I definitely enjoy this more than the Chocolate Renga I had previously. Yuan personally feel that rich chocolate mousse lover might be disappoint with this but ultimately taste is subjected to individual preference.

The outer crisp layer looks like meringue to me. Is that it?
Nope, it is a chocolate chiffon with a crispy crust =)
But I have to admit it does look like the Passionfruit meringue from the Patissier.
The same Cocoa Banaan at Flor:
"sweet banana encased in fresh cream rolled in crunchy dark chocolate meringue".
So I was right fen. The outer meringue layer couldn't have been crispy and chewy otherwise.
Oh, if that is the case, it is amazing that it is not exceedingly sweet. At least based on my memory...
Wow, you are so familiar with your food, I don't recall you eating this (from your blog entries) but based on description and photo, you can figure out what is it...
Hmm... one question, meringue is just whites and sugar, how did it end up chewy like a sponge...
Found some answers online. It's got to do with temperature control & quantity of ingredients.

So essentially the meringue is baked at a slightly higher temperature and for a shorter time.
Still abit hard to believe that it is a meringue... Considering it is soft and isn't that sweet. Moreover, it is quite flexible to be rolled up..
Nevertheless, I never doubt your description of food, considering how detailed you are when it comes to the breakdown...
Thanks for the links...
Since this has been eaten awhile ago, I can't remember the details but the description of chewy meringue reminds me of macaron shells....
