Today, I had a business trip from Takikawa to Furano. After finishing work in Furano at 12 o'clock, I stopped by this place nearby to buy souvenirs for my family. I decided to get "Asparagus Bacon" for myself, "Snack Rusk" for my wife, and "Croissant" for my son and mother-in-law. I brought the items to the counter on a tray and asked the staff, "Is it okay if I take a picture of the items?" After getting permission, I took a photo. Normally, I would go back to my car, but today I decided to eat the curry bun I bought at a roadside station along the way (laughs). On the way home, I stopped by Chiroru no Yu in Utashinai as usual. By the way, Utashinai is the town where the famous "Otaru Boss" (a legendary reckless driver) caused trouble when he was a child. The locals all mentioned it. They said that the entire town has a 40 km/h speed limit because of the Otaru Boss's reckless driving. Some parts of the above text may contain fiction (laughs).

I like bean bread and walnut bread. Cheese bread is also delicious. It's strange, but I don't really like bread. I came here to buy for my family and I became hooked. As someone who loves rice, I also love this bakery.

I revisited the bakery on June 17, 2017. Last month, I saw a notice on the door saying they were closed for a long holiday, but this time when I happened to pass by, the shop was open so I decided to go in. The staff was different from last time, or maybe it was just a different person working that day, but they were very friendly and chatty while I was choosing my bread. They even brought out a few freshly baked bread samples for me to try. The atmosphere inside the shop was much brighter and cozier compared to my previous visit. The variety of bread seemed to have changed a bit, with more familiar types like Heidi bread, croissants, bean bread, cheese bread, and hot dog buns. The bread was delicious, especially the freshly baked ones that were still warm. There were so many options that I want to try them all next time!

I think the price is good, around 200 yen, and the taste is delicious. However, I would enjoy shopping more if the atmosphere, including the staff, was a little brighter.

I heard that a new bakery opened in Furano, and I finally got a chance to visit it. The interior of the shop is stylish and they have a wide variety of breads, including hot dog buns, red bean buns, raisin bread, and nut-filled bread. I bought a few and they were delicious, with soft, sweet, and chewy textures. There were also some breads that I had never seen before in other shops. I would love to try them next time I visit Furano.

"I heard that a new bakery opened in Furano, but I haven't been able to go yet. Maybe because I'm always going on expeditions? (laughs) But one day, my friend N from Furano brought me some bread from there. It's located near Sanbankan in the city center of Furano, called Furano Bakery. The curry bread has a gentle and pleasant taste to it, which I really liked. They also had various types of pastries like croissants and snacks. The most popular one seemed to be the prepared bread. According to some unconfirmed information N heard, it seems like someone from the now-closed Matsuya Seipan in Kami-Furano might be involved in making the bread here. Matsuya was known for their prepared bread too. The bread at Furano Bakery is said to be made without using frozen dough. Each piece is small and elegant, but carefully made and delicious. I definitely have to stop by when I go to Furano next time."

In the morning, the delicious smell of bread is wafting through the station ✨ I've never seen a bakery open this early before! ✨ The best combination for breakfast is freshly baked croissant and coffee ✨ The croissants here are especially delicious, ranging from simple ones to those with fruit toppings ✨ My hidden favorite is the Tuscan bread, which has a texture that is a perfect mix between baguette and fluffy bread ✨ The owner recommended making French toast with this bread, and it was the best I've ever had ✨ Next door, at Flanobar, they use this bread for Italian sandwiches and as a side for garlic shrimp, and it goes well with anything ✨ There are plenty of other options at this bakery that make it enjoyable every time you visit ✨

First time at Flanove Bakery. The logo has "FB" written on it, but Flanoburger is also FB, and of course it's different from Facebook, so be careful. It's conveniently located near the station, perfect for tourists. Next to it is Flanobar, which offers lunch using the bread from here, so it's definitely a place worth visiting. Now, the bakery itself is small inside. There are baguettes, savory bread, sweet bread, and pandemie lined up. It has a stylish design, but it's a comforting space even for someone like me. The person at the shop is a very well-built young man (my husband said he was here before), and his eye-catching bacon and asparagus bread caught my attention. It's like the common bacon-wrapped asparagus, but with thick bacon. It looks like sausage slices. The texture is just to my liking. Rolling it up was a great idea! The rich aroma of the bacon spreads out nicely. The cheese sprinkled on top adds a subtle presence. I wonder if this was the idea of that young man (laughs). A hearty bread that really satisfied me. By the way, the website of the shop (shared with Flanobar) only introduces each shop. It would be appreciated if they could provide more information, such as the menu, seasonal limited items, and the concept of ingredients.

A few days ago, I discovered a bakery on my way to work. It was unusual to see a bakery open during my commute, so I was curious about what kind of bakery it was. Today (June 8th), I had plans to pass by the area during the day, so I decided to stop by. The shop was small, and I could see the staff making bread in the back through the glass. They had a variety of bread types including sandwich bread, hard bread, sweet bread, and pastries, which was more than I expected. Whenever I visit a new bakery, I always feel like trying their melon pan, so this time I bought a melon pan (168 yen). It was triangular in shape, and if it wasn't labeled melon pan, I might have missed it. Inside, there was custard cream and whipped cream. However, when I took a bite and looked inside, the custard was only a small amount in the middle, and the whipped cream was rolling around in an empty space... It was a bit disappointing. Next time, I want to try their classic red bean paste bun. They open from 7:30 in the morning, so I hope to stop by before work next time.

