Japan 11/01/2007 - Dessert Forest in Namjatown

   
Also on the second floor of Namjatown was the Desserts Forest, a large section with several different shops.   The largest shop was dedicated to this limited time Mont Blanc Dessert Exposition.   Here was a nice little edible scene.

   
Some of the many delicious looking shops.

   
More delicious dessert shops. I really wanted to try one of these custard pots but I was way too full from all the gyoza.

   
These two cases were the central focus of the Mont Blanc Exhibit. You could try any of these items, but there were a limited number so they would run out through the course of the day.   I liked this dessert b/c it is made to look like Zaru-Soba, which is cold buckwheat noodles that have been drained on a bamboo rack.

   
This was the open self-serve Mont Blanc refrigerator where you could pick whatever miscellaneous desserts you wanted.

     
I chose this marron (chestnut) sponge roll for ¥420. It was ok, but didn't have that much flavor so I wasn't impressed.   I have no idea what this was and couldn't tell from it's flavor, which was almost non-existant. This one was definitely not worth ¥520.
