Excellence that blends creativity from Japan and tradition from France. Maybe you will think that this is the current trendy association in the Parisian dessert scene, but discovering Mori Yoshida’s pastries will surely make you change your mind. The young Chef is resolutely enamoured with French taste and revisits it with the utmost subtlety. His viennoiseries and crème pâtissière retain a classic approach, but his chocolates and entremets are full of surprises. A desire to renew things rather than stick to a fad is strongly felt here.
