Two shops down from Any's Burger is this tiny bakery called Boulangerie Iena.
This one is called An Butter (sweet bean paste with butter).
The baguette is crisp when toasted, the butter gets all melty and with the sweet bean paste, a great combination.
(Similarly, the combination reminded me that my mom likes to heat up mochi that is filled with sweet bean paste with butter. The outside gets a bit crisp from the butter. The inside mochi gets a bit oozy.)
They have lots of hard type breads too.
Like this one filled with figs. Fruit in every bite.
And these cookies...they reminded me of the punitions we had in Paris. These had bits of orange in them but the texture was the same.
I'll be back.

Wait. An mochi and butter?
ReplyDeleteJust blew my mind.
How have I never tried this combo!
we usually have an mochi in the freezer Sheri, so to heat it up my mom usually does this with butter in a pan, the outside gets crispy and the inside oozy. Hope you like this combo :)
