No, I am not talking about the Well Beloved King Louis XV of France, but the chocolate crisp, ganache, praline bar named after him, created by Chef Alain Ducasse. There are only two restaurants in the entire world that serve this heavenly bar: Alain Ducasse’s 3 star Michelin restaurant in Monte-Carlo, Le Louis XV, and Enderun’s Restaurant 101 here in the Philippines.
Made up of Hazelnut praline meringue, luscious chocolate mousse, and silky smooth chocolate ganache, this bar is one of the meanest chocolate desserts I’ve ever had. And as if the lusciousness of the entire bar is not enough, three edible gold leaves nestled on top of it, exuding a royally dignified stance yet seductive. Seducing one to consume the entire bar with such passion.
It reminds me of Ferrero Rocher Chocolate in terms of taste, only sexier, richer, and downright lovelier to the palate. It is said to be sold at EUR 26 in Monte Carlo, but here, if you have 200+ on your wallet, then you’re on a roll.
Restaurant 101 is located at Enderun Colleges, 1100 Campus Avenue McKinley Hill, For Bonifacio, Taguig City 1634 Philippines. For inquiries and reservation, you can contact them at (632) 8565000 local 101. You can also visit their website at http://101.enderuncolleges.com
