【Visit Date】Weekday at 3:00 PM.【Queue】One group.【Purpose of Visit】Takeout for breakfast the next morning.【Reason for Visit】Stopped by while in Nihonbashi. Visited "365 Days and Nihonbashi," recently selected as one of the top 100 bakeries in Japan. Bought bread for tomorrow's breakfast, along with some for the family. Since everyone in the family has a sweet tooth, we ended up choosing mostly sweet bread. ▪️Honey Toast 400 yen: Toast generously soaked in honey. It's more filling than it looks, with a satisfying texture. ▪️Apple Crumble 303 yen: Looks like melon bread, but has apples inside. The surface crumbles a bit, making it slightly difficult to eat, but the taste is delicious. ▪️Croquant Chocolat 454 yen: A signature bread from 365 Days. Filled with small chocolate chips, it has a sweet, fluffy texture. The gold foil imprint on one piece adds a touch of luxury. ▪️Scone Macadamia 368 yen: A dense texture packed with macadamia nuts. An orthodox scone with chocolate sticks inside. The bakery, located inside a department store, is easy to enter, and although there is only a small eat-in space, it's a nice spot for a quick break. Thank you for the meal.

Popular bakery "Shingyou no Pan-ya" in Tokyo, Chuo-ku, Nihonbashi at Nihonbashi Takashimaya offers a creamy and delicious Chocolat Croissant priced at ¥422. Check out their Instagram @tsukasan777 for more, and also follow them on Twitter @tsukasan2010.

On a typical Wednesday around 7:00 PM, I visited for the second time after work. There were two people ahead of me, so I waited for about 2 minutes for my turn. I tried the Lemon Milk French (¥368), which looked amazing and had a delightful texture—kind of bouncy and delicious. I wonder how they manage to keep those tiny beads fixed in there? The Half-Sized Square Rice Cake (¥184) was intriguing. How does everyone manage to eat such small square cakes? Lastly, I had the 365 Days Brioche (¥206), which was labeled as a specialty.

Visited a renowned bakery listed in Tabelog's top 100 picks for the first time. With its message of "The new breads of the next era, where even the shapes and techniques have meaning," I felt intrigued. Despite the upscale ambiance, the atmosphere was welcoming. The female staff provided excellent customer service, offering detailed explanations of the products. I tried: - Croquant Chocolat (¥422): Their signature item, visually appealing with a chocolatey appearance. The brioche chocolate dough was of high quality but didn't quite resonate with me. The combination of ganache, crunchy puff, and the bread's texture felt somewhat disjointed, though it was still decent. I couldn't fully appreciate it. - Half Loaf (¥184): Small in size but exquisite in quality, showcasing the excellence of their ingredients. - Chocolate Bread (¥184): Also small-sized, but you could tell it was made with premium chocolate. Overall, after trying the Croquant Chocolat, I didn't feel compelled to photograph the other breads. That's all for now.

On the way back, I visited "365 Days and Nihonbashi." It's located on the first floor of Takashimaya, Shin-Kan. I ordered "Lemon Milk France," "Matcha and Red Bean," and an iced cafe latte. It was my first time trying the Lemon Milk France. The pearl croquant on the surface is adorable. The yellow part inside is a sweet lemon cream, and unexpectedly, it also has cheese cream. The refreshing lemon flavor with a hint of cheese saltiness was delightful. The Matcha and Red Bean had a refined and gentle sweetness in the red bean paste. It contained whole beans, and the combination of red bean and beans was delicious. The matcha part had plenty of crispy almonds, adding a fragrant touch. When eaten together with croissant dough and red bean, it became a delightful taste of Japanese flavors. It was my favorite matcha and red bean croissant. I also had a slice of sample bread when I ate in the store. It was fluffy and delicious. The white coarse sweet bean bread seems to be recommended. Thank you for the meal. #NihonbashiGourmet #NihonbashiCafe #NihonbashiBakery #365DaysAndNihonbashi #365Days #NihonbashiTakashimayaShinKan #LemonMilkFrance #MilkFrance #Croissant #Diamant #Matcha #RedBean #Croquant #TabelogTop100 #BreadLover

Located inside Nihonbashi Takashimaya, so you won't get lost. Each of the exhibiting stores has a distinctive display, like a collection of street shops, making it enjoyable just to wander around. While the store spaces aren't particularly large, a variety of bread is showcased. What's surprising is the size and price of these bread. They are compact but priced quite high. Here are the items ordered: Croissant ¥303, Quiche Lorraine ¥616, and Eve ¥357. The taste is indeed delicious. Good ingredients are used abundantly, and with each bite, the gentle taste of butter feels comforting. Especially the croissant is delicious. The condensed flavor spreads in the mouth with each bite. It might be just the right size, leaving you wanting a bit more. Next time, I'd like to try a different kind of bread.

At the entrance of Nihonbashi Takashimaya S.C, there is a bakery affiliated with 365 Days. Of course, they have those grainy chocolate bread rolls. It can get crowded on weekends, but on weekdays, you can usually buy without much wait. This time, I had canelé and meat sauce bread for eat-in. I also enjoyed it with iced tea. They reheat the meat sauce bread right there. The hearty bread with meat sauce was delicious. Eat-in space accommodates up to 7 people, and it was quite busy on this day. 365 Days is a casual place you can easily drop by, and I couldn't resist buying something.

