I haven’t been there before but Okinawa is such a nice place to visit, thanks Rakuen invited us to taste the authentic Okinawan cuisine, we’ve chosen almost 20 dishes including peanut tofu, sea grapes, wagyu and chicken, etc. There are few dishes that most impressed me as it was yum and with a good texture and combination. Peanut Tofu is kind of bean curd liked cold dishes, actually it made of sweet potato flour mixing with the peanut juice, so it is chewy and full of peanut flavor but no soy bean inside. And the Jewel leaf is another unique food ingredient originated from Okinawa, an interesting appearance and texture is really special that you never found in other vegetables.

The fried rice with squid ink served with a sunny-side up egg, mixed the egg yolk into the rice, its sticky and chewy, also the seasoning is great for the dish as you know squid ink is tasteless at all actually. I would like to recommend the Okinawa style deep-fried chicken drums, dipped with the Oki salt is the best combo with beer. Last but not least the salt ice cream is milky with a salty after taste, it was really great to have one especially for those who ordered deep-fried food with beer.

The Sake bottle are all put on aside and there is a outdoor or indoor area to choose with, the interior design is great but surprisingly the English song was playing, I know here is LKF but I guess playing the Japanese songs would be much better in this place as all the guests included local people, Japanese or foreigners would expect a greater Japanese atmosphere here. Thanks for the invitation and it was really a nice night with my friends.

樂宴其實在銅鑼灣都有店, 風評一直都不錯. 這晚來到的是中環店, 地點位處於蘭桂芳那條斜路的商廈內, 地面雖然沒有什麼特別明顯的招牌, 但如果按著GOOGLE MAP走找起來又不算很難. 而這家中環店環境更來得寬敞, 除了一邊是BAR枱跟半梳化卡座之外, 這裡也有一邊是半露天用餐區, 方便吸煙人仕. 只見這晚來的八成都是日本人, 吃起飯來更有風味.

要數沖繩料理中最著名的幾種菜色其實不難, 當中這個海葡萄幾乎在沖繩每間餐廳或超市都會找到. 但來到香港就真的難尋, 或是賣價奇高得來又不新鮮. 這裡一碟上來份量竟然十分多而且又大串, 色澤翠綠鮮明, 沒有出現陰沉暗淡的狀態, 當中連著的小顆粒亦粒粒漲卜卜十分飽滿.
海葡萄屬海藻類, 所以入口其實味道有點像昆布, 不過質感脆卜卜的吃起來十分過癮, 配上少許豉油或醋味道更突出.

曾在沖繩吃過花生豆腐後瘋狂得在超市買了半打急凍的回港, 甚至到機場最後一刻都仍在掃多幾盒才罷休. 不過這款花生豆腐不是人人喜愛, 宅女就曾經在香港某家沖繩料理店眼看過一對點了這款豆腐的情侶吃了一口就大罵質感太黏太古怪把整碟都放棄. 其實這個花生豆腐質感跟我們平常吃的豆腐完全是兩碼子的事, 內裡加了紅薯粉入口黏稠得來又帶有彈性, 當中亦能吃到陣陣花生的微香. 個人喜歡加點甜醬油來吃, 味道更富層次感.

這款冰葉雖然巳經不是第一次吃, 但每一次看到這個冰葉上那一點點的水珠跟翠綠的色澤, 實在非常吸引! 入口冰葉非常薄脆亦帶著鮮甜清爽的感覺, 平時常聽人說菜蔬怎樣新鮮, 但吃過這個冰葉就真的確確實實能吃到那份'鮮'的感覺了!

這個算是沖繩的家常菜吧, 簡簡單單的以苦瓜片, 加入蛋, 豆腐和豬肉就能完成. 不過宅女本身不吃苦瓜, 但那時在沖繩竟然天天都有吃, 全因那裡的苦瓜入口甘而不苦. 這裡上來的看似雞蛋少了點, 苦瓜炒得尚算脆口, 不過吃起來是有點苦, 跟在當地吃的有點差距, 但也可以接受. 豬肉炒得軟淋不乾. 整體來說水準普通, 但也不錯吃的.

要吃串燒就必定要來個厚燒牛舌才是皇道吧! 不過這裡的未算好厚, 但燒得剛剛好, 咬下去有彈性之餘肉質也十分軟棉, 加上點點黑椒粒作伴, 味道當然不錯了! 算是一道驚喜度不大, 但穩打穩紮的菜色. 用來送啤酒實在不錯.

沖繩炒麵也算是另一道不能缺的主食. 這裡用了墨魚汁來作底, 再加入墨魚和韭菜炒成. 入口麵條未如預期中煙韌, 而且味道亦偏淡一點, 幸好炒出來不算很油, 如果加多一點韭菜會更有口感. 宅女自己覺得這款水準同樣亦只算是普通水準.

對於食肉獸來說去沖繩絕對不能不吃石垣牛跟AGU豬, 吃過保證番尋味! 這晚雖然不是即席SHABU SHABU AGU豬, 但也來個沙律過過癮. 把灼熟了的AGU豬肉片混在加有芝麻醬的沙律內冷吃, 入口依然非常柔軟可口, 連著少連肥脂口感豐厚, 加上芝麻醬又不會好膩, 配著沙律菜吃原來亦能擦出火花. 實在是個意想不到的配搭.

