This rich bread is made with fresh cream and eggs. You'll be amazed at how fluffy and moist it is the moment you pick it up.

The appeal of this bread lies in the way the filling is cooked in the oven, which is unique to Yamashoku bread, and the contrast between the deep browning of the crust and crust.

This is the "Croissant" (194 yen).

Danish pastries are one of Yakich's specialty breads. The most popular among them is the crunchy croissant, made with cultured butter and with a deep flavor!

You can't miss the "Tandoori Chicken Sandwich" (420 yen).

The perfectly spicy tandoori chicken and purple cabbage coleslaw go perfectly with the rich flavor of the rolls that are characteristic of "Yakichi." This is a hearty dish that will leave you feeling satisfied and satisfied.

This is the "Cinnamon Roll" (230 yen).

The crunchy texture of the compressed pie crust is so strong that once you've tasted it, you'll never want to go back. The bold, chunky walnuts are also irresistible.
