Furendo Honten Wakamiya-ten

For a morning bakery stop, the handmade piroshki are a good place to start. One visitor describes them as generously filled with glass noodles, minced meat and onion, while another praises the satisfying filling wrapped in chewy dough. They are also among the shop’s recommended options, making one a tempting choice if you’re in the mood for savoury bread.

Egg lovers may also be drawn to the “Tappuri Tamago” (Generously Filled Egg) sandwich. Visitors have noted that the filling spills out beyond the bread and that the soft bread is packed with egg, making it an appealing pick for anyone who enjoys egg sandwiches. The salt bread has also received specific praise for its crisp exterior, fluffy centre, buttery flavour and seasoning with Guérande salt. To add something sweet, options include an an-butter bun, melon bread and uguisu-an (sweet green-pea paste), so you can put together a selection ranging from savoury breads to pastries.
