01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

A charming counter display greets visitors at bakery motto, where neat rows of petite, playful buns sit alongside deeply baked meal breads. With a lineup spanning palm-sized rolls to robust crusty loaves, the selection effortlessly fits everyday dining tables and casual afternoon snacks alike.

Among the highlights are the signature mini buns, sized just right to sample several in one go: a bear-faced chocolate cream bun, a bunny-faced strawberry jam bun, as well as bite-sized melonpan and curry bread. Savory choices are just as varied, ranging from rice-ball-shaped buns filled with kombu or tuna mayonnaise to bagels baked in plain, cheese, and spicy cod roe with potato.

Beyond the approachable sweet items, the bakery shows serious craft in its foundational doughs. The croissant strikes a fine balance between light, folded layers and rich butter, shattering crisply and crumbling gently with each bite. Loaves like the salt roll—where a touch of rock salt sharpens the dough's subtle sweetness—and the crusty, fragrant plain pain de Lodève highlight the natural flavor developed through careful baking.

Doors open at 7:30 in the morning. Operating strictly for takeout without dine-in seating, the shop accepts credit cards, PayPay, and contactless payments, making it an easy stop on the morning commute or during a neighborhood stroll.
