Cookie by Imperial (Teikoku) Hotel

LOYAL ROAD OF COOKIE, SIMPLE BUT HIGHER GRADE.

Imperial Hotel (Teikoku hotel, 帝国ホテル) is well known for its sophisticated hospitality and great food served there. Even if you are not staying in, I recommend you to eat beef curry at the cafe. Extremely tender but leaving certain chewy texture beef and thick, spicy curry simply makes your life brighter.

Baked sweets and cookies are also recommended. Let me introduce cookie that I bought for your reference.

These are what's about to try. Here we go.

macaroon of imperial hotel, teikokuhotel, mementravel

Macaroon.

Crunchy mouthfeel and chewy caramel that is after texture is simply addictive. I felt crispy almond in between each bites. Taste is quite simplistic.

Cross section of macaroon. Gap inside it makes special fluffy and spread the taste when bitten.

hazelnut cookie by imperial hotel, mementravel.com

Hazelnut.

Very first thing you'll feel is appetizing smell of butter. Crumbling and mouth melting texture with very light hazelnut taste. Since hazelnuts are crushed and used plenty as it seems, I expected more of hazelnut's, it wasn't. This less assertive totally depends on your preference.

fig cookie by imperial hotel, mementravel

Fig.

I liked this the most. Floating fragrance of butter, light crunchy texture that melts in mouth. Fig's tingling texture and its smell makes the perfect match with lightly sugared cookie. Tingling texture in cookie was new to me and I really loved it.

Chocolate.

Crispy and mouth melting texture cookie. The taste was a bit bitter. Walnut is crushed and roasted, making it extra crispy. The bitterness is not too much, which brings out sweetness and fragrance of cocoa powder.

strawberry cookie by imperial hotel, mementravel.com

Strawberry.

The sweetest cookie I tasted in this box. Crispy and strawberry seed's tingling

texture is similar to the fig. Sour and sweet after taste of strawberry is lasting. It was a bit too sweet for me.

Coconut.

Hundreds of slices of coconut are lavishly used in caramel base dough. Crunchy coconut and chewy caramel texture is perfect mix with butter. Fragrance of coconut and butter is lasting in mouth.

coffee cookie by imperial hotel, メメントラベル

Coffee.

Sweet smell which I still wonder what it was. Crunchy texture with scent of coffee powder in mixture. It felt like tasting non-sweet Caramel Macchiato, which was bull's-eye for me. (Whom never to sugar in coffee.)
