Chocolates from Japan

Filed under: Uncategorized — Paul @ 7:43 pm

A very kind woman I met a couple of years back, Sachi Tahara, dropped in today on a visit from Japan.  She always does this unannounced, but somehow at a time when I have a moment.  She graduated from the art institute here, and is now involved with a sort of Design Incubator in Tokyo.  I don’t quite get how it all works, there being something of a language barrier, but I know she does it well.

She brought me these insane chocolates that go very well with my 25 cups of espresso per day.  Hooked already.  Also showed me work by one of her friends, Aya Saki.  Very much worth a look.  You’ll find an impression of Sachi somewhere in there.

Always wanted to visit Japan: Inland Sea, Mount Fuji, Kyoto, lots of spas, and sushi every day.  Perhaps next year.
