Oriol Balaguer - chocolates from Spain in Shirogane

I was seduced by a Spaniard in Shiroganedai, and he offered me unique chocolates. Oriol Balaguer`s shop is an intimate space, if you can find it. He blew my mind with a firecracker chocolate. If there is one chocolate you should try, this is it. I have never had a chocolate go snap, crackle and pop in my mouth before, a brilliant concept that works. He tempted me with his unique ?Nippon Collection? featuring a savory soy sauce, a spicy wasabi and a roasty, toasty hojicha tea. But he won my Midwestern heart with a chocolate that was filled with crunchy bits of corn. Oriol spent 7 years as the pastry chef at El Bulli in Spain with the gastronomic innovator Adrian Ferran, which explains his creative flair.