Local department store's 40th week anniversary Hokkaido product exhibition at the Flan Bakery booth ((o(^∇^)o)) had red tags with 50 yen off on all items (laughs) Today is the last day, so they need to sell out. So, I got a bag of raisin bread! It was 432 yen with a 50 yen discount. They say it's bread made with milk instead of water. The next morning, a faint rum scent hits you. Close your eyes and you're in Hokkaido... It was a delicious bread ===========

I visited the "Winter Hokkaido Food Fair" at Odakyu Department Store Shinjuku again this year (until 1/27). I wanted to buy the "Furano Baked Cheese Curry Bread" that was advertised. However, when I arrived, I found that the bread was wrapped in plastic and it was actually the "Furano Baked Curry Bread" without cheese. I decided to buy it anyway and went to the rest area. There were fewer benches available this time, and there was no standing space, so it took me a while to find a seat. When I opened the packaging and took a bite, I realized that it lacked the freshly baked feeling. The curry inside was quite spicy, with only one piece of potato and bacon each. It didn't taste as good as before, probably because it wasn't warmed up. I had a disappointing experience this time, especially since I had just eaten delicious freshly baked bread at another Hokkaido fair the day before. I visited the "Winter Hokkaido Food Fair" at Odakyu Department Store Shinjuku again this year (until 2/4). On the first day, I bought the "Creamy Cheese Dog" and enjoyed it at the standing space inside the venue. I had recently tried the "Furano Curry Dog" at Tobu Department Store's Hokkaido fair, and I couldn't resist trying another one. The sweet and delicious bread here, topped with juicy sausage and cheese, was irresistible. When I revisited on the third day, I learned from the staff that some people come to buy this every day. They even expressed interest in buying the bread used for this hot dog, although it was not for sale. I also tried the "Bacon and Cheese Hot Sandwich" that I had enjoyed last year. The way the cheese was placed was simpler compared to last year, but it was still delicious with juicy bacon, cheese, and mayonnaise. Before leaving, I bought the "Cheese Senbei" that had caught my eye last year and enjoyed it the next day (shelf life of 2 days). The hard dough topped with cheese had a strong garlic aroma. The texture was firm, and the combination of cheese and garlic flavor was just right. I ate it as it was, but it can be baked in a toaster oven to enhance the crunchy texture and flavor. I visited the "Winter Hokkaido Food Fair" at Odakyu Department Store Shinjuku again this year (until 2/5). I purchased the "Bacon and Cheese Hot Sandwich" and the "Mentaiko France" that were advertised. Since the dining area was crowded, I decided to eat on the rooftop. It was a bit cloudy and cool, but the rooftop was a nice place to eat. There were no tables for dining, just a few benches. I started with the "Bacon and Cheese Hot Sandwich" which was no longer warm but still had a crispy surface and soft inside. The bacon inside was delicious, even though there was only one slice. The "Mentaiko France" bread was my favorite type of French bread, with just the right amount of chewiness. The mentaiko wasn't too much, but it had a slightly spicy taste that balanced well with the buttery flavor. It was a pleasant experience to eat outside, and I even shared some bread with a pigeon that came by.

I purchased the Kabocha Pan Do Mi (\450 + tax) and Curry Pan (\250 + tax) at the 51st Hokkaido Product Exhibition held at Funabashi Tobu. The Kabocha Pan Do Mi had a best before date of the day after I bought it. I reheated it the next morning and found that it had a slightly sweet taste, with a crispy crust and a fluffy inside. It paired well with rhubarb jam. My partner tried the Curry Pan and simply said, "It was delicious." It would be even better if it was a bit cheaper for everyday use, but it's worth it for a special treat at a product exhibition. I'm curious about the Curry Pan that was sold out. I'll definitely try it if I come across it again.

This is a review of a shop that participated in the Hokkaido Product Exhibition held at Tobu Funabashi. They had a variety of items such as bread and baguettes, but what caught my eye was the display full of curry buns. The curry buns were priced at 270 yen each (tax included). They were slightly larger than usual. I bought two, and each had a slightly different taste, possibly due to being made at different times. One had a crispy and crunchy texture around the bread. The other one, while less crispy, had a satisfying texture due to the large chunks of potatoes inside. It felt homemade and that added to the experience.

A bakery located in Furano City. Opened in May 2013. They offer a variety of bread and sandwiches. Operating hours are from 7:30 am. Closed on Mondays. One of the sandwiches they offer is the Bacon and Cheese Hot Sandwich. It is made with a long bread roll with cuts, filled with special bacon from Furano Ranch and cheddar cheese. It is simple with just these ingredients, but the flavors of the ingredients shine through. The bacon has a perfect balance of meat and fat, with just the right amount of saltiness. The cheddar cheese is rich and truly tastes like cheese.

The staff at this place in Furano keeps pushing mentaiko dishes, but they also have bacon, which they say is homemade! The name "hot sandwich" doesn't sound familiar, but when you go to a sandwich shop, you'll find those. It's a big-sized roll with a slightly firm crust, but it has a chewy texture. When lightly heated, the cheese melts just right. The smoked bacon aroma and the smooth cheese coating blend well together.
