A sign that caught my eye at Sangenjaya in Tokyo. When I went down the back alley as instructed, I found a fashionable patisserie.


The name of the store is "La Base Secrète Dougaman" which means "Secret Base of Gaman" in French. This is a sweets and bread shop of the bistro French "Oh Gaman de Tokio" series.


A bright interior with a view of the kitchen. There is also a counter seat where you can eat in. A lineup of fresh and baked sweets and bread.

"Terrine de Chocolat" is a sweet that is also offered at the main restaurant. Chocolate is mixed with butter, sugar and eggs. The price is 650 yen per cut (tax included, same below).


The upper part is crispy and the inside is soothing and smooth. The rich cacao flavor and deep richness spread throughout your mouth. Anyway, it's rich and the satisfaction of each bite is great!

It is also recommended to warm it up a little in the microwave. The chocolate that overflows with the trolley maximizes the feeling of happiness. You can feel the aroma and sweetness more firmly. The change in mouthfeel that melts softly is also ◎.


The "corn mousse sandwich" is a sweets reproduction of a restaurant's popular specialty. A cookie dough mixed with crushed corn flakes, sandwiched with corn mousse. The price is 351 yen each.


The contrast between the crispy cookies and the fluffy mousse is exquisite. Following the aroma is the fresh sweetness of corn and the richness of milk. The slightly salty salt enhances the taste. A mysterious and attractive dish that is both a dessert and an appetizer.


It is also a point that you can enjoy different textures by refrigerating, freezing, and half-thawing. When frozen, the mousse is cool and smooth, and when it is half-thawed, it has a moist mouthfeel. Please try and compare them.

"Forest Mousse" is a mousse-style cake made from Italian pistachio paste and Valrhona pralines. It is topped with a lot of nuts. The price is 550 yen.


A fragrant pistachio and praline match. You can enjoy the deep richness that is typical of nuts. Accented with crispy toppings. The delicate taste that was thought to keep you from getting tired of the last bite.


"Sangenjaya's secret base" where you can easily enjoy restaurant-quality sweets. Even if you think the main store is a little difficult, why not stop by as if you were going to the base?
