Seasonal menu ☆ “Meeting to enjoy grilled abalone pie and blue omar”
I was invited to a meeting where the gourmet regulars wanted to eat the seasonal menu that they want to eat around this time every year (^^)♪
What is that seasonal menu?
“A party to enjoy grilled abalone pie and blue omal”
When I heard the story, I was told that the large abalone would be grilled in a pie wrap and each person would be served half of it, so just hearing the story made my expectations rise.
Moreover, when the uncooked Blue Omar was unveiled, I was surprised at its size! ️
Blue Omar, widely known as a high-quality French ingredient, is truly the best brand of lobster.
I was very curious about the taste of blue lobster from Brittany, and how it differs from the lobster that I sometimes eat at restaurants in the street ❗️
The chef has a background as a chef at a restaurant in Le Mas Tourteron in the south of France, and is now the chef of a famous restaurant that has received a Michelin star, but he is particular about doing all the cooking by himself.
What's more, the regular customers seem to be surprised at how much effort they put into cooking and preparing the food, which is what I expected (^^)♪
Normally it would be a high hurdle with only 3 groups, but on this day it was a private party for only 6 people, which shows the chef's enthusiasm.
Ask for a wine pairing and start toasting with bubbles♪

The first dish of Blue Omar from Brittany is a salad of arms and nails.
The second dish is roasted torso with coconut and lemongrass sauce.
The salad has a firm texture, but you can enjoy the sweetness of the Blue Omar, making it a very luxurious salad.
The roasted torso is made with coconut and lemongrass sauce, and the combination of sweetness and sourness with the Blue Omar makes it extremely delicious! ️
The much-awaited black abalone pie wrap is Chef Nishino's original dish, which consists of thickly sliced black abalone wrapped in vine murasaki and paired with sea bream and scallop mousse.
Compared to the abalone dishes I've eaten so far, the texture and flavor are so delicious❗️
I think regular abalone dishes are also high-class, but this pie-wrapped black abalone is a delicious dish on another level (´∀`)♪
It was a wonderful restaurant that made full use of traditional French cooking techniques and spared no effort in cooking and preparation, and the exquisite searing of the meat and the seasoning of the sauce that brought out the flavors of the ingredients were wonderful (^^)♪
The restaurant's name, Lavande, means lavender in French, and the restaurant is named after lavender, a specialty of Provence, in order to remember the memories of his time as a chef in the south of France.
The interior of the restaurant is based on white, and the lavender-colored dishes on the lavender plates are reminiscent of a lavender field. Enjoy grilled abalone pie wrapped in a calming atmosphere while enjoying an extraordinary feeling. It was great to enjoy Blue Omar♪
Once again, I would like to thank the secretary for inviting me and everyone who attended☆
Thank you for the meal m(__)m
