The French bistro "Maison Marunouchi" at Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Marunouchi will be hosting a "Melon Afternoon Tea" offering a luxurious taste of early summer from Friday, May 5th to Sunday, June 16th.
The dessert, made with three types of melon carefully selected by Executive Pastry Chef Patrick Thibaud, centered around fragrant muskmelon, will add a refreshing touch to any early summer tea stand, with melons of different colors and aromas.
"Melon panna cotta"
One of the most popular is the "Melon Panna Cotta," which is made by layering smooth panna cotta with melon jelly and fresh melon. The light, melt-in-your-mouth panna cotta brings out the mellow sweetness of the fresh melon, creating a rich flavor.
"Melon Melon"
"Melon Tart"
Other sweets on offer include "Melon Melon," a vanilla sponge and honeydew melon confit wrapped in melon mousse to resemble a melon; "Melon Tart," each sliced by hand; and "Melon Shortcake," which allows you to enjoy the harmony of muskmelon and Chantilly cream. These are sweets that you can enjoy the contrast between the beauty of their appearance and their texture.
The savory dishes were overseen by Daniel Calvert, executive chef of the three-star Michelin restaurant SÉZANNE. Three types of authentic British sandwiches and three types of canapes bring out the sweetness of the melon.
"Melon Millefeuille (Eat-in 3,000 Yen / Takeaway 7,000 yen) (Limited time offer from May 5th to June 16th)
In addition, the popular mille-feuille, made with layers of pie crust, will be offering a limited edition "Melon Mille-feuille" from Friday, May 5th, which is made with pie crust layered with two types of cream and red and green melon. This is also available for takeout, so you can enjoy the taste of MAISON MARUNOUCHI at home.
Why not enjoy a refreshingly sweet teatime in a dining area with a dynamic view of the Marunouchi cityscape and Shinkansen trains passing by?