這款比牛舌來得更有份量! 只見那一舊舊非常厚身的和牛粒燒得帶點焦香, 咬開來中間仍是粉嫩多汁, 肉質豐香得來又夠軟棉, 雖然賣價的確不便宜, 但正所謂多吃會壞肚皮, 其實吃上兩舊或頂多一串巳夠非常滿足了.

從來都不能抗拒沖繩的鹽, 這款炸雞膇小小的一枝炸得表面金黃亮麗, 更是油份不多. 本來以為這道菜沒什麼特別, 但其實亮點在於旁邊那一小碟的雪鹽. 把雞膇沾一沾鹽巴 (注意不要沾太多), 小咬一口, 香脆的表面加上微咸的鹽味產生出十分香口惹味的味道, 中間的雞肉就較乾了一點, 如果可以JUICY多一點的話, 這道菜便完美了!

感謝店方跟公關之邀令宅女再次回味到沖繩的美食.
食物方面某些的確是不錯, 像海葡萄跟花生豆腐巳能到跟在沖繩的九成風味, 而且那個AGU豬沙律更是能開脾胃的回味之作. 但有些就有待改進.
不過餐廳環境實在不錯, 佈置也富有沖繩風格, 而且食客不算非常多, 坐起來十分舒適.
看到餐牌也有很多其他不同款式的沖繩菜, 例如沖繩腐乳, 沖繩炆豬肉, 厚炸沖繩豆腐等, 下次再來試試!!

I visited Okinawa for the first time 2 years ago and when I came back to HK, I missed the food there and searched for Okinawan restaurants, which was how I stumbled upon Rakuen in CWB. I love the food there so I was excited when I received a tasting invitation for their branch in LKF!

I visited Okinawa for the first time 2 years ago and when I came back to HK, I missed the food there and searched for Okinawan restaurants, which was how I stumbled upon Rakuen in CWB. I love the food there so I was excited when I received a tasting invitation for their branch in LKF! Located on D'aguilar Street, the restaurant was located in a building right smack in the middle of the pubs and bars area. 

The decor was similar to the CWB branch in that it looked like a traditional Japanese izakaya with wooden furnitures and bottles of sakes lining the walls. It was bigger and more spacious than the CWB branch. The menu choices were vast from traditional Okinawan cuisine to wagyu beef to fresh sashimi. The menus in LKF and CWB were mostly similar, though I think there were some items that were only available in LKF and vice versa. Thanks to the restaurant, we were given a budget and got to picked whatever we wanted from their menu. 

Home Made Peanut Flavored Tofu
 ($65) - this is one of my favorite Okinawan snack! The texture of the tofu was not typical at all as it was more chewy like mochi. It had a strong tofu taste with a hint of peanut flavor, which was enhanced perfectly by the soy sauce.

Sea Grapes ($68) - also known as green caviar, sea grapes are another Okinawan specialty. The sea grapes were lovely to eat as each grape burst in my mouth when I munch on them. The accompanying vinegar sauce was great for dipping the sea grapes in to eat.

Jewel Leaf ($65) - surprisingly very good! I've never tried this before because I thought it would be a bit bland just to eat leaf so I never order it. Lined with tiny droplets of water on the surface, the leaf was very snappy and crunchy to eat! It tasted very fresh and moist at the same time.

Stir Fried Bitter Gourd with Pork ($78) - another must-have Okinawan dish. I must confess that I'm not a big bitter gourd fan at all. The Okinawan bitter gourd tends to be firmer and crisper in texture. While the texture of the gourd was great, I thought it could have used more egg and tofu to balance out the dish.

Okinawa Agu Pork Salad ($88) - I thought the pork would be too heavy in taste to work with a salad, but they actually went together pretty well! The pork was thinly sliced which was flavorful to eat. Tossed with Japanese sesame dressing, the entire salad tasted light and appetizing to eat.

Snapper Carpaccio ($138) - the sashimi in the CWB branch was always a delight and the same goes for this branch as well. The snapper carpaccio here was very fresh and delicious to eat! Drizzled with a tart lemon sauce, the carpaccio was flavorful and refreshing.

Deep Fried Okinawa Chicken Drums ($88) - they had a whole special menu dedicated to Okinawa chicken at the LKF branch. The chicken drumsticks were deep-fried so they were nice and crunchy to eat! It also came with Okinawa powder salt, which enhanced the flavors as well.

