The best Pessen in Ginza Edo is revived

[Mapo ★] January 21, 2016 16:00

 

The best Pesen in Ginza Edo is the standard of Tokyo famous confectionery.
There are many people who have eaten it once.

 

In 1997, Petersen's Edo-ichi opened goodwill.
I grated it, and that long-established candy, Taro Sakae, made it.
It seems that he has been resurrected.

 

I'm a Kansai person, so I don't miss it very much.
The cans of this Eiffel Tower are recognizable.
You may have got it as a souvenir from somewhere.

 

You can buy it not only at Sakae Taro's Nihonbashi Main Store, but also at Haneda Airport and Tokyo Station.
In Ginza, it can be purchased at the Matsuya Ginza store until the end of February.

I bought a box where you can enjoy three flavors, shrimp, salt, and cheese.

It goes well with white wine, and it's gone quickly.

Ginza Marukees' high heel chocolate

[Mapo ★] January 18, 2016 09:00

After having lunch with a friend in Ginza on this day, we had lunch.
I went to Markeys at 8-chome Nishi Ginza-dori for the first time in 9 years.

 

This shop is famous for its Eclair, but it's a good place.
In fact, this high heel chocolate is so delicious and cute.
The price of 1,000 yen (excluding tax) for three is the same as 9 years ago.
The size is about 3 to 4 centimeters each.

 

I couldn't buy it because it was sold out.
I made a reservation on the spot and came back a week later.

 

There are three kinds of white, bitter, and milk.
Alazan in the shoe decoration is also like a jewel.

The chocolate itself is hard and firm, but it's hard.
As soon as you put it in your mouth, it melts smoothly and quickly,
You can feel the moderate flavor of cacao.
The taste of chocolate spreads in your mouth.

High heel chocolate is palm size and
It seems that you can order the actual size as well.

 

If you receive such a present, you can wear it on the spot (laughs).

By the way, this small chocolat 3 and 6 contains
It seems difficult to buy unless you make a reservation.
It is likely to heat up in February and March, so as soon as possible.★

The main one was Chinese cabbage, some risotto, and fish dishes, but I forgot it.
Both were cream sauces, so I failed to choose the menu.
It was delicious, so let's try it.

Desserts are brought by wagons and I want to eat them all (laughs).
That's why I can do everything little by little, so it's decided!
