The Westin Tokyo invites guests to observe the arrival of autumn with its Autumn Harvest Dessert Buffet. Held on weekdays at the international restaurant “The Terrace,” the event features a selection of over 20 desserts created by the hotel’s pastry team. The menu focuses on the seasonal bounty of Japan, incorporating ingredients such as chestnuts, Shine Muscat grapes, pears, apples, figs, pumpkins, and walnuts into a variety of sweets.
A Palette of Autumnal Flavors
The buffet is designed to highlight the distinct textures and aromas of the harvest. Guests can find traditional seasonal ingredients transformed through refined techniques, such as a pumpkin Basque cheesecake and fig and walnut vol-au-vent. The selection also includes fruit-forward options like pear tarts and apple kuchen, alongside aromatic compositions like the roasted hojicha and pecan nut tiramisu.
Variations on the Mont Blanc and Seasonal Fruits
A centerpiece of the offering is a trio of Mont Blanc variations, each utilizing a different base to showcase the versatility of the dessert. These include a rich version made with Kumamoto chestnuts, a French chestnut tart, and a naturally sweet interpretation featuring sweet potato. Complementing these are refreshing options such as Shine Muscat trifles and fontainebleau, which provide a light contrast to the denser autumnal flavors.
Afternoon Dining at The Terrace
Located on the first floor of the hotel, The Terrace provides an open atmosphere with views of a lush patio, allowing diners to feel the transition of the seasons within the Ebisu district. As a wellness-focused property, The Westin Tokyo emphasizes a sophisticated setting for this limited-time experience. The buffet is available exclusively on weekday afternoons, offering a dedicated window to explore the rich culinary profile of the Japanese autumn.
