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).

Frédéric Cassel, Planifolia
Did a run to Frédéric Cassel in Ginza Mitsukoshi, going for the second of three new cakes for the month. Was able to get one, Planifolia, as in vanilla. This is white chocolate vanilla mousse with strawberry (inside as well) accented with raspberry, and two kinds of biscuit. I really like white chocolate, the vanilla is good, the fruit harmonizes well without taking over, and the biscuits are excellent, though I'm not sure what they are; rather crispy in a cookie-like way, so maybe one is shortbread? Definitely excellent. This is the other small version of one of the two main Christmas cakes. Still would like to get the strawberry tart.
