンのレモングラス風味ライスもレモングラスの風味はあまりせず、何か苦手な匂いがしてわたしは食べられませんでした。

One of the sets we ordered was Lemon Grass Chicken Rice Set - it came with lemon grass chicken rice, a small bowl of chicken pho, 2 kinds of spring rolls (deep-fried spring rolls and the one with thick chewy skin) and also mango pudding (we could choose from 2 desserts, it was a tiny piece). Deep-friend spring rolls were OK (same as the above), and the other spring rolls were quite good. The soup of the pho and the noodles were nice but not enough herbs and chicken was very strongly chickeny I couldn't eat it. The lemon grass chicken rice didn't seem to have much lemon grass flavour and had some flavour I really didn't like.

もう1つのセットは、今日の一皿、のセットで、今日はビーフの炒め物。雑穀米と生春巻き、小さなチキンのフォー、デザートはチェー。フォーは上のフォーと同じ、チキンは食べられず。生春巻きは割と美味しかったですが、ついていたソースが日本の酢味噌のような味でちょっと違和感あり。炒め物はあまり風味がなく、薄味すぎてご飯のオカズにんる味ではなかったです。

The other set we ordered was "Today's Dish Set" and today's dish was stir-fried beef and mushrooms. It came with rice with multi grain, fresh spring rolls, a small bowl of chicken pho and dessert (che). Pho is the same as the above, I couldn't eat the chicken. Fresh spring rolls were good but the sauce tasted like a Japanese vinegar and miso sauce, a bit strange. Stir-fried beef and mushrooms were very lightly seasoned so didn't really go with rice.

ということで、ちょっとがっかりなランチでした。日本は平均して美味しいと思いますが、エスニック系は苦手分野かな、と感じます。合計で、4500円くらい。安くはない。

So, I have to say it was quite disappointing. Although I feel food in Japan is very good in average, ethnic isn't their strength. It wasn't cheap for Japan either - 4,500yen (£25).
