Exotic Chocolate Bars / Black Pearl Exotic Candy Bar
This ethereal and delicious combination sprung from my childhood discovery of salt and sweet on a plate of chocolate chip pancakes kissed with sizzling bacon. Yum!
Inhale warming ginger as menthol-nuanced wasabi cools. Sense the evolution of flavors in the mouth. Commence with ginger, followed by earthy cacao notes, mellow wasabi reminiscent of coriander, finishing with black sesame seeds, rich in nutty texture.

Wasabi leaves fried into little crackers. Small grating devices to garner the freshest of the light green rhizome. Ahhh Japan. Wasabi (in Japanese: 
) is a member of the cabbage family. Known as Japanese horseradish, its root is used as a spice for the precious raw fish, sushi. It has an extremely aromatic flavor, though its hotness is more akin to that of a hot mustard than the capsaicin in a chili pepper, producing vapors that irritate the nasal passages more than the tongue. It actually is not spicy-hot as much as it is aromatic, that is if you are eating the real thing. Wasabi is distinctly Japanese and married to ginger.

JAPAN
Key to the Culture: Secretive, hidden, full of contradictions—Japan is a bewitching place, where the traditional and the cutting-edge collide full force. To navigate its neon-lit cities and ethereal countryside is to be spirited away.
Taste... The best traditional sushi in Tokyo at the family-run Kyubey, and go for avant-garde cuisine at Aronia de Takazawa, where chef Yoshiaki Takazawa cooks for only about ten lucky diners every night.
Marvel... at the daily tuna auction at Tsujiki fish market, where choice pieces are sold for thousands of dollars, then join the traders in one of the tiny sushi stalls for a raw snack at 6 a.m.
Indulge... in Hakone's Goro Kadan ryokana, a favorite of chef Nobu Matsuhisa, where the serving of the flavorful, multi-course kaiseki meal is an art in itself.
Understand... that the Japanese onsen (baths) are deeply rooted in the Shinto religion, so are not about sybaritic pampering but about purification, healing and private contemplation.
Get to know... Bespoke Tokyo, an excellent tour company founded by British ex-pats who plot "urban safaris" deep into the jungle that is Tokyo.
