Chiba bakery "Peter Pan"
Eat and walk around bakeries all over the country!

There are many bakeries all over the country. So far, I have reported on the exquisite breads from all over the world, although it is only a part of it.

When it comes to popular stores, spots tend to hit Tokyo, but there are still many hidden (?) Famous stores nationwide! So this time, I would like to introduce 5 recommended bakeries outside of Tokyo. This is the place I want to go even if I go out on holidays!

● Chiba / Peterpan

Peter Pan , a freshly baked bread shop that has stores in Chiba Prefecture. A variety of sweet breads and side dish breads are lined up, from basic breads such as butter rolls, croissants, and breads to unique breads such as "local anpan" and "bacon and eggs", including the signature product "Genkiin Melon Bread".

Anyway, there are so many kinds, so I'm at a loss, but if you are new to this, please try melon bread! It is inevitable that the fluffy mouthfeel and the plump scent of butter will not stop your tongue.

It will be open all year round in 2017, and all stores are scheduled to open in 2018 from January 4th. Check the official website for the business schedule of each store!

● Kanagawa / Hoshi Panya

A beloved bakery, Hoshi Panya, located in Isogo-ku, Yokohama. It may be my favorite bakery I have visited in the past. Bread with the theme of stars and space such as "Earth", "Galaxy", and "Alien" is baked in a cute shop that looks like you jumped into a picture book.

Especially recommended breads are "Mars sausage", "Earth bread" and "Kojiboshi". Mars sausage is a wiener bread that is visually appealing, earth bread is a salt butter bread that is rumored to "reproduce the taste of the earth 99%", and kojiboshi is a chewy dough. It is a popular product.

The business is already closed by the end of the year, and the business is scheduled to start from January 5th at the beginning of the year.

● Okayama / Boulangerie mugi

A bakery, mugi , located in the beautiful district of Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture. Natural yeast bread is lined up in the store. A lineup of fragrant jewels such as hard bread, rye bread, sweet bread, and meal bread.

It's delicious because it's simple! No matter what you eat, you will feel that you are a talented person.

It is said that it will be open all year round. There is also a cafe on the 2nd floor of the shop, so why not stop by after a break for a walk in Kurashiki.

● Tottori / Kobe Bakery

"Mizuki Shigeru Road" is located in Sakaiminato City, Tottori Prefecture, the hometown of the late Shigeru Mizuki. Here, you can eat various "Yokai gourmet" related to "GeGeGe no Kitaro", but the Kobe Bakery Mizuki Shigeru Road store is one of the hottest ones. You can eat character bread such as "Kitaro" and "Nezumi Otoko".

It looks a little surprising, but when you try it, the taste is reassuring, such as custard bread and butter-rich pie. You can use it as a souvenir, or you can have a coffee shop on the spot.

It will be open until 15:00 on December 31st during the year, and will start on January 4th during the New Year holidays.

● Osaka City Bakery

THE CITY BAKERY has been loved by New Yorkers for over 20 years. The world's first foray into the store was opened in Grand Front Osaka. Along with the bakery, the restaurant " Brasserie Rubin " produced by the store is also open.
