Gontran Cherrier Jiyugaoka

Ever-popular boulangerie Gontran Cherrier has found a seventh Tokyo home near Jiyugaoka Station. Their claim to fame comes from the 3,500 croissants they once managed to sell in one day, and their 40-odd bread range includes fancy names such as Mont Blanc, the Bretonnais Kouign Amann and Pan Melon (no, don't you dare say melon pan). Watch out for their Jiyugaoka special, the Basil Craquelin Viennois, which combines slightly sweet white chocolate with basil. Your tastebuds will thank you.
