Toshi Yoroizuka: MT Chocolat

I felt better today and tried running, though maybe not a great idea. We'll see if I'm still okay tomorrow. Didn't even bother timing myself (though regretted not remembering my watch for the blinking safety light). Sort of wander there, after passing through Gaien, which was lit up for a festival celebrating the trees.

At midtown, I got MT Chocolat, which I had avoided until now, though I hadn't remembered why. The answer is bananas, ack. I should have gotten the chestnut shortcake, even though I don't much appreciate shortcake-style Japanese cakes. Anyway, it was not bad but bananas are usually a bad idea, raw bananas more so, and I'm not sure I've ever had any good cake with banana and chocolate, which this one did not break. There was not that much banana in it, just a thin layer, but was enough to leave a banana after taste. The probably is not that I hate bananas, just I associate them with breakfast and yogurt, so they are spoiled (so to speak) for all other usages.
