I entered the store around 11:00 on a regular day. I went to Minami-Koen for license renewal in the morning, and since I was hungry, I decided to stop by. I bought a chestnut Danish for 250 yen, a sweet potato pie with red haruka for 320 yen, a peanut French for 160 yen, a super melon bread for 240 yen, a twist donut for 130 yen, a mushroom and onion Danish for 210 yen, and a salt walnut bread for 180 yen (prices are excluding tax). As autumn approaches, I feel like buying products that use sweet potatoes and chestnuts. The sweet potato pie with red haruka has a strong sweetness of sweet potatoes. However, personally, I'm not a big fan of cinnamon, and I felt that there was quite a bit of cinnamon in it. The salt walnut bread had a nice touch of salt and was delicious.

I went with my wife to renew her license and we hadn't eaten breakfast, so we decided to get some takeout at a bakery in the train station. I got a bacon roll with edamame and a potato sandwich on English bread. We were planning to eat at the cafeteria in the license renewal place, but due to COVID restrictions, only the person renewing the license and one companion were allowed inside. We ended up finding a convenience store a bit further away, bought some vegetable juice, and enjoyed our meal in the eat-in area there. The bread was really delicious. Thank you for the meal!

Many people who have visited the driving school in Minoh for license renewal procedures may have also stopped by here. After a tiring day of procedures, the tempting smell of fresh bread led me to this place near the station, or rather, directly connected to the station. I purchased a curry bun and a salted butter roll. Both were delicious when warmed up in the microwave and then baked in the oven, with a fluffy inside and crispy outside. The buttery and salty flavor that spreads out from the salted butter roll was exceptional.

The other day, I came nearby after a long time and intended to buy a happiness anpan, but there was only one left! So I decided to grab the last one and also bought something I don't usually get. The appeal of the sausage in the "Danish Sausage Dog" was impressive haha. It was delicious.

I went to the bakery "Little Mermaid" located under the elevated bridge of Furukawa Bridge, Core Furukawa Bridge. I got some bread from "Little Mermaid," a bakery owned by the Andersen Group. Here are the items I tried: - Denmark Sausage Dog @ 240 yen - Butter Chicken Curry Bread @ 200 yen - Florentine Danish @ 200 yen - Danish Bar Crunchy Sugar @ 130 yen For more information on the menu, atmosphere, and recommended points of the shop, please check the URL below: https://lucky-luckizo.com/blog/28220.html

I entered the LITTLEMARMAID store with the mermaid logo, which has nearly 300 stores nationwide, at the Furukawabashi Station. It is located in the Station Mall Core Furukawabashi. I bought the "Furukawabashi Happiness Anpan" and the "Snowy Stump". The Happiness Anpan looks like a regular anpan, but it actually has more cream inside than red bean paste. The cream is very smooth, with the red bean paste serving as an accent, making it very delicious. The Snowy Stump looks beautiful as its name suggests, with a firm texture. The milk chocolate-flavored filling inside and the crispy outer layer complement each other perfectly, making it very tasty.

On my way to a different bakery, I decided to buy this "幸福あんぱん" from a shop I always see. It caught my attention, so I gave it a try. This "幸福あんぱん" contains red bean paste made from beans from Hokkaido and milk cream. I wonder if the name comes from the "幸福商店街" in Kadoma City. When I searched online, I found out that this bread with different imprints is sold nationwide. It says "ご当地(印)あんぱん" on the package. Despite both the red bean paste and milk cream being sweet, they complement each other well and do not become overwhelming. This is a delicious red bean paste bread!

