Before work, I decided to make a detour to Meguro Street in Naka-Meguro for breakfast. I heard that this bakery, "リチュエル" (Rituel), is very particular about using high-quality ingredients such as organically grown wheat flour and fresh premium butter. They value traditional French bread-making methods and handcrafting. The name "Rituel" means "ritual" or "habit" in French, expressing their desire for customers to enjoy special moments in their daily lives. They carefully select ingredients like butter and flour, adjust every detail, and take time to bring out the original deliciousness. Their daily breads have a rich flavor that you can savor. Pairing a freshly baked croissant with a cappuccino creates a nice combination. It was a delicious meal.

The store was clean and had a spacious parking lot, which is convenient for those who drive. There is a restaurant attached and it was bustling. A loaf of bread costs around 500 yen and it is very fluffy. The baguette has a chewy texture inside. There are unique bread varieties that are tempting. It is located in a residential area, so only locals may know about it. The bags are also very cute, showing a good sense of style.

There used to be a Bull Ange cafe, but now it has turned into Richeur. Being from the same chain, I didn't notice the change at all. I went there with my daughter and tried their morning set. We arrived at 9:30 am on a Sunday and found the parking lot full, mostly with Alfa Romeo cars. We had to park at a nearby parking lot. After ordering and paying, we finally sat down. It took a bit of time for our order to arrive. I ordered the Croque Madame for 1550 yen, while my daughter had the Bacon and Eggs for 1380 yen. I also couldn't resist ordering a croissant separately because it looked so delicious. The Croque Madame was generously topped with prosciutto and cheese, quite filling. My daughter enjoyed her Bacon and Eggs, especially the plentiful bacon at the bottom. Towards the end of our meal, the staff brought over the lunch menu, which seemed more affordable than the breakfast set. We might try their lunch menu next time. On our way out, we checked out the bread section, but it was quite pricey. Richeur used to be Escargot's pastry shop in Jiyugaoka, and I remember it being expensive. In comparison, Bull Ange had reasonably priced croissants, making it more accessible. Despite being part of the same chain, the pricing at Richeur is different, with sandwiches ranging from 500 to 700 yen, which seems a bit high. However, having a parking lot in this location is definitely convenient.

This is a bakery in Setagaya that I like. I especially enjoy their croissants. Of course, their escargot is famous and delicious, but they have a variety of other breads that make me want to try them all. On this day, I bought three types of berry bread. This shop also has a parking lot and is always bustling with customers, mostly ladies.

I found a shop on a sunny day while walking from Odakyu Odawara Line Odakyu Odawara Line Station. The shop, surrounded by large trees, has a spacious parking lot and a spacious interior. As soon as I entered the shop and saw the croissants and wrapping paper, I thought, "Wait, this looks familiar!" They also have shops in Isetan and Lumine in Shinjuku. The cafe restaurant attached to the shop is visible from a distance, but it seems like a relaxing place with a garden full of greenery. On that day, I bought... ● Edamame and sweet corn fromage baton Edamame, sweet corn, cheese, and pepper - a perfect combination, delicious. ● Non-fried donut-style sweet bean bun It has a donut-style dough but is not fried. It is sprinkled with powdered sugar, soft and chewy. The sweet bean paste is smooth and delicious. I will definitely try out the cafe restaurant next time I have the chance.

I visited Lichuel, which opened in Todoroki. The bakery restaurant cafe has a spacious eat-in space, and I was able to spend a relaxing time there. What I had: - Escargot Gratin - Milk Brew Escargot is popular and I tried it! It's delicious and satisfying. Thank you for the meal!

I ordered spaghetti, bread, and a drink! I was surprised that the name of the restaurant had changed, but the atmosphere inside was still relaxing, and they had a toaster oven to warm up the bread, which was delicious. It seemed like they had slightly fewer types of bread now?

I went to Oyamadai and stopped by Richeur to buy some bread. When I think of Richeur, I usually think of escargot, but today I tried their Richeur croissant and caramel nut Danish. The Richeur croissant looked like a traditional croissant. It had a crispy texture and a buttery aroma that spread in my mouth. The caramel nut Danish had various nuts on top, with caramel sauce and cream in the middle. The nutty texture and the caramel's fragrant aroma complemented the Danish well. I'm now curious to try other breads besides escargot.

Originally, there was a place called Boulanges which has now been changed to Rituel, another restaurant under the Beaux Cruze Group. I'm not a big fan of the famous escargot dishes, but the bread at Beaux Cruze is of a higher quality compared to other places like Nihonbashi that I've tried before. The location is a bit far from the station, especially if you're coming from the Oimachi Line, where you have to climb a hill. However, for locals or those within a 5-minute drive, it's a good option for a morning cafe visit.

I had a delicious time with the Bacon Egg Sandwich for 350 yen, Baguette for 300 yen, and Bread for 490 yen, all with parking included.

A stylish bakery opened in Oyamadai. It is a bit on the outskirts of Tokyo, but worth the walk. Enjoy delicious bread in a cozy cafe. Makes you want to wake up early and have a luxurious morning.

I used the lunch menu. I had pasta for lunch and it was very delicious. The bread was free refills with a drink included. It cost around 1400 to 1800 yen, so the cost performance was decent. The portion was huge, so I wonder if anyone actually gets to the point of having bread refills, haha. They also had children's books, so it seems like a good place for families with kids.

I didn't understand how to order at first and ended up waiting at my seat for a long time. The bread I ordered, which had a prepayment system at the register, was delicious even when toasted. The Genovese dish was also tasty. The restaurant had parking available.

Too expensive. It was good a year ago but...
