This time, I visited the café 'AUX BACCHANALES' which opened in June 2020 on the 3rd floor of the multipurpose commercial facility "WITH HARAJUKU", just a 1-minute walk from Harajuku Station!

'AUX BACCHANALES' is focused on conveying "the popular food culture of France," and it seems they pursue French styles in their interior, menu, and service.
The glass entrance creates a feeling of openness, which enhances the excitement for the "Paris trip" about to begin.
The combination and harmony of the three elements— "space," "menu," and "people"—create an atmosphere that expresses "it doesn't feel like Japan" as described in AUX BACCHANALES.
Mirrors spanning an entire wall, red chairs, the menu written on a blackboard, French posters, and the lively orders and conversations in French create a delightful "space."
In addition to classic dishes, the daily menu using seasonal ingredients allows you to enjoy meals that reflect the season.
Of course, there is a commitment to the dessert menu as well, with a rich variety of options including soufflés and Paris-Brest. The sweets displayed in the showcase as soon as you enter the shop are so cute.

Menu I ordered this time:
【Strawberry Mille-Feuille】
As you can tell from its appearance, the mille-feuille is artfully baked in delicate, multiple layers. It is filled with plenty of custard cream and strawberries♡
The cross-section is beautiful, and the strawberries are adorable, creating a visually stunning dish that satisfies just by looking at it.
Moreover, the crispy sound as you insert the fork is irresistible. The custard has a rich and creamy texture, but the sweetness is modest and sophisticated.
The sweet and sour strawberries and the crunchy mille-feuille pastry enhance each other, filling your mouth with delicious happiness.

Inside the store, there is a high-quality space reminiscent of Paris, France. The spacious interior with 91 seats is divided into several areas, allowing you to enjoy a variety of moods depending on where you sit, with modern tastes and classical interiors.
Additionally, a must-try is the terrace seating filled with openness. Right in front, there's the newly renovated Harajuku Station. Beyond that, the greenery of Meiji Shrine expands, creating a perfect location. The collaboration between the evolving urban landscape and the historic nature feels very special.
You can enjoy the luxurious feeling of having the scenery all to yourself.
With delicious sweets and an open location, it feels just like being in Paris♪ Since it's a time when traveling is difficult, why not enjoy an extraordinary time at 'AUX BACCHANALES'?

Once again, I'm completely full, Harapeko-chan!
Thank you for the meal.
