It isn’t easy to find, but this tiny European-style bakery and café is well worth looking for. The excellent bread is reason enough to stop by, with up to a dozen kinds, including raisin bread, whole wheat toast and quiche, on offer every day, and customers coming in from far and wide to get relief from standard Japanese 'bread'.
If you’d like to try before you buy, sit down and order the toast set: you'll get an assortment of toast served with salad and a drink for ¥1,243, making for a fun tasting experience. The espresso-based coffees are also formidable, but the main attraction has to be the superb sandwich menu. ¥1,320 will get you a panini set, with bread varieties and toppings freely customisable – perfect for a lazy lunch on the backstreets of Ekoda.
