Chiba, Japan｜UMI Lab Chiba store

Sooooo good. Just come here you wont regret！

It's very cozy and clean. I like the atmosphere, interiors.

The store is easily accessible from either Chiba Station or Shin-Chiba Station, and the interior has a clean cafe-like atmosphere that makes it easy to enter. Here you can enjoy luxurious menus using seafood such as sea urchin, salmon roe, and oysters at reasonable prices. It has a stylish feel and is open from noon, so you can enjoy lunch as well. We also have all-you-can-drink courses, so you can use it for drinking parties with a large number of people. The menu I ordered this time is like this. ・Carlsberg 660 yen I had a beer as usual. ・Fragranceful potato salad 638 yen A potato salad with a faint smoky flavor. It contains finely chopped Iburigakko, which gives it a nice texture. This potato salad is perfect as a snack with alcohol. ・UMI carpaccio 1309 yen You can enjoy a variety of seafood with luxurious carpaccio topped with shrimp, salmon, squid, salmon roe, etc. It was topped with a lemon-flavored dressing with a hint of truffle. ・5 kinds of oyster dishes 2508 yen An assortment of 5 types of oysters: raw, grilled, steamed, marinated in oil, and sea urchin ponzu sauce. It was a very luxurious dish where you could taste and compare oysters with different textures and flavors depending on the cooking method. In particular, the raw oysters were large, plump, and very delicious. ・Fried octopus with basil sauce 759 yen Freshly fried piping hot octopus. The batter was crispy, and the basil sauce on top gave it a Western-style flavor. It has a strong flavor so it goes well with alcohol. ・Hokkaido raw oysters 659 yen/Hyogo prefecture raw oysters 659 yen They have raw oysters from Iwate, Hokkaido, and Hyogo, and this time I tried comparing the raw oysters from Hokkaido and Hyogo. The oysters from Hokkaido were creamy, large and delicious. Additionally, the summer oysters from Hyogo have a strong ocean flavor, making them irresistible for oyster lovers. I was very surprised at how different the taste and texture was depending on the region of origin. ・Seared salmon salmon roe bowl 1,713 yen It's a bowl of rice topped with chunks of thick, fatty salmon. When I ate it with a splash of wasabi and soy sauce, I could really feel the flavor of the salmon, and the bubble-like texture of the salmon roe was amazing. Also, since it has egg yolk on it, breaking it and eating it with salmon will make it richer and even more delicious. At the end, I added the mentaiko that came with it, poured some tea over it, and enjoyed it smoothly, like ochazuke. ・Long sushi half (crab/sea urchin salmon roe) 1,814 yen This is one of the restaurant's specialty menus. The half size sushi includes salmon, shrimp avocado, cherry shrimp, whitebait, horse sashimi yukke (+100 yen), oyster salmon roe (+100 yen), sea urchin salmon roe (+100 yen), and crab (+200 yen). You can choose two types of toppings to put on it. This time, I chose the luxurious sea urchin salmon roe and crab. In addition, the crab is loosened, so you can enjoy it refreshingly by eating it with vinegared rice. Also, the sea urchin was rich and went well with the salmon roe, which was delicious. ・Roasted Basque cheesecake 803 yen It's the shop's recommended dessert, and the staff will grill the rare cheese on top on a burner right in front of you. The creamy, slightly fragrant and refreshing rare cheese matched the different tastes of the rich cheesecake underneath, and it was very delicious.
