It had been six years since my last visit to Nakatani-tei, which I wrote about here.
These days I find myself in this area more often, so I'm trying to re-connect with some of the places I've visited when I first started this blog.
Anyway, I ordered the tarte salée set...1680 yen. This came with a tarte made from scallops, zucchini, tomato. A salad, a slice of homemade bread and some potato salad.
Everything was delicious. I liked that the tarte didn't skimp on ingredients, there were huge pieces of scallop in there.
Dessert was from the showcase and I chose something called "Fraisier", Japanese style strawberry shortcake.
I loved how there was strawberry in every bite.
And what amazed me was how my slice never toppled over...the secret?! A little neat slather of chocolate on the plate to hold the slice in place...brilliant!
I'm glad I got a chance to go back and hope to bring Satoshi here soon!

I like that square shape of the tarte. Definitely not something I've seen before.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE strawberry shortcakes in Japan - so good!
ReplyDeleteI think they make it that shape so they don't have to cut it like a quiche, Rowena.
