I've been in Tokyo for a while and like to walk, hike, and now run around town. These days, my goal is cake, so I've visited numerous shops. I thought I'd track my running and introduce and review some shops and cake in Tokyo (or possibly beyond).

Research run around Tokyo Station:
Today was a no-cake day to make up for yesterday's cake-off, so I did some research around Tokyo station: Marunouchi Jean-Paul Hévin to Viron (where they do have their chocolate cake that I might need for the next cake-off) to the new Kyobashi Toshi Yoroizuka, to Ginza Mitsukoshi to Le Chocolat de H, where I got a Vanille (a vanilla macaron; 250 yen), because I couldn't remember which chocolate macaron I had had before. Total run was about 12 km (I ended at the Lawson 100 to top-up on tofu and yogurt) averaging 11 km/h.
The macaron was excellent. It's on the small side and a little on the dry, hard side in the sense that the outside has a crispness but the center still has some softness. I prefer this type to ones that are allowed to get really soft throughout.
