A bakery located in a residential area in Koya. They have various kinds of filled buns, but I was tempted by the freshly baked sign and bought a croissant for 225 yen and a curry bun for 310 yen. The croissant could use a bit more buttery flavor. The curry bun was really hot as it was freshly fried, and the Naka curry inside was super spicy, but delicious.

I was quite indecisive as there were many fancy bread options lined up. I definitely want to revisit and try other breads as well. - Roast Chicken and Egg Croque-monsieur: 388 yen A large, thick, and generously filled Croque-monsieur with a rich volume. When toasted, the aroma of tomato and cheese stands out. It is said to be the "2nd most popular item" at the store. - Pistachio Raisin: 264 yen It looks hard on the outside, but it was actually fluffy. It might have been good to steam toast it before eating, as when I tore it in half, the bread dough stretched slightly. I wanted to take a slow-motion video. The pistachio scent and texture, along with the sweetness of raisins, made it very delicious. - Orange and White Chocolate Cream Choux: 311 yen A soft and fluffy bread with custard cream, white chocolate cream, pistachios, oranges, and apple compote generously placed in the middle. - Fermented Butter Croissant with Walnuts: Large 254 yen My husband had this. The small walnut croissant for 122 yen is quite small in size. - Kitahonami Bread: Half Size, 100% Hokkaido Wheat 252 yen It was fluffy and very delicious. Even my eldest daughter, who is picky about the taste of bread (or rather, won't eat it if it's not delicious), finished a slice in no time. Definitely a repeat purchase. But since there were other types of bread, I would like to try others as well.

Near my house, there is a bakery with a variety of unique breads. It was my first visit, so I tried their most popular items, No. 1 and No. 2. - Caramel Orange Croissant Amande (340 yen) This is their bestseller and it's perfect for those who love sweet treats! It was delicious. - Croque Monsieur (360 yen) It was filled with roast chicken and plenty of eggs. The taste of mayonnaise was strong. It was quite filling, so even though it was a bit pricey, I was very satisfied. I also want to try their Kouign-Amann, cream puffs, and Epi bread (which I couldn't find this time) in the future.

The first time I visited, I bought simple bread, but later I was impressed by the volume of the deli bread. Since then, I have been going there every week. Among the many breads I have tried, the ones in the photos are the only ones I have. However, the most memorable one was the strawberry choux with mango sauce. It was very sweet, more like a dessert than bread, and the texture of the sugar sprinkled on the dough was a nice accent. Another standout was the egg and pepper pork sandwich. This sandwich is incredibly thick. With plenty of lettuce inside, it is refreshing, and the richness of the egg salad and boiled egg is not overwhelming. The Croque-monsieur in the photo is available year-round, with the filling changing slightly depending on the season, and the teriyaki chicken and soft-boiled egg focaccia is also available year-round. The shop's Instagram is updated fairly regularly, introducing new products, so it might be a good idea to check it out and go when you find a bread you like. It is recommended to go in the morning when there are plenty of breads, as sometimes there may be few left in the afternoon before the additional baking is done!

Located behind Izumiya in Takano, between there and Rakuhoku Hankyu Square. There are letters, or rather drawings, from grandchildren or regular elementary school students that are displayed, and it was very heartwarming. I really like this kind of atmosphere. The pistachio raisin was good. The heart-shaped tropical dish went well with beer.

It's been a while since I visited this place since it opened. I got the Roast Chicken and Egg Croque Monsieur (350 yen), Nightingale Bean Sweet Bean Paste Sandwich (270 yen), Egg Sandwich (255 yen), Peach Bread (244 yen), and Edamame Salted Kombu Cheese (205 yen). Among the traditional bread, I also bought a slightly unique bread! They were all good, but the Edamame Salted Kombu Cheese was both a bread and a snack, and I liked the taste. I will definitely visit again!

