Just seeing the purple coating is enough to make your mouth water. Candied Sweet Potato (￥140) This doughnut is also kneaded with sweet potato powder. Once baked, it is covered with a sweet potato honey glaze and black sesame seeds. Sweet Potato (￥140) The Sweet Potato Doughnut is made by kneading the dough with sweet potato powder.

Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo will begin serving its new citrus fruit-packed Yuzu Lemon Afternoon Tea on November 1 at the Le Jardin, the hotel's lobby lounge which offers a view of the beautiful garden. You'll see yuzu and lemons throughout the year, but it is said that winter is the best season to enjoy them. Both lemons and yuzu are said to have a relaxation effect, and so Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo will beckon guests through its cosy doors with the afternoon tea set's refreshing citrus fragrance, inviting them to an early wonderful winter at the beginning of November.
The set includes an assortment of sweets including a yuzu and lemon flavoured savarin, a lemon cheesecake that squeezes out all the juicy nectar of the citrus fruit, and more. The lemons and yuzu are the citrus kingpins of this afternoon tea. The seasonal scones are a mix of yuzu and vanilla scones and silky white chocolate scones to relieve some of the sourness. Enjoy together with a mix of dips including salted clotted cream for even more flavour. On the savoury side of things there is a tempting mix of bites and nibbles, including the use of spicy ginger to warm up your cold body. Welcome the winter early this year and do it in style with Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo's new afternoon tea set. Information
