No running but Patisserie Bigarreaux (at Isetan): Maskotte

No running today (running takes time and I've got other things to do, like prepare curry and try to make paneer for the first time).

Cake was from Patisserie Bigarreaux (パティスリービガロー), in Setagaya (世田谷), who are featured at Shinjuku Isetan (伊勢丹), of course (it's Wednesday, new featured patisserie at Ma Patisserie (マ・パティスリー) day), which does not seem to have a home page, which I was counting on for getting the name of the cake. Anyway, I've been back and it was Maskotte (マスコット); it's three layers of sponge with thin layers of cream on top of each and nuts. I've read the other layers have hazelnuts with cream, but the top layer is definitely almonds and the fruit flavor is orange, which I (sometimes) like in cake. It was 500 yen. Very good. Definitely worth further investigation.

No pictures yet, but I'm still in test mode on this blog.
