Joël Durand, "Liegeois" Mania - Marron & Thyme -

I got the ticket for joining the tasting event "Liegeois(parfait) Mania" in Sep and Oct again. 

SEPTEMBER

The new taste of  Liegeois in September was Marron, and I could have it at the event. Since last time event, they have started collecting money for the drinks, and I paid 1000 yen before the event. This was the one thing changed from last time, and the drink we could have was limited. We could order only three drinks from the menu they prepared.

  

The event started from 7:30pm and the staff brought the new Liegeois to our table. The image of the new one is sunset

Later they served the small foods for the guests.(I don't remember what they were...the taste was good :p)  

It was announced that they just started selling the birthday cake and they served the small portion of the cake for us, too. It is the lavender schiffon cake covered by the whipped cream

OCTOBER

 Next month(November), the new taste will be Thyme. I usually don't use it when I cook, because I am not fan of Thyme... When I got the invitation email from the shop, I was a little bit hesitate to apply for it. Anyway, I asked my friend whether she wants to try it or not, and her answer was "YES!". Thanks to my friend, the Liegeois was really good, and it places in the top 3 that I had in the past.

They served the fresh mint and thyme tea while they were explaining us the new Liegeois.

Can you see the flower? The smell wafted in the air. I felt I smelled it somewhere, but I could not remember it where it was... It didn't taste much, but it made me relax with the smell. 

As usual, they prepared the small food, too. Salmon was covered by the cabbage. Thyme was also used in it.

"Ta Dah~! "

The cake looks like was the thyme hotcake(pancake). We needed to remove the chocolate from the cake first, and then pour the syrup into the little valley of the cake. The syrup was also made by some herbs. The cake soaked it, and the taste was much better than I ate cake only.
