平日雨の日、12時半頃電話して、30分後の予約がとれました。ラッキー。 席についたら、冷たいお茶か温かいお茶か聞いてくれました。優しい… 日替わりランチは、メイン料理を選ぶ方式。 チキンソテーの味噌にんにくガッツリ揚げ(だったかな?)をチョイス。 ご飯が進む濃ゆい味付け、最高。 ちなみに古代米が売り切れていたので白米でした。 ご飯と味噌汁は、お値段そのままで、少なめ普通大盛りを選べるのが嬉しい。 お料理はどれも全部美味しかったです。 発酵料理って、こんなに優しくて多様な味付けにできるもんなんだ…と感動。 お店の雰囲気と装飾も素晴らしいですね。 小さくて可愛いお花がたくさん飾られていて、ほっこりしました。 この辺に来たらまた絶対寄らせていただきます。 ご馳走様でした。

発酵薬膳ということで、健康志向の女性に人気の様で、1人席は空いていたのですが、2人席が空くのを10分程待ちました。茹で豚の野菜甘味噌ソース掛けを頂きました。日替わりは全て¥1200ということでしたが、古代米は残念ながら売り切れでした。古代米なら、価値ありそうですが、白米なら、姉妹店のビュッフェスタイルの杜の食堂の方が良さそうです。

平日の13時半頃に予約無しでランチをいただく。薬膳ランチは4種類から選べる。また火曜日に毎週のカレーメニューが変わる。落ちついた雰囲気で圧倒的に女性のお客様が多い。男性1人でももちろんOK。ボリュームたっぷりでご飯はこの時期は栗ご飯にも変更可能です。居心地の良さと食事の満足感でごちそうさまです。

平日の13時前に来店したところ、満席で少しだけ待ちましたが、入口付近にベンチがあり、座って待てました。 味噌汁やごはんの大盛りが追加料金無しで注文出来、またご飯は白米と古代米が選べるようです。古代米は売り切れになることも多いようで、今回選べたのは白米のみでした。 『発酵薬膳』の名の通り、野菜多めの定食が食べられます。 今回は試していませんが、米粉や豆腐を使ったスイーツも充実しており、機会を改めてまた行きたいと思いました。
