Freshly baked bread come out from the oven during 11-12 o’clock and 2-3 o’clock, with spreading the fragrant aroma throughout the store.
White bread is ready around 2 o’clock. It cannot be cut down when it is still warm from the oven, but we sell whole loaves on request. Our “Hotel White Bread” and “Five-grain Bread” are very popular as well. Pre-cut bread are available. Don’t miss them.
We support cashless payment.
Lunch and Cafe/Restaurant
Lunch and drinks are served at the cafe-restaurant. It is used as the dining space of our shop, and you can bring bread, cakes and lunch boxes in to enjoy after checking out.
For lunch, we serve dishes that make the best use of local ingredients. The menu is based on the traditional cuisine of Amami Island such as “Nankotsu-don” (rice bowl dish topped with traditional simmered pork cartilage) and “Keihan” (Chicken soup on rice topped with shredded chicken, julienned strips of thin omelet, thin sliced Shiitake Mushroom, fine chopped Tankan Citrus peel, chopped green onion and ginger).
“Shima Juuri (island cuisine) Lunch” is much loved by both travelers and local customers. “Amami Curry” uses island turmeric.
Why not try our taste of Amami with Mukumuku.
Cake
Cookie choux (cream puff), cheese cake, chiffon cake, rare sugar cake and some more products are displayed in the showcase. You can take out and also eat in the dining space.
Cream puff is covered with cookie dough, and the texture of the outside enhances the taste of custard cream inside. It flies off the showcase, no wonder.
Chiffon cakes are flavored with local specialty fruits.
Try our “Passion Fruit Chiffon Cake” which won the first prize in Amami No.1 Contest! “Tankan Citrus Chiffon Cake” is also highly recommended.
How about having our tasty sweet with afternoon tea?