Overall, I think the main classic Okinawa dishes were nicely executed at the same level as the CWB branch. The yakitori have room to improve though as some of the dishes were a bit overseasoned. Their ambiance was also a bit mixed as they were playing Katy Perry and other pop songs which didn't really match the decor. I guess they are trying to cater to the LKF crowd but it's neither here or there now. There was a table full of Japanese men sitting in the booth next to us who were really enjoying themselves. Perhaps they should stick to a more traditional Japanese environment like the CWB branch.

the first warning sign: last minute booking available on friday night;
second warning sign: lots of empty tables at 8pm;
most food we ordered were either salty, thought it was okinawa style to have salty food, or very salty, so much that we had to return an order of wasabi squid
beer was about $60 a bottle, well, we were in lkf afterall so i thought there's no complain.
the problem came when we found in the bill an item listed as "open food", which was supposed to be an order of a $55 fried leaf (沖繩冰葉), instead it was a $160 dish.
checked with the english speaking waitress, who took our orders including this dish, and she explained to us that the leaf had sea urchin added and so it's pricier. when we disputed about the order, she just smiled and took off.
to be honest, if we had in mind that we ordered this more pricier dish, it's only fair for us to pay or beat ourself for not having asked for the price when ordering. but when we placed our order we had simply pointed at the picture of the $55 dish on the separate menu card and never thought she was "mistaking" us for ordering the one with sea urchin, which was not shown on the menu anyway. and we hadn't even noticed or tasted any sea urchin in it thinking back.
and since the dish was not listed on the menu, they could have charged us $1,600 or so!
my advice is, in case you are there and ordering anything off menu, check the price so that you can avoid running into this "misunderstanding" that we had. we can't help but felt like being cheated. the extra cost is one thing, our friday evening ruined is even more upsetting.
Other Info. : to be fair, i must mention that the peanut flavored tofu was good and if you really must go there, that's a signature dish while everything else, salty. i wanted to give no point to 味道, 服務 and 抵食 categories but openrice required at least a point in each category....

Okinawa is a place that I long to go but have not got the chance yet. I was very excited when I received the tasting invitation from Ku-Suya Rakuen, a Japanese Izakaya offering Okinawa cuisine. I invited Shogun Van Gogh and Gastronomerr to join my tasting tonight.

Rakuen's ambiance is pretty causal in dim lighting. The decorations are awesome with racks of sakes and other Japanese elements. There is also an alfresco area where Japanese Red Lanterns are hanging along the edge to create an intimate but laid back scene. You can also choose to sit inside or sit side-by-side at the bar stools to enjoy a cup of sake and Okinawa delicacies. Just a note that the music playing at the background is an international mix and can go real weird. (e.g. Justin Bieber's Baby were player LOL) I personally reckon Rakuen should change their music selection completely.

Sea Grapes (Green Caviar)
The sea grapes is an Okinawa specialty dish and an must order item here at Rakuen! The sea grapes shocked me as I somehow presume it tastes like typical seaweed. It was very light and bubbly. It does has a texture like craviar where it pops with fluid.

The Jewel Leaf is another Okinawa specialty dish. It looks very ordinary but it has the most interesting texture you ever find on any vegetables! The Jewel leaf was very icy and extremly crisp.

Stir Fried Bitter Gourd with Pork
Bitter Gourd is another specialty dish from Okinawa. I am never a big fan of bitter gourd, as the song from Eason suggests, you have to be at certain age to appreciate bitter gourd. (Yes I was hinting I am still young
) Okinawa's bitter gourd is less bitter and gooey than the Chinese's bitter gourd. A great tip from Shogun Van Gogh is to savour the bitter gourd with Japanese Soy Sauce. For some reason, the bitter gourd tasted very sweet and refreshing all of a sudden with the Japanese Soy Sauce! The bitterness was somehow gone! This little trick can totally makes me like bitter gourd man!

The chicken wings were nicely grilled and savoury. It was not a wow dish though, order this if you like wings.

Deep Fried Okinawa Chicken with Okinawa Tofu Tartare Sauce
The highlight of this dish lied on the Okinawa tofu tartare sauce. The tartare sauce was creamy with a strong tofu taste and a mild cheese taste in it. The deep fried chicken was yummy, deep fried with crispy skin but without grease. Delicious!

Deluxe Assorted Sashimi Platter
The sashimi was pretty standard. I love the Ebi and Uni here. The huge Ebi tasted very fresh and was extremely smooth and fatty. The Uni was very fresh and sweet too. Shogun said restaurants usually serve Uni from Hokkaido or California, sometimes South Korea. This orangy Uni is probably from Cali, Since Uni from Hokkaido is usually in yellow colour. Hotate (scallop) was pretty nice but was not the smoothest or sweetest that I have tried. The Buri was a mature version of the Hamachi carpaccio that we had earlier and had a totally different texture. The Buri was a chewy piece. The Ikura (Salmon Roe) was pretty fresh and sweet. I didn't like salmon, so I didn't try. Lastly the Maguro (Tuna) was not very nice when compare to others on the plate.

Highball & Ukon Tea
Both Highball & Ukon Tea are Okinawa drinks. Highball is basically water down Japanese whisky. I did not like it too much, it reminds me of cheap whisky mix at pubs.

Ukon Tea is a kind of ginger tea which is said to smooth the alcohol effects. The ginger taste was pretty strong but was only mildly spicy. I like this.

