world wine museum

The weekend before our anniversary, we had lunch at the World Wine Museum (WWM).

If you remember we checked out the World Beer Museum.

The food is better at the WWM, but the wine portions, yikes!...they need to have the mandatory fill lines on the glasses like Germany apparently has.

Satoshi had a glass of German white while I went with an Italian sparkling.

We had the snapper carpaccio.

Duck with a mustard sauce.

Crab, tuna & avocado salad.

Shrimp Ajillo (shrimp cooked in olive oil)...we had to pay extra (250 yen) to get bread with this...

and a basket of fries (these could've been crispier).

My favorite dish was the ajillo but am still in shock about having to "buy" bread to go with it, shouldn't it come with?!...

Satoshi also had a glass of German red...total damage was 9000-something yen.

Pricey for lunch, but it was before our anniversary, so...

We're glad we tried this place, dunno that we'll be back soon though.

Wonderful- There must be my favorite. Umeda is now a fantastic place for shopping. A branch of my favorite character shop is in Umeda, too.

Food looks nice Kat. Too bad about the "manini" glasses of wine though.

they definitely need to tip the bottle a bit more in their pours - that's just a tickle on the tongue!

K and S said...

for sure Rowena, I debated about us getting a bottle but the prices were too high!

Take care!
