back to shirokane takanawa

Thursday, I went to Shirokane Takanawa to revisit Maruichi Bagel.

It had been almost a year.

I purchased two everything bagels and one seven grain honey

Sliced them and put them in the freezer.

Checked out Backerei Blau Berg, a tiny bakery.

Picked up their pretzel which I put into the freezer, to try another day.

I had their teriyaki chicken and egg salad bread for lunch on Thursday, filled to the gills! love!

Croquante, pieces of puff pastry stuck together with caramel (?), not sweet and was kind of disappointing, didn't have too much flavor after the teri chicken bread...

The marron pie...so delicious! whole chestnuts as well as some cake wrapped with puff pastry.

Sweet, salty, buttery, flaky...love!

Want to go back to try other items.
Maison d'Ahni's (counter clockwise) Gateau Basque a la creme, Gateau Basque au chocolat, Sable Breton & Financier, which were nice with wine.

Buttery, flaky, moist, love!

Want to go back to try their cakes.

It was blazing on Thursday, but I'm glad I was able to get out and about.
