Not exactly the freshest news, which is a bit of a shame. I visited Meringue Meringue, the second brand of DesserTree, not long after it opened in the basement food hall of the Hyundai Department Store Trade C…
I am putting together all the posts from my visits to Maison M’O from this spring through the summer. First in, first out is my rule, but if I do not do it this way I will never get them all up. T…
For personal reasons I often stop by the area around the Homeplus in Jakjeon-dong, and on one of those trips I noticed a dessert shop had opened. This is the place. Who would have thought a place that …

When I lived in Japan, Japanese-style desserts were so commonplace that I hardly remember ever going out of my way to buy them. Even the neighborhood cafes and convenience stores turn out decent desserts, afte…
