Brioche dore brioche and croissant

Brioche, a sweet bread originating in France. Rich dough bread with plenty of eggs and butter, generally in the shape of a colon and a round shape. It has a long history of origin in the 16th century, but it is not so major in Japan, and about 20 to 30% of all bakeries are located in Tokyo, which is relatively common (experience of the author).

Do you know the bakery "Brioche Dore" that bears the name of such brioche?
