back to kichijoji

I wanted to send something to my host mom for her birthday next week, so I went to Presqu'ile last Thursday.

Since they open at 11:00, and I was about 30 minutes early, I decided to buy something for lunch, and went back to Boulangerie Epee

The last time we visited this bakery was pre-pandemic

Their sausage danish was delicious! the sausage was meaty and had a nice snap, there was a slightly sweet glaze on it and the danish (puff pastry) was flaky...love
Their kouign amann was different from others I have tried, the caramel was on the harder side but the pastry was super flaky
I spotted their carrot cake as I was about to pay...glad I purchased this, it was moist with a lot of walnuts, the cream cheese frosting had some lemon zest in it...love!
After ordering something at Presqu'ile to be sent to my host mom, I walked back to the station 

And stumbled upon this area
And this cute french restaurant

It was a nice day but the air was icy.

Still I was glad to be out and about.