I tried the "Kogawa Bridge Happiness Anpan" from "Little Mermaid Kogawa Bridge Station Store" and it was double the sweetness. This "Little Mermaid" is a chain bakery that is nationwide, and the "Kogawa Bridge Station Store" is located in Kainai-cho, Kadoma, Osaka (right near Kogawa Bridge Station). The store in front of the station gate has a bright chain bakery atmosphere, with various breads displayed in the showcase. The customers were mostly women and families. I bought the local specialty "Kogawa Bridge Happiness Anpan" this time. When I tried it, the heart and "福" mark dough had a traditional softness like an anpan, and the filling was a combination of sweet red bean paste and milk cream, offering two different sweetness levels which tasted delicious. It was generously filled, making it a good snack. It costs 210 yen + tax per piece, which may be a bit pricey, but it could be a nice souvenir from the area. They also have various other breads like sweet buns, savory buns, and sandwich bread (overall, the prices are a bit high?). So, if you happen to come to the Kadoma Driver's License Examination Center by train, why not try buying it as a souvenir?

I had some errands to run at Furukawa Bridge. After finishing up, I headed back to the station. Near the ticket gate, I spotted a Little Mermaid bakery. I thought about getting some bread for tomorrow morning. So, I decided to check out the bakery. Inside, there were various types of bread. I ended up getting a Arabian-style wiener bread because I love wieners. It was really tasty, especially with the mayonnaise flavor. The Danish bread was also delicious. I enjoyed them with a cup of coffee. I think next time I'll try the curry bread.

Pork cutlet sandwich, ham and cheese French toast, and Fuji apple pie.

【5 and a half years since my last visit】I happened to stop by to buy some bread, but I realized it had been over 5 years since I last visited. I understood that I had indeed been buying bread from other stores more often. This time, I got the "Bacon and Tomato Panini." It's just a regular sandwich, but calling it Italian-style gives it a certain sense of luxury, which is nice. The checkout process has evolved, now accepting electronic money and credit card payments. Having been in the same location for over 10 years, it feels like this place is loved whether it's a chain store or something else.【Overview】A bakery right in front of the ticket gate at Keihan Furukawabashi Station. It's a takeout-only place with no seating area. Since it's a chain bakery, the items they sell are pretty much the same as what you can find elsewhere.

Eating in at this restaurant is crowded even in the morning. Even at 9 am, it's hard to find a seat. The taste of both the cafe and the bread is decent. The morning set is cheap, so it's a good place to kill time.

I stopped by Little Mermaid near Furukawabashi Station on May 14, 2018, after renewing my license. I had Negi Ramen for lunch at Kadoma Shoten and then the rain suddenly intensified. I went back to the license testing center to take shelter from the rain, but it didn't seem to be letting up. As the bus time approached, I headed to the bus stop. There weren't many people waiting yet, so I was able to board the bus easily. When I arrived at Furukawabashi Station, I thought about heading home, but I found a bakery and decided to stop by. - Furukawabashi Koufuku Anpan: It had a heart-shaped marking with the character for "fortune" on top. It looked cute. Inside, there was cream and sweet red bean paste. The anpan was a bit on the sweet side. - Ehime Amanatsu Roll: Made with brioche dough, the inside was hollowed out and filled with Amanatsu marmalade-like filling. The sweetness and sourness were well balanced, not too overwhelming. It had a refreshing taste, more suitable for adults. The bakery is conveniently located near the station and offers a variety of options. It's a good idea to buy some pastries before getting on the train. Thank you for the meal.

This is a bakery located just 5 seconds away from the Keihan Furukawabashi Station exit. It is a popular chain store that is part of the Andersen bakery group, with a bright and stylish atmosphere inside. One unique feature is the glass shelves where customers can take the bread themselves, promoting hygiene. The bakery also displays the calorie content of all products and offers options without dairy, eggs, or salt, catering to health-conscious customers. The bread, while not outstanding, is consistently good with a wide variety of options to meet all needs. Monthly new products are a highlight, attracting regular customers. While the prices may be a bit high, the bakery's late opening time until 9 pm is a plus. Other nearby bakeries include Koneya, Horn (inside the Aeon Furukawabashi store), and Tappy Bakery.

I had Heidi's sandwich for lunch. It had vegetables and ham in it, so I thought it was healthy. But it was quite filling! I thought one wouldn't be enough, but it turned out to be sufficient. The taste was also to my liking, and the bread was soft and fluffy. Thank you for the meal!

