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).

Rose Bakery: Ricotta Cheesecake
Was trying to get something else, but it wasn't available but I felt busy, so I still wanted to get something at Isetan. That gave me a couple choices of quite fine shops to get a third cake from. I decide to go with Rose Bakery. I had my best previous luck with a cheesecake from, so this time I chose the Ricotta Cheesecake. It was different and good, but not enough that I need to go back. And of course, they aren't trying to be a patisserie, so they aren't really my focus anyway.

Thursday: Rose Bakery [Isetan]
Holiday, but I'm busy, so no running. Went to Isetan in the afternoon and was able to get the timing to allow getting seated at Rose Bakery (around 6 pm on a midweek holiday). Along with tea and hot cocoa, we got Trifle for 527+8% tax and Chocolate Cheese Cake for 574 + 8% tax
The cheese cake is excellent if you like chocolate and cheesecake, which I do (although I can see that I could quickly get tired of this), and this is dense, not a mousse--very American. Not something I need everyday, but not something as common around here as in the U.S., so I'm got to find it handy.
Trifle seems to be a light chocolate cake with the cream already in there, also almonds and chestnuts. It's good, but fluffier than I'm interested in.