I visited a restaurant recommended by a senior. The toppings are generous and reasonably priced. The shop has an Instagram account called "Bread Tsukune" where you can see information about their products. They frequently post about new items, which makes me want to visit again and again. The shop is not very large, but they have a variety of unique breads on display, making it hard to choose. I purchased three items: an apple cream bread, camembert mentaiko bacon bread, and a white chocolate and tea bread. The apple cream bread had a crunchy texture with a hint of cinnamon, while the camembert bacon bread was rich and cheesy. The white chocolate and tea bread had a sweet chocolate flavor with a unique tea-infused dough. Overall, everything was delicious!

"Bread Tsukune's Peach with Plenty of Chunks - ¥213 Apple and Forest Nut - ¥210 The most popular "Peach with Plenty of Chunks" was so enjoyable that I ate it in the car on the way home as it was in the refrigerated case. Leaving aside the taste and ingredients, it's truly a fun and surprising idea. The second most popular "Apple and Forest Nut" had a genuine deliciousness to it. There were many fun-looking breads lined up. I heard the chef is from Maison Kayser in Tokyo. I definitely want to come back. Next time, I'll try the limited edition baguette or homemade sweet bean paste."

Located near Izumiya in Takano, Bread Tsukune has been open since 2018, so it's been four years already. They use levain liquid in their bread. They are open only four days a week, on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I bought a small company play (small) for 90 yen. They have a variety of bread suitable for meals. It is said that their bread is also used in French restaurants. When I cut it in half and toasted it a bit, it had a crunchy texture unique to hard bread. Another popular item is the Maritocco for 300 yen, a mix of whipped cream and sour cream. The bread is topped with almonds and sometimes filled with blueberries. It was very delicious, but at 300 yen and considering the calories, I can't eat it too often. The sandwich bread ranges from 200 to 300 yen. Despite being located in a residential area, the prices are a bit high, but it reflects the quality of the bakery. The meal bread is around 100 yen, making it affordable. The whole wheat bread is baked on Thursdays, so it seems they have specific baking days. Bread Tsukune is located at 48-4 Takanonishi Hirakicho, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture.

This bakery, often featured in magazines for its high-quality offerings, has a lovely homey atmosphere rooted in the local community. Here is a summary of the review: ✪ Tandoori Chicken with Tartar Sauce (230 yen) The tartar sauce, based on sweet potato, has a mellow flavor. The chicken is well-spiced and delicious. ✪ Tea Bran (210 yen) The number one popular bread. The gentle sweetness of white chocolate and the flavor of black tea are excellent. ✪ Marron Chocolat (210 yen) The outer layer is a chocolate-flavored cookie dough covering the bread like a melon pan. Inside, there is a gentle sweet milk chocolate cream with plenty of chestnuts. This will appeal to everyone. ✪ Mentaiko Bacon with Shiso (190 yen) Recommended by the shop owner, this side dish bread. Mentaiko naturally goes well with bread, but it's even better with shiso. By the way, the mentaiko is not too spicy, so even kids can enjoy it. ✪ Apple Stollen (1980 yen) Stollen with plenty of spices using apple liqueur. It has a crumbly texture with just the right amount of sweetness. It is filled with apples, raisins, and walnuts.

In a certain information magazine originating from Kansai (featuring bakeries), "Bread Tsukune" was featured as the top shop on the page for Sakyo Ward. I like their meticulous and authentic bread, as well as the cozy atmosphere of a bakery rooted in the local community. ⚫︎ Pork Pastrami & Cheese Sandwich (320 yen) A delicious sandwich with Oyama Ham's pork pastrami, fresh watercress, and cheese. The dressing is light to bring out the flavors of the ingredients. The bread has walnuts in it, adding a fun texture. ⚫︎ Danish Cream Puff (230 yen) *A bread limited to events. I purchased it at a bread market. It looked delicious as recommended by the staff. Inside the moist Danish pastry is a rich vanilla cream with vanilla beans. It's not just a hybrid of Danish and cream puff, it feels like a completely new type of bread. ⚫︎ Forest Nut Bread (230 yen) A bread with banana cream and sliced almonds on top. The slightly sweet banana cream is so delicious, I wish there were more of it. The ample sliced almonds are crispy and fragrant. ⚫︎ Ginger Petit (85 yen) A bread with plenty of honey-soaked ginger. It's a sweet bread with a fluffy texture, perfect for breakfast in its petit size.