Many of the items we had tonight were awesome, especially the Okinawa specials! In between dinners, we were told all (or almost all) Okinawa restaurants are under the same group EN Group. Restaurant like BRIDGES, which is on my to try list for long, is a higher end restaurant offering Okinawa cuisines in Causeway bay, also under the same group. Oh, also if you like Rakuen facebook page, you can can a draft beer of soft drink for free (Friday exclusive though). I truly like Okinawa cuisine and I do recommend whoever that have not tried Okinawa cuisine yet, GO!

at Rakuen in Lan Kwai fong. Now the Causeway Bay branch has been around for a while with quite a good following but this branch, in a somewhat nondescript building of LKF is much quieter (and comfier!) Anyhow, rather than giving us a set menu of selected dishes we were given a budget which we thought was much better as this allows for room for people with picky palates or allergies (*myself included)... Since they have a recent Okinawan chicken specials menu, we went ahead and ordered several dishes from there as well as Rakuen's signatures and staples.
Home Made Peanut Flavoured Tofu ($55): This dish is one of their signatures and it's not hard to see why - incredible flavour of peanut fills each bite of jelly-like creamy tofu. "Rich" would be one word for the texture - yum!
Umi Budo (Sea Grapes) aka Green Caviar ($65): This strips of green pearls, believe it or not, are actually a type of seaweed from Okinawa. It has a rather addictive texture - like caviar with a little more firmness to it or even popping boba for those who have tried. Taste wise, it's very light but definitely has a briny, taste of the sea; and was served with a light soy sauce.
Chu-Hi Okinawa Lime ($60): The manager at Rakuen very kindly treated us to (multiple) rounds of drinks. As we had work the next day I was a little hesitant but decided to go with this lovely and refreshing sour lime cocktail. If you like vodka-lime or mojitos, you're going to dig this!
Rudderfish with Salmon Roe ($110): This rudderfish is, I believe, in the same family as amberjack (kanpachi). This had a very light flavour and the flesh was quite soft with less oil compared to it's cousins, which meant the salmon roe (ikura) was a good match to give it a lovely salty and briny taste when eaten together.
Okinawa Chicken and Tofu with Potherb Mustard Salad ($98): One of our favourite dishes tonight was this simple-looking salad. Underneath the greens there's a layer of fluffy, mayonnaise and tofu dressed shredded Okinawan chicken... I don't think I have had anything like it. Think mayonnaise chicken sandwich fillings but elevated. mmhmm.
Jewel Leaf ($55): These are the greens of the cacti plant that have a slightly crunchier texture to salad greens and was very fun to eat. Served with mayonnaise and light soy - mix both together for a creamy salty dip!
Stir Fried Bitter Gourd with Pork ($78): I'm not a fan of bitter gourd but dipped in soy the bacon and bitter gourd combo was quite enjoyable. On it's own, we all agreed it lacked a little seasoning.
Smoked Pork Knuckles ($68): One of the least impressive dishes for me - the knuckles lacked crispy crackling and was all fat underneath...
Grilled Okinawa Chicken Wings with Pepper & Salt ($85): A little pricy for four pieces of wings if you ask me - these were well-seasoned but nothing memorable to write home about. Perhaps a longer time on the grill would have given it a crispy skin that I was looking for...
Deep Fried Okinawa Chicken with Okinawa Tofu Tartar Sauce ($90): Due to my allergies I was unable to try the battered fried chicken but from what I heard it was delicious! The glaze on the chicken is a sweet, sticky one and the tofu tartar sauce underneath with the greens underneath is a combination of mashed tofu, mayo and tofu pieces.
Deep Fried Okinawa Chicken Drums with Okinawa Powder Salt ($88): Given my allergy I was unfortunately unable to try this either... but this was demolished by the end of the night. Who doesn't like fried chicken anyway?!
Deep Fried Lotus Root ($60): Like crisps but better, made to order and fried to perfection with a spicy-sweet tomato sauce.
Fried Rice with Squid Ink ($78): This was another delicious creation of Rakuen. Save for the very undercooked egg (the picture shows you a full sunny-side-up!) and the rice being too soft, the flavour was outstanding as it had a smokiness from the frying process "wok hei" that one seldom finds in many of the Chinese restaurants around town when you order fried rice. The squid ink is not too apparent, more for colour... my only recommendation would be to add more squid to it for a varied texture within this dish. All in all, a dish I definitely recommend others to order!
Sashimi Platter ($480): The selection here was quite a good one, my favourites being the sweet and very fresh sea urchin, the snapper, the sweet scallops, and the greater amberjack which had a more chewy texture than the rudderfish above. Less-so was the tuna which was quite oxidised and not very fresh...
Turmeric tea ($40): Upon F's recommendation, Nini and myself ordered this Okinawan specialty to help the alcohol pass from our bodies more quickly... It was definitely interesting as although I often find turmeric in foods I've never had it as a drink. It was quite mild so it wasn't bad but I definitely would prefer matcha over this!
All in all an incredibly delicious Okinawan meal with only a few misses... I am definitely going to be back very soon to try out the other items on their regular menu!

I’ve always been a big fan of Rakuen at Causeway Bay and En at TST. So I was very happy to join this tasting event.

Décor:

The central branch was almost double the size of the CWB branch. The CWB branch had a rustic, cozy feel to it but the central branch felt slightly more modern. (Instead of Okinawan music, we hear New Direction.)

Importantly, there was an al fresco bar area - excellent news for smokers. Menu: As you might already know, Rakuen, En and Bridge all do Okinawan food, such as many bitter gourd based cuisines, Taco rice, Okinawa soba…etc.



Our main purpose during this tasting was to try out their new “Okinawa Chicken” menu, which included tsukune, fried drum sticks, chicken wings, gizzards and chicken salad.



