The picture is JR Osaka station which had been under construction for
renewal and was reopened last summer. Hilton Hotel Osaka stands in front
of the station and there are many prestigious buildings like the Ritz
Carlton, some department stores, or many big office buildings in this
area, which is my favorite spot.
Recently I found a spacious tearoom called "Hilton Plaza Hall - The
Grand Cafe". As the name suggests it's in the Hilton Plaza West and the
concert hall like space is very luxurious. But not so formal that it's a
good place to lunch. Through the high and wide windows, you can enjoy
the view of the renewed station front which is very beautiful under the
blue sky. And more, the prices on the menu are very reasonable.
Recent my favorite is a plate of pastrami beef sandwiches with salad and
potato chips. And tea, of course. But there are many kinds of cakes,
parfaits, sandwiches, salads and even a set of afternoon tea on the
menu. Everything looks so delicious!
If you have a chance to visit Osaka and need a place to lunch or supper,
try The Grand Cafe. I think you'll have a good time.
