Koto City, Tokyo, Japan｜Charmant

This place surprised me. On first glance doesn't seem like it would be that good but actually the breads inside are top notch. The more westernized ones are packed full (recommend the bacon bread and chocolate bread) and the more traditional Japanese ones are done exactly as you'd expect. Every now and then there are some fancy quiche or cakes as a surprise being sold.

Oh my, best breakfast I've had in awhile. They are not shy on the meat 😂

I stopped by in search of a birthday cake, but was told that reservations were required for the hall. However, I was surprised by the volume of the seasonal peach cake. It has more than half a peach on it, so it's a great value. The onion tart with red pepper is also a dish that can only be tasted here. They also sell bread, baked goods, and jam, making it exciting to choose. The store has a retro atmosphere with a good view. There are many things that give you a sense of the times, such as shelves and lighting, and it's very nice. The granny clerk's response was warm and made me happy.
