[Weekdays only] Shanghai Crab Course | Directly connected to Tameike-Sanno Station (Tokyo, Akasaka) THE CAPITOL HOTEL TOKYU [Official]

The "Shanghai Crab Course" is now available for the first time, allowing you to fully enjoy the autumn seasonal treat of "Shanghai Crab"

This autumn, the long-awaited "Shanghai Crab Course" will be available for the first time at Star Hill. The main dish is "Shanghai Crab Meatballs and Dried Yoshikiri Shark Tail Fin Braised with Shark Fin". This dish is made by combining carefully shredded Shanghai crab with shark fin and slowly simmering it in chicken broth. At the beginning of the season, we use female crabs carrying eggs, allowing you to enjoy their rich and full-bodied flavor. The season for Shanghai crabs is the "Double Ninth Festival", one of the five Chinese seasonal festivals, when people admire chrysanthemums, which are said to extend life, and enjoy sake with chrysanthemum flowers floating in it. Enjoy the autumn blessings from the continent while praying for longevity and good health.
