Hyperlocal Tokyo

Since Bar Oak was closed today, I went to Camelia. It's bustling and lively, probably because they serve food, even though it's a bar. However, the atmosphere is such that the noise doesn't bother you, making it a perfect spot for solitary contemplation. The food is delicious too. Today, I ordered the hamburger and crab cream croquette, recommended by the bartender to go with the whiskey I ordered. I thought it would be a hearty meal, and it was delicious.

I had beef stew for lunch. It was delicious, even considering the location. The table I was assigned was by the window with a view of KITTE, and there were many people passing by, wiping their sweat. However, the noise didn't reach inside the restaurant, and I was able to concentrate on my meal. I had a beer, which was 'Ichiban Shibori,' and the foam was incredibly fine. I was impressed by how skillfully it was poured. It was a visit with my spouse, and the staff even offered to take a commemorative photo for us. They were very kind and attentive. I would definitely like to visit this restaurant again.

I stopped by Camelia for a light dinner after shopping. The restaurant was full, so I ended up dining at a table set up in the hallway. Even so, the view was great and the atmosphere was nice. They offer a simplified menu until 8 pm, so I ordered the beef stew set. It came with soup, pudding, and coffee. The stew's meat was tender and came with warm vegetables and pasta. The food was consistently delicious, but I was surprised by the amazing pudding. It was topped with seasonal fruit and was rich and creamy. I recommend it for a slightly luxurious dinner. The more elaborate French cuisine is a bit pricier.

I recently enjoyed a meal at the course. As a resident of a local area, I often use the Station Hotel because of its convenient location. If you're looking for a meal, I highly recommend the Passage seats, which are spacious. The price is also very reasonable, and you can choose the amount of meat you want, making it the best. I will definitely visit again. Thank you.

I visited the bar and cafe at Tokyo Station Hotel on October 28, 2023 (Saturday) at 12:40 PM, alone and without a reservation. There was no wait time. I had the ¥8,000 course, and I was astonished by the value for money, considering the location. The course was inclusive of tax and service charge. The staff were incredibly attentive, as expected from a Tokyo Station Hotel bar and cafe. I plan to return for cocktails in the evening.
