New Summer Lunch Dishes at Toyosu Fukurazume Cafe

The Toyosu Fukurazume Cafe, located in the bustling Toyosu Chikyu Manryo commercial complex in Tokyo, has launched exciting new lunch offerings. This limited-time menu, available from August 4 to August 31 during lunch hours (10 AM to 2 PM), features two special cold dashi rice dishes that are sure to delight your palate this summer.

New Menu Item 1: Edomae Grilled Anago Cold Dashi Rice

One of the highlights is the Edomae Grilled Anago Cold Dashi Rice served with special sudachi sea bream dashi. This dish showcases the season's fresh anago (conger eel), expertly grilled with a torch after being ordered. It is drizzled with a sweet and savory sauce before being served atop a bed of rice. Garnished with decorative slices of egg and colorful flower-shaped wheat crackers, the presentation is just as delightful as the taste.

The accompanying dashi is a special blend that intensifies the flavor of the sea bream while infusing it with the refreshing aroma of sudachi from Tokushima Prefecture. The combination of the aromatic grilled anago and the zesty sudachi creates a harmonious flavor that gently whets the appetite. You can also enjoy the sweetness of the egg and the depth added by the green peppercorn that tops the anago. For an interesting twist, adding fresh wasabi from the pickles is highly recommended.

New Menu Item 2: Steamed Chicken with Ume Cold Dashi Rice

The second dish offered is the Steamed Chicken with Ume Cold Dashi Rice, accompanied by special sea bream dashi. This dish perfectly highlights the beloved combination of steamed chicken, ume (plum) paste, and shiso leaves, making it a must-try during the sweltering summer.

The steamed chicken is moist, tender, and packed with deep umami. When paired with the refreshing ume paste and fragrant shiso, each bite bursts with tanginess and freshness. The special cold dashi of sea bream complements the dish with a flavorful yet light mouthfeel, enhancing the chicken's flavor. Seasonal ingredients like cucumber and edamame, along with the roasted aroma of arare rice crackers and charming colored marumofu, add delightful accents, making this a perfect dish for enjoying summer flavors. The fresh wasabi alongside the pickles also allows for a simple yet enjoyable flavor change.
