Boulanger Vague

Japan’s appetite for bread is growing, with numerous speciality and internationally renowned bakeries opening shops across the city, selling pastries that can cost as much as a bowl of noodles. Boulanger Vague is a much needed exception, as the bakery offers 100 kinds of fresh-from-the- oven baked goods for only ¥100 each. You can find anything from sweet to savoury, including melonpan, muffins, curry buns, mentai (marinated pollock roe) camembert mini baguettes and Danish pastries. Handily, there’s an attached café, so you can sit and enjoy your bread while it’s warm.
