Mesm Tokyo, Autograph Collection Launches Limited-Edition 'Layered Parfait' Featuring Prosciutto and Melon, Inspired by a Graceful Summer Afternoon in Rome

Mesm Tokyo, Autograph Collection (1-10-30 Kaigan, Minato-ku; General Manager: Hisashi Oinuma), a modern luxury hotel that resonates with the vibrancy of Tokyo, will offer a limited-edition 'Layered Parfait' featuring prosciutto and melon at its 16th-floor bar and lounge, 'Whisk,' from July 1 (Wed) to September 30 (Wed), 2026.

The 'Layered Parfait,' which changes its theme seasonally, is inspired this time by the sophisticated food culture of Rome since the 1960s and the 'aperitivo' culture. It is designed to be enjoyed as both a dessert and a light meal. The stars of the dish are fresh, juicy summer melon and savory prosciutto. Layers of mascarpone, yogurt, pistachio, tomato, basil, and lime create a refreshing yet rich flavor profile. The melon jelly and pulp add sweetness, while the mascarpone mousse and pistachio ganache provide a smooth, creamy texture. Tomato jelly, yogurt mousse, and crushed grissini crumbles harmonize the sweetness, saltiness, acidity, and aroma. The bottom layer features lime and basil jelly, providing a refreshing finish. The top is decorated with prosciutto shaped like rose petals, evoking a Roman afternoon. Enjoy this unique summer treat while overlooking the Hama-rikyu Gardens and Tokyo Bay.