Tsukune-san... Although the name sounds like a yakitori tsukune shop, it's actually a bakery. I was curious about what kind of bread they have, and it turns out they have a lot of bread that I want to try. I carefully selected two and bought them: "Amande Fruite" for 260 yen (tax included) and "Canel Cafe Blanc" for 185 yen (tax included). Amande is a bread only available on weekends. It has rum-soaked dried fruits and finely chopped almonds in it. Canel is a bread only available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I really liked this one. It's made of cinnamon dough! And it has coffee and white chocolate. I usually don't like white chocolate much, but with cinnamon and coffee, it's delicious!

I visited this bakery shortly after it opened, and I didn't have any negative impressions. However, I stopped going because they didn't have many lunch options like savory bread or sandwiches, making it inconvenient. But when I went back after a few years, it was completely different. They had a wide variety of savory bread, sandwiches, and sweet pastries. The bread also seemed to taste better. The savory bread was a bit pricey at around 350 yen each, but they were filled with lots of ingredients and quite filling. Two of them would make you full (I usually eat at least three savory breads). The service was good, even though the new staff seemed inexperienced, they were properly trained in handling the bread, like letting it cool properly (which many other shops on Kitaoji Street fail to do). The only downside was that the plain bread had a slight smell common in cheap bread. But the texture was fluffy and excellent.

A stylish shop with a wide variety of bread options.

A bakery featured in a women's magazine or a home magazine with a bread special. The owner is from Maison Kayser. All bread made with levain. I visited the shop because I had the chance to go nearby. It was a cloudy day with the possibility of rain. The temperature was not too high, not really ideal for bread, but I went around 3 pm on a weekday. Some items were sold out, but most were available for selection. Unfortunately, the last egg sandwich in a coppe bread was sold out. It looked delicious and was reasonably priced. Next time, I'll buy that. Despite the owner being from Maison Kayser, I thought it would be a hardcore bread shop, but it felt more like a friendly neighborhood bakery. Also, due to the location, the prices were more affordable than I expected. Items purchased. Prices include tax. ● Honey bread loaf (Yamagashi) 30% off as it was baked the day before, originally priced at 300 yen. Be careful, as it tends to burn when toasted due to high sugar content. ● Whole wheat cereal bread half loaf mini square bread. Originally priced at 175 yen. Enjoy the crunchy cereal texture. ● Cream bread 178 yen ● An butter 230 yen Popular number 2. ● Pistachio raisin 205 yen ● Chocolate cream ball 195 yen Recommended by the owner. ● Orange brioche 150 yen ● Levain raisin walnut 1/4 216 yen Tasty, but disappointing to use yeast food. ● Fermented butter croissant 184 yen Not a chewy type, relatively soft. ● Orange, lemon, and hazelnut 200 yen Looks hard but soft when eaten. One of my favorites among the bread I bought this time. ● Campagne plain 90 yen Used in the nearby restaurant La Pardeux. Goes well with butter, simple and plain bread. ● Ciabatta 108 yen ● Tea bran 185 yen Soft bread with Earl Grey tea leaves and white chocolate. Number one in popularity. ● A sweet-looking hard bread turned out to be soft. Contains diced chestnuts inside. ● Strawberry maritotsu 300 yen Sour cream and strawberry sandwich. Much more delicious than Kudamo's strawberry maritotsu. They have a variety of bread and affordable prices, so I would like to visit again if I'm nearby. They have a wide range of bread loaves, so I would like to try a different one next time.

I went to buy bread. A small bakery. I bought items like sandwich bread, croissants, etc. The honey-infused sandwich bread was delicious. The croissants were also tasty. There were many other options like hard breads, sweet breads, and more. Thank you for the meal.
