Dominique Ansel
Dominique Ansel, who won the James Beard Award, originated the famous "cronut" (a doughnut made of croissant pastry) in NYC.
Although he got incredibly famous thanks to the cronut, he is famous for others sweets as well, such as the frozen S'more treat (¥750), which is torched marshmallow with ice cream and chocolate chips inside; and the cookie shot (¥480), a cookie made in the shape of a cup so you can drink your milk out of it! There are loads of delicious seasonal sweets to try too!
If you have a sweet tooth, this is heaven!
He now has two branches in Tokyo: in Omotesando and in Ginza.
The Omotesando branch is a few minutes from the station.
Be prepared to queue as this place's popularity isn't dying down!
The Ginza branch is in the basement of the Mitsukoshi department store and tends to be a lot less crowded!
