Pierre Hermé: Mille-feuille Infiniment Vanille

Felt better today than earlier in the week, so I'm more optimistic. First, I went to Isetan Pierre Hermé and got the Mille-feuille Infiniment Vanille. For running, I did the latest version of my Central-East Sendagaya neighborhood course (okay, I'm lying: I deviated to a parallel road at one point, which added 25 meters, but it wasn't a place I needed practice on). I was slower than I expected, even with more pauses than usual for maneuvering cars and the amount of stairs and slopes: 8 km/h. I only ran about 7 km, but I feel I can raise and the speed tomorrow. I guess I'll try to hit the Marunouchi/Ginza area south of Tokyo Station, but Pierre Hermé doesn't change their line up until next Tuesday and JPH is also showing no changes on their home page, so it might be too early to do the rounds to find out what the new cakes are for December.

The Mille-feuille Infiniment Vanille was reliably delicious, especially after recent experience but they are dependable that way, which is why I rate them highly for a place for new cakes. I'll call this one Excellent, though that might be overly based on my preference for mille-feuille cakes.