Chicken drumsticks with powdered Okinawan salt: ($88): This was very good. Succulent, tender & flavourful. I believe the Okinawan salt was the key to enhancing the taste of this whole dish. Recommended.

Okinawa chicken salad: Gastronomerr really liked it. We weren't able to find the chicken in the salad at first. We later discovered that the minced chicken meat was mixed with mayo and perhaps a bit of egg white. This went very well with the fresh veggies.

Fried Chicken chunks with tofu tartar sauce: Essentially a Chicken Karaage with a sweet and sour sauce. The chicken chunks were placed on a bed of “tofu tar tar sauce”. It was my first time trying this tofu tar tar sauce, it felt like mashed tofu mixed with a bit of cream cheese. Very interesting. Worth a try.

Chicken wings ($85): This smelled very good when it first arrived on our table. We had this after a while so it wasn’t as aromatic as I thought it would be. The wings were tender but could have more impact. The taste was on the light side.

Okinawa Jewel leaf (or Ice leaf): A very distinctive Okinawan dish. It’s almost like eating a very fresh piece of leave with morning dew on it. Very refreshing.

Sea Grapes (Umi Budou): In fact a type of coral picked straight from the sea. Our host David actually cultivates his own coral for eating. Amazing! Remember to dip it in the vinegar/ponzu mixture otherwise the seawater taste might be quite overwhelming for some.

The great thing about this tasting was that there wasn't a set menu. We could order whatever we wanted to as long as it's within a certain budget. What this means is that the restaurant didn’t know what we would order in advance and may thus be a better reflection of their default standard.

During my first visit here, I found that some of the dishes were smaller than the CWB branch (such as the fried calamari and the konbu fried rice). However, the portions this time was pretty generous. (We checked the size of the same dishes on other tables and they were the same.)

All in all, a good place to go to if you’re at LKF. The bill came down to about $400 per head (excluding drinks). Finally, I have to thank David for organizing this tasting and Food Craver for inviting me along.



Other Info. : 其實一向都有去CWB的【樂宴】 和 TST的【宴】。所以有食友邀請試吃便欣然答應。 CWB的Rakuen面積較小但很Cozy。中環的則較似LFK的酒吧。每間的感覺都截然不同。

喜歡喝酒的人可以品嚐看看沖繩的蒸餾酒「泡盛」。沖繩料理的泡盛(あわもりAWAMORI)酒精都會40度以上,都屬於烈酒。但此店更創意地用了一些低酒精濃度的泡盛去調較出多款的Awamori Cocktail 的飲品,平時不是太好飲酒的我今天都忍晤住要飲番杯,更得好友善有禮的bartender 熱誠的推介而且Awamori Cocktail所用的泡盛都只是25度酒精,所以我今天點了杯Red Peach 作我餐前的飲品。用了くらKuRa Standard的泡盛加上香甜Peach及Cranberry juice ,味道清甜微酸,入口冰涼同時果味香甜而且容易入口。 此外友人點了Shiqusa Juicegrava juice 及awamori cocktail 的chura-san shiqusa juice其實是一杯青檸特飲,而grava juice是一杯石榴汁而chura-san 是一杯KuRa Standard+orange juice +mango juice及grenadine,友人說杯chura-san都好fruity 及好清甜,而且酒精度晤高好易入口。

這所店的裝修更有地道日本居酒屋的特色,四周掛上日式的燈籠,擺設了不少的泡盛酒樽及掛上了一些沖繩料理食物的繪畫,仿如置身日本的沖繩般。此地方又不會好吵鬧,也是把酒言歡的好地方,再點幾碟佐酒的小食便是不錯。

唐揚炸軟殼蟹的size 都幾大隻,都好有肉又香口,口感酥鬆,脆卜卜又不會有過多的油份滲出。 配食一些沙律菜更可以減少油膩感。

海老天婦羅舖面的粉漿厚薄適中,用的食材都好新鮮,有又不會多餘的油份,食落更不會有油膩感。
炸芝士用了Camembert 芝士製作,芝士的味道濃郁滑膩,內裡柔軟外脆,蘸上藍莓果醬佯食味道甜甜酸酸,便可減低油膩感,配搭都好match。

Even though I don't drink, LFK is a great place for food if you know where to go!
Last time at LKF I had amazing African food without trekking too far because LKF is really close to the MTR.

There is another branch of Rakuen in Causeway Bay but frankly I prefer this branch because it is much more accessible and the male staff here was so professional and spoke fluent ENGLISH.
A great place for XBC's to hangout!

I have previously tried Rakuen in Causeway Bay and the food was great so I did not hesitate to try the LKF branch.
It is only on the 4th floor too which is a short elevator ride compared to the CWB branch.

These Jewel leaves were magic and stunning, they appear to have tiny water droplets on the surface but they are tiny sacs of liquid.
When you touch them those droplets do not come off.
Jewel leaves are scientifically called Mesembryanthemum crystallinum which is covered with large, glistening bladder cells, commonly called common ice plant, crystalline iceplant or iceplant.
When you eat them, they are delicate and crispy and just collapse into liquid with a savory taste.
Its almost like a fibreless vegetable!

