Never had montblanc, not sure if i'd like pumpkin/chestnut too much even in dessert form but i'd try a free sample versus paying (not that bakeries around here are 'fancy' enough to serve it)
It's always weird when someone gushes over a 'normal' person versus celeb but it's cool that he's chill about it, i feel like if ppl were like that as a teen to their friends it'd be too ego inflating versus someone with bad self esteem