[First visit - January 2011] Exiting the ticket gate at Keihan Furukawabashi Station, you will find a bakery right in front of you. It's a bakery in English... Do they call it a bakery? There is no eat-in space, only takeout. It's a chain bakery, so the items they sell are pretty much the same as what you can find elsewhere. They often have new and interesting sweet bread, so you might not get bored. The "My Oyaji Pan" includes curry bread and pizza bread. The taste is quite ordinary, I think. [After 3 years and 9 months - First time having bread again] I may have eaten it during that time, but this is the first time I've been conscious of it in a while. I had a sausage roll pie. It's a dish where a thick sausage is wrapped in pie crust and baked until crispy. I had it as a late afternoon snack at 3 o'clock. It was quite filling and a good item. [After 1 year and 4 months - Having pie again] I had a dish where cheese is added to the center of a pie crust. There is something sweet around the cheese, and I had it as a late afternoon snack at 3 o'clock. It was an item that goes well with coffee, to some extent. [After 2 months - Having bread again] This time, I had a standard loaf of bread. It may not be as good as department store bread, but I don't think there is a significant difference.

After eating ramen at Sunagawa, I had a snack at a convenient bakery near Furukawabashi Station. I've been craving simple bread lately, so I bought a simple Heidi white bread for 108 yen. The bread's surface is crispy, but the inside is quite chewy with the right amount of moisture. The taste isn't very strong at first, but as you chew, the flavor of the bread's ingredients spreads and the umami comes out. This is a perfect match for black coffee.

Now, at Furukawabashi Station, there is a bakery called Little Mermaid right in front of the station entrance. The location is great, and it seems to be popular as there are always customers inside. I went there to get some bread for breakfast. I was thinking of getting a simple baguette, but when I looked inside, I found Heidi's white bread for 108 yen including tax. The price is reasonable and the white bread looks delicious. In the anime, it always looks so tasty. "Heidi, who is now living in Clara's house in Frankfurt, decides to secretly bring back white bread as a gift for Peter's grandmother, which they never eat in the Alps." Heidi wants to give the delicious white bread to the blind grandmother... When you eat it, the bread is fluffy and has a gentle taste with a hint of salt. It's good on its own, but it also goes well with strawberry jam. Next up, let's try the apple pie!

I visited a bakery in Kadoma City, Osaka Prefecture. The salt butter bread is fluffy with a hint of salt and a buttery aroma, making it light and delicious. The Danish bar (pearl sugar) has a crispy exterior and a soft interior, with the sugar providing a nice crunch without being too sweet. The Setoda lemon pie has a crispy texture, a nice buttery aroma, and a refreshing lemon cream that is delicious. The Uji matcha red bean Danish has a slightly sweet Danish pastry with a good matcha bean paste aroma and a subtly sweet red bean filling with a nice texture. There are many types of bread to choose from, making it difficult to decide which one to buy. There are also interesting bread options that children would enjoy. I felt that there were few varieties of savory bread that I like, but this may vary depending on the time of day. Since it is a chain store, I would like to visit a location near my home next time. My wife was also satisfied. Little Mermaid Furukawabashi Store 06-6916-2101 1-20-127 Kainai-cho, Kadoma City, Osaka Prefecture Core Furukawabashi Store 7:00-21:30 No regular holidays No parking

When returning from Furukawa Bridge, I often stop by this bakery. The bread is freshly baked and truly delicious. However, they never offer discounts even when it's close to closing time... This is a big difference compared to the bakery at Aeon Dainichi store. That's why I always end up going to Aeon instead. The prices are high even for regular bread, so it's hard to afford... I always wish they would at least discount the bread close to closing time. Before the Little Mermaid bakery opened here, there was a Takarabune bakery with delicious and affordable bread, which I used to frequent. But since the Little Mermaid took over, I, and probably others, have stopped buying from there!
