Capitol Easter 2016

Usually overshadowed by the cherry blossoms, Easter tends to get a raw deal in Tokyo – or at least used to. More and more event organisers and businesses have started marking the Resurrection over the past few years, if only because it offers yet another one of those seasonal marketing opportunities so beloved by the Japanese PR trade. The Capitol Hotel in Nagatacho gets on board with sales of Easter Egg Chocolate (¥1,250) at its Origami pastry boutique, where you can also pick up Easter Egg Cookies (¥350) flavoured with vanilla beans. Get the best of both worlds and pick up some of these sweet treats for your hanami picnic.
