Turning the Hotel Into a Place to “Upgrade Oneself”
At LIVELY HOTELS, we strive to redefine the concept of hotels as places to “update oneself,” rather than merely functional spaces for sleeping. Our brand concept focuses on providing “experiential value” to guests, allowing them to gain some form of personal enhancement through their stay. Particularly, our flagship brand, “THE LIVELY,” aims to redefine the hotel as a gathering place for people, information, and opportunities from around the world. We aspire to offer a guest experience filled with stimulation and new discoveries with each visit. Therefore, we not only welcome staying guests but also provide opportunities for local residents and those interested in our hotel to visit and enjoy our facilities.
Packed with seasonal flavors! A new-style dessert by a French chef with 20 years of experience is now available.
At THE LIVELY OSAKA HONMACHI, we embrace the concept of “Emode” (Emotional × Mode), offering original hotel desserts to introduce a new kind of hotel stay experience through cuisine. These desserts, crafted by a French chef with 20 years of experience, combine the latest trends with a classic touch. They are not only visually stunning and worthy of capturing in photos but also feature authentic flavors infused with the chef’s passion for French culinary excellence.
This autumn, we are introducing a unique hybrid dessert called “Secret de Pomme” (French for “The Secret of the Apple”), which blends the essence of French pastry with Japanese sweets, featuring the season’s star fruit—the apple. This charmingly plump red apple may look like a real apple at first glance, but it is actually a mousse cake inspired by the traditional French dessert “Tarte Tatin.” When sliced, a rich caramel sauce flows out, complementing the compote mousse that is infused with the essence of apple. Together, they create a taste experience reminiscent of the caramelized apples found in a Tarte Tatin. Enjoy it with a waffle filled with slow-cooked apple and chestnut paste, adding texture and flavor that brings you closer to the traditional Tarte Tatin yet with a novel twist. Accompanying the dessert are cube-shaped yokan (Japanese jellies) made with purple sweet potato and pumpkin, offering a gentle sweetness and depth of flavor that bring a hint of Japanese tradition to the dish.
This autumn, indulge in the new hybrid dessert at THE LIVELY OSAKA HONMACHI showcasing the brilliance of our French chef’s creativity—a dessert experience you can’t find anywhere else.
From December to the end of January 2025, “Secret de Pomme” will be available in variations perfect for Christmas and the winter season. In February 2025, it will be tailored for Valentine’s Day. Whether as a delightful treat for seasonal events or a new menu to enjoy each season for our repeat guests, there is something to look forward to every time.
