Incomparable cake?

Despite Japanese waistlines being nowhere near as whopping as those wobbling about in the West, there are still a dazzling amount of desserts on display covering all conceivable kinds of confectionery.

However, having a burgeoning belly myself, I generally steer well clear of such fattening foodstuffs, although this particular cake was way too compelling. And, as advertised, it was just as I, erm, imagined.

How about yours?

    I think I would have imagined the Tiramisu instead.

    I love Tiramisu, though I would approach Japanese Tiramisu with caution as it probably contains something odd, like oysters or a slice of turnip or something.

    Also, how rare was the Rare Cheese Cake?

    Unimaginably rare Paul.

    So rare in fact that I polished off the last one — ever!