The deep fried camembert was delicious, it was oozing with melted cheese in the middle.
If it is too cheesy, there is a blueberry dip to go with it.

Sweet potato icecream:
Out of the three flavours, this was my favourite because of the colour and sweet potato taste.
Okinawa sugar icecream:
This was the brown one on the far right corner, the okinawa sugar taste was subtle.
Cookie and sea salt icecream:
I was expecting the sea salt taste to be strong but I could not taste it, however the cookie and vanilla taste was more prominent.

沖繩人佔日本人口的比率不高,不過他們精於天然健康飲食之道,所以向來出名長壽。其實沖繩料理在日本大大小小的最愛餐廳選舉中經常入圍,可見沖繩美食一直深得大部分日本人支持。而筆者就繼早前去過銅鑼灣的「樂宴」,品嚐了一頓正宗的沖繩料理後,這天又再獲邀與一衆食友來到「樂宴」的中環店,細嚐多道沖繩特色美饌,在此先要向店方及公關朋友道謝,當然也得感謝食友  SSG 的推薦。座落於中環蘭桂坊的「樂宴」,裝潢以木色為主調,配上室內柔和的燈光,令人感覺既溫馨又舒服。入座後先環顧四周,座位擺設得比較疏落,用餐區空間感十足,而且佈置風格頗為簡約,不過原來餐廳盡頭附設一側落地玻璃門露台,非常適合上班族放工後在此暢聚談天,設計果然有別於一般日式居酒屋。用餐前先每人點杯飲品,食友們分別點了 Shiqusa Juice ($40) 及 Red Peach ($65) 作餐前飲品,原來 Shiqusa 是一款青檸特飲,據說入口酸酸甜甜的,味道清新怡人;而 Red Peach 就是 Awamori Cocktail,聽說泡盛酒是沖繩的特產,以特有的蒸餾法釀造,不過這杯 cocktail,酒精濃度不高,味道還是留待食友來品

先試兩款沖繩特色小吃,水雲醋物 ($50) 和自家製花生豆腐 ($55),前者水雲,又名海髮菜,是形狀有如髮絲的海藻,據說含豐富蛋白質,而這道醋漬物,味道酸咪咪的,非常醒胃;至於花生豆腐,口感軟綿中帶煙韌,花生味亦頗濃。

甜品重溫了沖繩雪糕伴黑糖年輪蛋糕 ($68),年輪蛋糕,吃起來雖未算濕潤鬆軟,但入口帶黑糖的焦香;而黑糖雪糕質感細滑,滿是黑糖的獨特甘甜。也品嚐了食友點的沖繩紅芋雪糕 ($40) 和沖繩鹽味曲奇雪糕 ($40),前者以紫心番薯製作,味道比紅豆雪糕清甜;而後者鹹甜交雜,滿載濃濃的沖繩特色,亦值得一試。

其實沖繩是日本唯一的亞熱帶地區,物產豐富,沖繩料理更是世界有名的美味健康菜,而這晚能一次過品嚐了多款沖繩特色美食,真是非常高興,在此再次感謝店方的熱情款待!

某天食友找我,說是有餐廳找了他去試食,然後問我有沒有興趣一起去,反正自己閒得發慌,很難得不用一個人去到處吃,當然是捨命陪君子了。知道沖繩的苦瓜很有名,所以就點了一客啤酒苦瓜漬。這個苦瓜沒有聞到啤酒的味道,吃起來亦不覺得有啤酒的苦澀味。苦瓜的味道一點也不苦,反而是有著蔬菜的清甜,質感相當的爽脆,有點像吃鹹酸菜但更爽口一點,蠻喜歡這個前菜的,如果啤酒味再強一點就更好了。雖然自己酷愛喝酒,但當天不是很想喝,看到這個Shiqusa的果汁名字沒有在別的地方吃過,就點了一杯來喝。一喝就立即愛上了,味道有點像青檸加柑桔,酸酸的帶著清香,很清新很怡人。也嚐了一下友人的芒果汁,感覺有點像某隻果汁軟糖,不是不好喝但非我所好。沖繩魚餅拼盤看起來應是魚蛋和墨魚餅兩種,吃起來也真的是這個味道,切成半圓的那個咬口很夠彈牙,味道鮮甜而且不會乾硬化。切片的咬口就較為煙韌,味道較淡,同樣也不會很乾身。味道來說並不差,但和泰式越式的同類拼盤比較,其實沒有太大分別。石垣牛炸薯餅外層炸得頗為金黃,裡面的薯蓉做得亦相當的幼細,味道倒是有點像吃黃肉蕃薯甜甜的也不錯,不過說好的石垣牛呢?只是有很少量的牛肉碎在裡面,故此肉味並不強,

沖繩AGU豬肉餃子薄餅其實不是薄餅,最少底下沒有餅,就是將六隻餃子放在鐵板上,再澆上醬汁和芝士,色澤上像薄餅但不是那回事就是。餃子的皮乾脆如餅乾,估計是煎過的餃子再拿去焗。餃子的餡是大路的豬肉加蒜,說到特別真的不算特別,面層酸酸甜甜的醬汁和芝士令其吃起來有點像薄餅,是其與眾不同之處。

