A character in the drama used to work at a Tokyo bakery which was modeled after Ginza Kimuraya
Ginza Kimuraya apparently created the anpan and has been in business since 1869
If you are interested in Ginza Kimuraya's history, please look here.
It was my first time to visit Ginza Kimuraya so I wasn't too sure what line I was supposed to be in, I asked one of the people working there and he explained what was what.When you first enter the shop, the different types of anpan are being sold…i think they had 8 different types.
I purchased their bread filled with kuromame (black beans) and their anpan from this area
I purchased their medium boiled egg curry pan
(delicious, but I wish there were just a little more curry in there...wonder how these places keep the egg oozy?!)
and their an butter...
(a "soft" french bread filled with sweet bean paste and whipped butter)
the bread was a little hard and dry but overall delicious...this one was in an area of pre-packaged items...

Whatever line you stand in, pay for what you purchase in the respective line.
I paid at the anpan line for the anpan and black bean bread and then at the other types of bread line for the curry pan and an butter...
They have restaurants that serve sandwiches as well as western style foods on the upper floors...would like to try them in the future...I'll be back.

I was surprised that the kuromame bread was actually filled with all sorts of beans not just black ones.
The beans were slightly sweetened and the bread for both were similar to sweet bread type of bread.
Delicious!