After finishing shopping at Mitsukoshi in Nihonbashi, I decided to take a short walk and headed to Takashimaya. I stopped by a well-known bakery on the 1st floor of the new building in Nihonbashi Takashimaya, which I had wanted to visit for a while. The bakery has a glass exterior, and you can see them baking bread inside. The selling space is compact, and there were always a few customers when I visited, confirming its popularity. I selected bread from the showcase and communicated my choices to the staff. There were some unique bread options, but since it was my first visit, I chose the "Croquant Chocolat" and the "Azuki Red Bean Bun." The Croquant Chocolat had a delightful texture with chocolate bits, and the Azuki Red Bean Bun had a fluffy dough filled with elegant sweet red bean paste. I'll try different bread on my next visit.

I visited this bakery because I wanted to try the Croquant Chocolat, which was popular some time ago. In addition to the Croquant Chocolat, there were many types of bread, making it hard to decide what to buy. I chose several items that caught my eye and took them home. One that I particularly enjoyed was the "Hatake" (¥519 including tax). It was a Japanese-style French toast inspired by the fields of contracted farmers. The miso flavor was delicious, and it was generously filled with vegetables, which made it very satisfying. It's more expensive than the bread at my local bakery, so I can't eat it every day, but I want to visit occasionally because there are other breads that interest me.

I went to 365 Days and Nihonbashi-san! We went for lunch, and there wasn't much of a line, so we casually entered the shop. There were many varieties of freshly baked bread, and the staff politely explained each one. We decided to eat in. It was nice that they would reheat the items that had been out for a bit. We ordered Croquant Chocolat, Tomato and Olive, Curry Bread, and cold brew coffee. My partner ordered Hatake, Cinnamon Roll, and Amakusa Orange (juice). The Croquant Chocolat, a popular item, was indeed delicious with its crispy texture outside and gooey chocolate inside. The Tomato and Olive had a perfect balance with the strong flavors of tomato and olive inside the bread. The Curry Bread wasn't fried but baked well, with a gentle and easy-to-eat keema curry flavor. The cold brew coffee that complemented each bread was exquisite. Hatake felt like a collection of the best parts of pizza in bread form, with the aroma of herbs adding a delightful accent. The Cinnamon Roll had a gentle cinnamon flavor that was quite satisfying. The Amakusa Orange juice was refreshing with a hint of grapefruit. Although I generally enjoy bread when eaten in, this was the first time I encountered bread this delicious. It felt like a gentle and delicious challenge urging me to try various bread again.

It's a bakery on the first floor of Takashimaya in Nihonbashi, selected as one of the top 100 stores. They have many small-sized bread with a wide variety, and I felt like buying a lot. I got a takeout of a pastry called "Eve," which is like a croissant. It had an orange-flavored chocolate croissant taste, and it was delicious! ◎

After buying various items at a shop in Yoyogi, I realized that simple bread is the most delicious. ・Baguette 314 yen A baguette with a soft crust. Easy to eat. The taste is quite ordinary. ・Kitanokaori 260 yen Limited to Nihonbashi A good chewy texture with a strong wheat aroma, still delicious I tend to buy too much all the time, so I restrained myself this time.

I'm delighted that 365 Days, a place I've always wanted to visit, has opened a store in Takashimaya in Nihonbashi. Yoyogi is not a place I often go unless I have plans with someone, so this is great news for me. The chocolate bread, their specialty, was smaller than I expected, but all the bread looks delicious. The prices are quite high, but I understand because they use high-quality ingredients and the location is prime. Since I'm having lunch at home today, I bought two types of bread for breakfast. Even the paper wrapping the bread is cute! ★365 Days Shokupan 346 yen ★Fukuoka Shokupan 411 yen Both have a subtle sweetness and are soft and fluffy, really delicious. The Fukuoka Shokupan is even more chewy! Both are truly delicious. On the first day, I just sliced a bit to taste. Tomorrow, I plan to toast it and spread some butter. Request: I hope they also sell regular-sized shokupan for making sandwiches!

I stopped by in the early evening on a weekday. There were still a few popular breads left, but I decided to try something different this time. It's considered one of the top Tokyo bakeries despite its small size and high prices, but with more bakeries popping up, it's getting harder to stand out. It's still delicious, but I'm starting to question if it's really worth the price.

There was an eat-in corner, so I stopped by to adjust my schedule. I had the bread available all 365 days and ordered a special juice. Considering the price, it deserves high praise. It was nice to eat the bread while watching the artisan at work.

