My Actifit Report Card: January 4 2024| Talk about a casual dim sum meal./カジュアルな飲茶・点心をいただいたお話/[ENG/JPN]
The article in Japanese is in the second half.★日本語の記事は後半にあります。
I would like to write an article about my recent trip to eat dim sum with my seniors at work.
Dim sum" is a light snack or pastry of Chinese cuisine. Yumcha" refers to the style of eating dim sum while drinking Chinese tea.
It is a traditional custom in Guangdong Province and Hong Kong, and is said to have started during the Tang Dynasty.
I had a strong impression of "Mr. Yum Cha," which was operated by Mister Donut, a Japanese doughnut shop, and I always had the image of having a small Chinese dish in a stylish and casual manner....
What I went to eat this day was a dim sum style lunch operated by a famous local izakaya.
It was the first time for me and my senior to visit this restaurant.
First came the appetizers of salad and pickles served in colorful squares.
Then, hot tea was also brought, which we immediately enjoyed.
Drinking hot tea warms the stomach and gives you energy.
The appetizer of steamed chicken and cucumber salad was delicious.
These small squares are carried by the waiter on a long, thin board.
The sight was quite splendid, but I did not take a picture of it.
I wanted to show it to you all, but I felt it would be rude to take a picture, so I couldn't.
(I wanted to show it to everyone, but I felt it would have been rude not to take a picture of it. (Maybe I should have asked him if I could take a picture of it.)
The main items were served in a square.
Slightly larger sized items such as the small basket arrived at the table in a seiro.
The lunch menu was very generous in its number of items!
Six kinds of dim sum in squares and a small basket in a seiro. And cold Chinese noodles.
Some of the menu items were rare, as we rarely eat them.
The lovely arrangement of the dishes was satisfying and pleasing to the eye.
Serving food in small dishes like this is a hint for how to serve food in everyday life.
In Japan, there is also a culture of serving small amounts of food on small plates or bean plates to enjoy the beauty of the plate and the color of the food.
The restaurant I went to at that time is no longer there, and it seems to have moved to another location and newly opened.
I would like to go there again when I have a chance and enjoy an elegant lunch.
■diary with a few words
It is said that warm weather will continue from New Year's Day to the latter half of this week.
But this weekend we will start entering the "coldest part of the Japanese winter".
I am worried because coronavirus infections are beginning to spread again, along with seasonal flu, around me.
Japanese★ここから日本語でお送りいたします。
先日、会社の先輩と点心を食べに行ったことを記事にしようと思います。
「点心」は中華料理の軽食や菓子のこと。「飲茶」は中国茶を飲みながら点心を食べるスタイルのこと。
広東省や香港などの伝統的な習慣で、唐の時代から始まったと言われています。
私はミスタードーナツがやっていた「ミスター飲茶」がとにかく印象が強くて、おしゃれに、かつカジュアルに小さな中華料理の一品料理をいただく…というイメージがずっとありました。
この日食べに行ったのは、地元で有名な居酒屋さんが運営している飲茶形式のランチです。
初めて行ってみました。
まず最初に、カラフルな升に盛り付けられた前菜のサラダやピクルスが運ばれてきました。
そして、温かいお茶も運ばれてきたので、早速いただきます。
温かいお茶を飲むと胃が温まって元気が出ます。
前菜の蒸し鶏ときゅうりのサラダは美味しかったです。
これらの小さな升を、店員さんが細長い板に乗せて運んできます。
その姿はなかなか見事だったのですが、撮影していません。
皆さんにお見せしたかったけれど、撮影するのは失礼な気がして撮れませんでした。
(撮ってもいいですか?って聞けばよかったかな)
升に盛り付けられた状態で提供されるものがメインでした。
少し大きいサイズの小籠包などは、せいろに入れた状態でテーブルに到着しました。
ランチメニューなのに、品数が多く、豪華でした!
升に入った点心6種類と、せいろの小籠包。そして冷製中国風ヌードル。
普段は滅多に食べないメニューなので、珍しかったのもありました。
可愛い盛り付けは、目で楽しむこともできて満足しました。
こういう感じで小さな器に盛り付けするのは、普段の料理の盛り付けのヒントになります。
日本にも小皿、豆皿に少量ずつ盛り付け、お皿の美しさと食品の彩りを楽しむ文化があります。
この時行ったお店は今はなくて、別の場所に移転して新しくオープンしたようです。
また機会があったら行って、優雅なランチを楽しみたいです。
■ひとこと日記
お正月から今週後半までは温かい日が続くらしいです。
でも、今週末から「日本の冬の一番寒い時期」に入っていきます。
私の周囲では季節性インフルエンザと共に、再びコロナが流行し始めていて不安です。
Google Translate & DeepL, thank you as always.
I am glad that you read it :-)
今日も読んでくださってありがとうございます😊

ミスター飲茶懐かしい!
私も一昨年の結婚記念日に飲茶を食べに行きましたが、すぐにお腹いっぱいになってしまって悔しかった思い出があります😂
その気持ちわかります。
すぐお腹いっぱいになってしまうと、もっとたくさん食べることができたらあれもこれも食べられるのに!
という子どもの頃の気持ちに戻ってしまいます(^^)
ミスター飲茶は1回だけ学生時代に行ったことがあって、感動でした(笑)
