Our stay at St Regis Osaka. One flaw (and a rather big one) was that they screwed up on a restaurant reservation made on our behalf. We arrived at the restaurant all excited but was finally turned away. Turned out they booked us at another place by mistake. By then it was too late to head over to that place as lunch time was almost over :/ St Regis made it up however by offering us a fully paid meal at their own restaurant (which is actually quite highly rated) and even covered the wine (which we didn't expect). Food was pretty good and so was the wine. Apologies accepted! They also sent coffee and chocs to our room the next day as an extra gesture. 气消了～Regis also has a nice chill lounge. Below, just bumming around the streets and trying for the first time teppanyaki abalone!
Lunch at Ippoh Honten Edobori*, a tempura restaurant which has been awarded 1 star for consecutive years since 2010. Private room with private cook freshly frying up tempuras in front of us. Pretty good. Except the fact that I had a really serious bout of allergy attack right after leaving the restaurant. Nothing to do with them at all. S was perfectly fine. For me it might have been the prawns, or maybe the oil...I don't know. Happened before at another fine tempura place. *confused*
Chanced upon Xmas markets near the Osaka main station. Lovely atmosphere~ And this marks the end of our Niseko-Osaka trip!