【2022 Top 100 Restaurants】After getting off at Tokyo Station and having about an hour until my reservation, I walked to Takashimaya. Inside the department store, right at the entrance, there's a bakery called "365 Days and Nihonbashi." I came to buy a baguette to make the most of the Echire butter I bought recently, but I got distracted by a large wheat-chocolate-like bread right at the entrance. ◆ Milk Tea Bread: ¥440 ◇ Croquant Chocolat: ¥429 This is the big wheat-chocolate-like bread. Does it look like coffee beans? Since there was an eat-in corner, I paired it with iced tea. It's a bread with chocolate coating around small round grains, and underneath, there's chocolate cream. It's a bit pricey, but it's delicious. However, it's so rich that I only needed two bites. ◇ Baguette: ¥314 I bought this to take home and will toast it tomorrow to use as a test bed for the Echire butter.

Ordered Croquant Chocolat and coffee at the cafe. My friend got Honey Toast. I've always been curious because a bread enthusiast I know frequents the main store. I didn't want to wait in line much, so I thought I'd try it someday. The bread is soft but has a resilient texture, with crispy chocolate layers in between. There's a rich chocolate sauce at the bottom. Delicious! I shared a bite with my friend, and they accidentally dropped the crispy chocolate, so be careful when eating, haha. The Honey Toast had a crunchy texture (more like crispy) and was delicious too. Thanks for the meal!

"365 Days and Nihonbashi: When I went to Nihonbashi in the evening, many items were already sold out, but they had plain scones! I love the chunky texture – so delicious ♡ Did you know August 25th is considered Summer Christmas?! I was curious about the Summer Stollen, but it was a bit pricey, so I decided to pass on it this time."

Aniko-san once a month. We found ourselves back here again, captivated by Aniko-san's wonderful cooking and wine, starting from lasagna last time. Aniko-san's restaurant is from the Marche region of Italy, known for its abundance of seafood and mountain delicacies, influenced by both northern and southern regions. It's a delightful mix of familiar and unfamiliar dishes for us Japanese, creating that sense of a close encounter with foreign culture. This time, we indulged in meat-stuffed olive fritters and creme fritte (custard fritters) paired with wine, followed by chilled capellini with eel, Marche-style grilled tuna, and pasta with wild boar and black pig ragout. I had decided to try the capellini this time. Unlike last time when the excitement of finding lasagna on the menu overshadowed the chilled capellini, this time I remained composed. Thanks to my pre-visit research, I had just watched Chef Inose from this restaurant on the Cooking Kingdom YouTube channel preparing chilled capellini. While it was sakuramasu (cherry salmon) with orange-colored sauce on the show, this time it was eel with green capellini. The marinated and lightly blanched eel was refreshing yet full of flavor, perfectly complementing the sauce reminiscent of Genovese sauce with its fresh, green notes. If it weren't for the two of us dining together, I might have almost finished two servings by myself. The Marche-style grilled tuna, coated in green herb breadcrumbs, was a delightful surprise with its unique flavor. The aroma of the grill combined with the crispy coating enhanced the flavor of the tuna remarkably. Like the popular lasagna from our last visit, this dish also possessed a convincing appeal that explained its popularity. And the wild boar and pig ragout. The pasta, made with "bazanjacco," a type of dough incorporating potatoes, had a chewy texture that, when combined with the coarsely ground wild boar and pig mince, created a sensation akin to being in a mountain cabin. It was smoky, juicy, and brought a sense of relaxation, like sitting by a fireplace with family. Dishes that induce a feeling of relaxation when eaten are truly remarkable, and this "bazanjacco" pasta was exactly that. Since it's available regularly, I'll definitely be coming back for more. Once again, it was a delightful experience, and as we left the restaurant, I couldn't help but look forward to coming back and enjoying more delicious meals after a hard day's work. Oh man, it was so delicious!

Visited on a weekday in August 2023 at 14:40. This is the branch of the popular '365 Days' in Nihonbashi, Yoyogi Park. Eating in requires ordering at least one drink. They offer Bolognese (530 yen) and Japanese black tea (440 yen). The Bolognese is delicious, rich with plenty of cheese. It's so good that you'd want to have it with pasta. The bread, though it looks like a baguette, is dense yet pleasantly chewy with a bit of springiness, almost like a hybrid of bagel and baguette. It was really delicious. Thank you for the meal. [At the time of visit] Food score on Tabelog: 3.74, Number of reviews: 791.

Located just 3 to 5 minutes on foot from Nihonbashi Station is Bakery 365 Days. Situated on the first floor of Nihonbashi Takashimaya's new building, this stylish bakery was selected as one of the top 100 bakeries in Tokyo in 2022. With a chic atmosphere and seating available for dining in, it's a perfect spot to leisurely enjoy some bread. Opening at 7:30 in the morning, it's ideal for a morning treat. I tried their 365 Days Croissant and White Bean Paste Anpan this time. The chef, questioning traditional bread-making methods, employs techniques like using instant yeast with a mild aroma and adjusting water ratios to create bread with a distinct texture. Each bread is a masterpiece, with a perfect balance of crispy and moist textures and rich flavors. The croissant boasts a crispy exterior and a moist interior, while the White Bean Paste Anpan combines smooth white bean paste with fluffy bread. True to its name, both are irresistibly delicious and worth savoring every day! A must-visit for bread enthusiasts, this popular bakery offers a unique experience compared to others. Bon appétit!
