[Taipei pastry shop / 台北甜點店] 日式甜點 折田菓舖（中文請按「繼續閱讀」）
Situated in a quiet alley nearby metro ZhongXiao-FuXin, Orita Japan Cakes has just opened its door for two weeks. The Japanese chef Masahiro Orita is so fond of Taiwan that he decided to stay and settle his own shop here. Ethan and I met in Paris and did our internship together with one of the chefs who runs Quelques Pâtisseries 某某｡甜點. It's just amazing to see both of them here again in Taipei and each has their own beautiful boutiques.
While being no less skillful in making French pastries, Orita chose to focus on some Japanese delicacies for his shop, like the incredibly delicious and delicate Chiffon cakes, cake rolls, and mille-crêpes. Although the address is still new, it seems to attract local crowds already. I'm happy to have yet another pastry chef friend around, but what's really important is what the shop adds to the flourishing Taipei pastry landscape.
甜點食況轉播！因為早上和朋友在附近早午餐，下午順道拜訪了兩個甜點師朋友，其中一位就是最近才剛剛在仁愛路巷子中開了一家店的主廚折田將大（Orita Masahiro）。台灣的法式甜點店熱潮方興未艾，但折田選擇用他的甜點專業技術突顯自己的日本背景，折田菓舖的招牌是台灣人最愛的戚風蛋糕、蛋糕捲與千層蛋糕。我來了兩次，吃到的三個甜點都令人驚艷。戚風蛋糕濕潤有彈性、充滿空氣感，調味細緻、外型簡潔，可以嚐到主廚溫柔的心，難怪才開幕沒多久就大受歡迎。今天來的時候店裡已經滿座，而且千層蛋糕也已售罄。
想到那時我和他、以及某某甜點的其中一位主廚一起在巴黎實習，真的是好懷念呀！好高興看到他們現在都在為自己的理想努力著。大家有空也來幫他們打打氣吧！
