Alain Ducasse has no intention of stopping. After opening a first store in the Japanese capital dedicated to chocolate and its production, the French chef has opened a second shop where cacao is king: Le Chocolat Alain Ducasse — Comptoir Roppongi. Japan was also the first country to welcome the brand La Manufacture from the three-star chef.
This establishment, situated in the Roppongi Hills district, offers the brand’s classics but also some limited-edition chocolate ranges, all of which are made in Japan.
More information on Le Chocolat Alain Ducasse — Comptoir Roppongi can be found on the chef’s website.
