It’s ironic that we didn’t try the chocolate creations at Jean-Paul Hévin, regarded as one of the world’s best chocolatiers.

Instead, the seasonal items were the ones to capture our attention since it’s chestnut season in Tokyo now, yay!

I usually love Mont Blanc (above) but that was too sweet so I prefer Turin (below) this time. Financier-like base with almonds, topped with ovals of marron cream mousse and coated with a layer of dark chocolate, lovely!