串燒拼盤包括有長蔥雞串,雞肉棒,雞翼,青椒仔,青椒仔釀雞肉,冬菇,豬頸肉,沖繩黑豬肉,當中青椒兩種自己不能吃就交給友人了。冬菇串很夠大片,可能不是汁燒感覺不太夠香,亦有點乾身。雞串雞肉棒雞翼亦不是很特別,和一般的鹽燒串燒分別不大。倒是兩款豬肉串燒就不能不吃,豬肉口感相當爽口,因為肉裡夾雜著肥膏,燒起來當然更甘香可口。吃過豬肉串後我大概了解為何其他串燒不夠吸引,是較乾和較鹹兩個問題啊。

墨魚汁炒飯單看圖片好像有點過濕,但出來的成品又不是相像中那麼差,應該說比預期中好得多,飯粒粒粒分明有咬口,當中更有不少的墨魚粒在裡面,奇怪在其味道有點像臘腸。飯上的雞蛋本來應是窩蛋來的,但因為沒有立即吃而變成熟蛋,當吃到蛋下的炒飯時,沾有蛋汁的那堆飯特別美味,所以這個飯要盡快把蛋拌好才是最好吃的。

燻豬手外表金黃帶一點微焦,樣子相當吸引,咬下去〝卡擦〞一聲的很夠香脆,很有吃薯片的感覺。而豬手的肉質,其實也沒有肉質可言,因為裡面的全部都是骨膠原,一片啫喱狀的物體,並沒有實際的肉可言,故吃下去是黏黏的有油香而沒肉香,不過一隻豬手沒肉那怎樣走路的呢?

一頓豐富晚餐後不能沒有甜品作結,翻開餐牌看一下,就把全部雪糕都點下來,感覺這些雪糕都是自家製的,怎可以不試。

沖繩黑糖雪糕伴黑糖年輪蛋糕是在店方推介餐牌上,雪糕雖然用上黑糖,但甜度其實並不算很高,雪糕不算滑身,倒是比較硬身,如果和哈根大師比,其實是沒法相比的,但總不能要求自家製的雪糕和大廠相比。年輪蛋糕質感是結實的,黑糖的味道相當的突出,有點接近焦糖的味道,當然也會甜一些,牛油的香味則不算濃,但還是不錯的。

鹽味曲奇雪糕是比較普通的一款,燈光較暗下用肉眼看,其實和黑糖雪糕有點難分辨出來,吃起來就有明顯不同。這雪糕的曲奇不是朱古力那隻,是啡黃色像茶餅的味道,即是木糠布丁那種,當然沒有朱古力那麼濃香。故此不細心品嚐,會覺得像是一般的雲呢拿雪糕,裡面的冰塊還有點多。

紅芋雪糕顏色像帶紫的粉紅,頗好看的。紅芋的味道不算很強,在雪糕裡可以吃到粒粒的紅芋粒,證明真材實料,不過和某北海道雪糕相比,蕃薯味還是有點失色。

大眾都知道日本的和牛很有名,但中國人明明吃豬比較多,是次吃到不少由沖繩豬肉做的料理,感覺絕對不會比和牛來得差,那甜美我覺得和牛亦比不上的,試吃一下這個AGU豬,相信會有不少人跳槽的。

近來, 我瘋狂地愛上沖繩這個地方, 暫時不能親自飛往該地享受冬日陽光冬日樂園, 唯有留在香港找尋一下沖繩味道。經朋友介紹得知…原來位於中環蘭桂坊好利商業大廈4樓有間食沖繩料理的樓上舖, 店內環境優雅亦帶幾分型格, 燈光柔和, 還播著悠揚的英文樂曲, 感覺上是把酒談心的好地方, 是與樓下那一眾酒吧那種熱鬧澎湃氣氛大有分別。樂宴也有一間分店在銅鑼灣, 而他們也是與「宴‧尖沙咀EN‧TST」屬同一集團。自家製花生豆腐 $55滑溜溜的豆腐只帶輕量的花生味道, 質感濃郁帶有奶油的稠身, 不過彈力稍遜。燻豬手 $68送上檯已聞到好香的煙燻味, 一碟只得兩隻豬手仔, 而本身味道頗淡, 吃時是需要用附上的柚子醬油來調味;豬手皮脆亦有些位置巳燻煮至黏黏膠質, 而軟骨亦已烤到軟糯起膠。玉子煮豬肉 $65溫泉蛋的蛋黃味道濃郁, 蛋白亦滑不溜手;五花腩豬肉炆得時間足夠, 脂肪呈透明, 吃著軟嫩來, 豬皮亦被炆出變化來, 膠質浮現, 吃得嘴巴黏黏, 味道是以甜為主, 肉質也很鬆化。沖繩風昆布炒豬肉 $58昆布集軟、滑於一身, 充斥著海藻那樣的草青味道;廚師在烹調這個餸是著重吃它們本身的味道, 只不過略略加糖來提

