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).

Tuesday: Un Grand Pas
As predicted, I got cake from Un Grand Pas again, since the first was very good and interesting and this may be my last chance for a while. This time was Périgord, perhaps, guessing from the Japanese, for 450 yen. This is caramelized hazelnuts and walnuts. The top and bottom are pretty hard, like a nougat, but brittle enough to cut easily. Also, it is pretty sweet, which I don't mind, but would get tired of in every cake. Very good. Now I just have to wait for them to visit Isetan again in a year or two.
