Tokyo Station Hotel: A Centenary Celebration of Elegance
This year, the iconic Tokyo Station Hotel, located at Marunouchi 1-9-1, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, proudly celebrates its 110th anniversary. As part of the festivities, the hotel’s elegant lobby lounge presents two exquisite desserts featuring fresh raspberries from Gojome Town in Akita Prefecture. Known for their beautiful hue resembling red jewels, these locally sourced raspberries take center stage in the hotel’s culinary offerings, tantalizing visitors with their sweet and tart flavors.
Exquisite Raspberry Desserts
The lobby lounge, adorned with a stunning Venetian glass chandelier, showcases two unique raspberry creations: a fresh raspberry parfait and a fresh raspberry tart. Each dessert highlights the versatile charm of the rare domestic raspberries, masterfully combined with different flavors.
Fresh Raspberry Parfait
The fresh raspberry parfait is a luxurious 10-layered dessert that showcases the delicate balance between tea and chocolate. Each layer offers a different taste and texture, created with gluten-free chocolate sponge cake, red wine jelly, Earl Grey mousse, and fresh raspberries. The parfait is crowned with raspberry sorbet and chocolate accents, making it a feast for both the eyes and the palate. Diners can savor the refined acidity and aromatic notes of Gojome raspberries in every delectable spoonful.
Fresh Raspberry Tart
On the other hand, the fresh raspberry tart features a crispy and fragrant tart shell made with domestic wheat flour, filled with rich custard cream flavored with Madagascar vanilla beans. This dessert is lavishly topped with abundant fresh raspberries, allowing guests to appreciate the pure taste of the fruit, including its sweetness and unique crunch. Delicate white and dark chocolate pieces serve as understated accents, enhancing the overall flavor experience.
Experience Blissful Moments
In the historical setting of the Tokyo Station Hotel, guests are invited to indulge in the delicate taste and stunning colors of fresh raspberries, creating a blissful moment to remember.