芝士辣茄汁雜肉飯 $78
是一味差點錯過的沖繩料理, 讀了它的英文名字 Famous Okinawa Taco Rice才恍然大悟它其實就是「塔可飯」, 據聞WWII後有大量美軍在沖繩駐守, 因而衍生了這個既美味又飽肚的沖繩料理。樂宴的塔可飯的味道是辣中帶酸, 食得出有紅腰豆蓉、蕃茄、洋蔥、雜肉碎等材料煮成的肉醬汁, 再加上芝士碎、生菜絲及蕃茄粒, 飯也非圓滾滾的珍珠米, 的確好有墨西哥風味~

苦瓜煮豬肉 $78
食沖繩料理又怎能不吃苦瓜哩! 我知道沖繩料理的烹調方法通常是細火慢煮, 兼清清的味道, 不過當晚的苦瓜煮豬肉竟出現廣東菜的「鑊氣」, 味道較濃兼多油。

首次嚟到蘭桂坊嘅樂宴,同樓下蘭桂坊嘅街景好唔同,滿街酒吧都喺人,有收咗工嚟飲吓酒嘅,有遊客嚟見識吓嘅,但上到位於商業大廈內嘅樂宴,感覺唔同晒,環境較為靜焗,少咗份嘈雜聲,上嚟飲嘢嘅人都較為斯文,雖然唔似一般日式居酒屋咁熱鬧,但靜靜焗焗傾吓偈又幾唔錯。裝修喺一貫嘅和風,深啡木枱板椅,不少日式海報,吧位及一邊牆身擺放好多酒樽,泡盛、燒酎、清酒……等,枱櫈間亦比較闊落,坐得鬆動,較為特別喺附設露台位,對下就喺蘭桂坊。坐咗成晚,見佢客路主要都喺外國人同少部份日本人,並且飲酒居多,食嘢其次,所以侍應都比較清閒啲,我哋一遞手就有侍應即時前嚟招呼。今晚所見,有兩個侍應,一個外藉女侍應,另一個似喺日藉男侍應,唔算得上招待熱情,但服務都唔錯!啤酒苦瓜漬 $45苦瓜喺沖繩名物,所以揀嚟啤酒苦瓜漬作第一道開胃前菜,苦瓜細細碟賣$45貫徹日本嘢嘅高檔呀,苦瓜咬落幾爽,唔喺好覺苦,不過啤酒味就唔多明顯。花生豆腐 $55曾經食過一次,印象猶深,所以今次有機會,自然想跟佢再重逢。睇樣就被佢呃晒,以為佢好嫩滑,同一般豆腐無分別,一夾你就知好唔同。質感黏黏糯糯富彈性,有啲似糯米糍,花生香會隨隨滲出,唔太濃,帶點微甜,驚

沖繩AGU豬肉餃子薄餅 $78

AGU豬又喺沖繩另一名物,綽號夢幻之豬,喺沖繩原有嘅貴重品牌豬,據說豬種晌600年前仍叫琉球王國時代跟中國有貿易而傳入。有大理石紋理、肉質甘香、甜美嫩滑喺佢嘅特徵。先唔好講啲豬肉,依個偽薄餅嘅餃子薄餅本身都幾有創意,一客6隻餃子煎好後再放晌鐵板,加芝士再焗,餃子皮食落確有啲似薄批嘅感覺
,而內餡豬肉肉汁豐盈,肉餡鬆化,唔錯喎!

跟德國鹹豬手好唔同,沖繩風燻豬手皮下脂肪頗多,凝固成骨膠原蛋白,食得人滿咀都喺,油香滋味,實際上就無乜肉,幸好外皮燒得香脆,佐酒嘅好朋友

墨魚汁炒飯 $78

呈全黑色嘅墨魚汁炒飯,唔好以為個飯好濕,啱啱相反,個飯炒得飯粒分明挺乾身
,只喺啲墨魚汁令個飯閃爧有光澤,錯覺以為濕黏黏。啲飯食落有墨魚味,除咗墨汁之效外,因為飯內仲有啲墨魚一齊同炒,雖然唔多,但已添加份口感性
。至於飯面嘅太陽蛋,外觀大於實際,因為晌黑漆漆嘅墨汁飯之上,特別搶眼,可惜蛋黃已接迎全凝固,仲期望影張流心蛋黃嘅相添!雖然喺咁,但個飯整體都好好食,值得推薦

沖繩雪糕拼黑糖年輪蛋糕 $68

甜品選擇唔多,只有沖繩風冬甩、3款沖繩雪糕及一款雪糕拼年輪蛋糕組合。淡粉紅嘅沖繩紅芋雪糕,富牛奶香而蕃薯味不俗,但不知何解,雪糕內有好多碎冰
,好影響個雪糕嘅軟滑度;黑糖年輪蛋糕外觀好靚,「年輪」一層又一層,蛋糕唔算好鬆軟,但一層層嘅年輪紋帶有黑糖焦香,頗突出呀

短期內試到兩次沖繩料理,有啲走運嘅感覺,兩次都品嚐到唔同嘅特色沖繩菜。仲見Asia Gateway共同觀光說明會搞咗個日韓食飯贏機票,8間日式或韓式食店,食飯有機會贏到飛往釜山或福岡雙人來回機票各一套
,可惜個推廣期好短,11/3-31/3
,中環樂宴喺其中一間(但銅鑼灣店唔喺),就算唔喺搏張機票,一嚐沖繩菜都喺唔錯。再次多謝餐廳招待!
