Valentine's Day is here to stay
That was one happy Valentine's Day! I got a lot of good chocolate, and also cakes, including the Mary's and Readymade collaboration CD set that I'm collecting for the 3rd year! I also couldn't resist to buy a bit to add to the lot, like I do every year.
Tokyo is wonderful for chocolate lovers, especially just before Valentine's day, as some of the best chocolate from all over the world makes it right here.
Clockwise from top-left:
- Laderach (Switzerland)
- Van Dender (Belgium)
- Demel (Austria)
- Bel Amer (Meguro, Tokyo, Japan)
- Mary's (Tokyo, Japan)
- Grand Place (Belgium) in a box together with Fukumitsuya (Kanazawa, Japan) dried mango cholcolates
And not pictured, as they're already "gone":
- K. Vincent (Kagurazaka, Tokyo, Japan) chocolate cakes and truffe
- Imperial Hotel (Tokyo, Japan) small bitter chocolate bar
- a nice homemade macaron
We're sure to have chocolate stock for a little while, but be assured that this won't last very long. :)

aiちゃん！！お久しぶりだね！
ちょうど今日はaiちゃんのことが思い付いたよ。多分ゴールデンエッグスのことを考えて、それでaiちゃんの物まねを思い出したかな？ハハ
いっぱいチョコもらってよかったんじゃない！
日本のバレンタインって他の国とちょっと違うけど、チョコ好きな男としては気に入ってる！

Oui ils sont très beaux! Hier on a mangé le rose. On est pas sûr quel animal c'est, on dit que c'est un cochon à cause de sa couleur. Pauvre cochon, mais il était très bon. :)
