Quil Fait Bon

Little did we know, Quil Fait Bon tarts are actually quite famous in Japan. As soon as you walk into their cafe, it’s easy to see why they are famous. All of the tarts and cakes look absolutely amazing. It’s hard to resist the temptation to try everything, but somehow we managed.

The last time we visited their Daikanyama location, it was a 45 minute wait around 3pm. I couldn’t believe how popular this place was amongst couples and girlfriends. Needless to say, the tarts lived up to the hype. The seasonal grape tart & the mango tart were my favorite! (The mango tart is not pictured above). I also loved the sweet potato tart which was a seasonal tart in the Autumn time (shown in the bottom picture). You can purchase the tarts by the slice or a full tart/cake.

{  Le Souffle  }

Le Souffle in Hiroo is the first genuine souffle restaurant I’ve ever been too. As soon as you enter, you imediately feel as though you’ve walked into a classic restraunt that’s been around for ages. This restaurant serves both lunch and dinner but we went only for the dessert.

Who knew there was so many different types of souffles?! Vanilla, Citrus, Mint, Amande, Grand-Marier, Cassis, Coconuts, etc. We went with the Vanilla since it was our first time. It takes 20 minutes to make from the time you order. The wait went by quickly as I sipped on a latte and looked forward to trying the dessert. Once ready, the fluffiest picture perfect souffle i’ve ever seen was brought to our table. I hope the photo taken with my iPhone does it justice because it was art that came to the table. The souffle was so delicate, as soon as you put a spoon through it, it deflated. It wasn’t too sweet – which allowed me to finish the hot and fluffy souffle very quickly.

Love that they have instructions on how to eat it a souffle properly :)

本格的なスフレが楽しめる数少ないお店の一つが広尾にあるル・スフレです。本物のスフレが頂けるレストランに来たのはこれが初めてでした。お店はクラシカルで歴史を感じるただずまいです。ランチもディナーもやっていますが、私たちはデザート/お茶目的で来店しました。

メニューを見て驚いたのは様々な種類のスフレがある事でした。バニラ、シトラス、ミント、アーモンド、オレンジリキュール、カシス、ココナッツetc. 今回が初めてだった事もあり、王道のバニラを注文しました。オーダーしてから20分かかりますが、実際そこまで長くは感じませんでした。テーブルに運ばれてきたスフレは、今まで見たこともない程のふわふわ感でまさにアートでした。iPhoneで撮影した写真でそれが伝わると良いのですが… スフレはとてもデリケートでスプーンを入れるとすぐにしぼんでしまう程。熱々でふわふわのスフレは甘すぎず、あっという間に完食してしまいました。

親切にスフレの食べ方の説明書きがありました！
