“DOUASSYU” : A perfect restaurant for a surprise!

A restaurant I want to recommend to someone looking for a place to do a nice surprise for a birthday or anniversary is “DOUASSYU”, a French restaurant in Shinsaibashi.

In addition to the delicious French dishes, the desserts, created by the amazing patissier, are both delicious in taste and fantastic to look at.

We arrived around 1pm for lunch.

We were seated at a table with a nice amount of natural light.

The cute pumpkin at the corner of the table made me smile.

One of the goals for this visit is to try their famous shrimp cream croquette.
When we begged and pleaded for it, they agreed to offer it to us as a special lunch menu.

Foie gras flan.

Cheese bread

A terrine of Fugu hot pot as an appetizer.

Shrimp cream croquette

They delicious, with the cream packed with the amazing shrimp aroma.

The vegetables offered at DOUASSYU are all seasonally fresh, most of them directly shipped from the farms. Therefore, their natural flavores are even more enhanced when paired with meats and fish.

Steamed (conger eel, foie gras, daikon radish)

The fish course features fatty Spanish mackerel.

Perilla and lemon Granite to cleanse the pallate.

We selected Wagyu for the main dish.

When I chewed the meat, the savoriness of the meat overflowed in my mouth.
The accompanying vegetables also had strong flavors, and matched perfectly with the meat.

A little taste of Japanese.

Unexpected Matsutake mushroom rice at a French restaurant.
The rice with a combination of the mellow flavors of Matsutake mushrooms and the juices was simply exquisite.

Lastly, the long awaited dessert time.
The first item was a blue cheese creme d’anjou.

We expected the distinctive smell of blue cheese, but were pleasantly surprised by its smooth taste.

I also really liked its mousse-like smooth texture.
It was so delicious that I wished they would offer this on their regular dessert menu.

Then, the main dessert.

It was a “strawberry milk” cake that I had pre-ordered.

The strawberry mousse wrapped in chocolate, and topped with milk ice cream.

It was an amazing strawberry cake, which was beautiful to look at even from the side.

The sweet and sour flavors of the strawberries spread all over mouth.
So yummmmmmyyyyy!

It was a delicious mousse cake that brought out the full flavors of the strawberries.

Everything was so delicious. Thanks for a great meal!

To finish, 3 kinds of baked snacks.

I fully enjoyed them with a cup of lemony herbal tea.

I was overwhelmed not just by the taste of the dishes, but also their presentation.

I took a picture with the patissier.
I am looking forward to your great work in the future.

Thanks to the chef and the patissier for the amazing food and desserts.
It is a perfect restaurant for a special occasion, like birthdays and anniversaries.
