Interior view of Croix-Rousse

[Croix-Rousse] in Nishinotoin Shijo is famous for its homemade bread made by a chef with a background in French cuisine.

Located in Nishinotoin Shijo, this bakery has a long line of customers waiting in line even before it opens. The appeal of the bakery's breads is that they taste like a la carte dishes, created by the owner-chef, who trained as a chef in a French restaurant for four years before returning to Japan and changing his job to become a baker.

From the front, cream cheese and lemon Danish (230 yen), a crispy Danish with a fresh cheese flavor. Vulcano (walnut and white chocolate) kneaded with white chocolate and walnuts: 210 yen. Straight-baked bread with a chunky texture: 330 yen.

The store is filled with a wide variety of breads, including French breads of all sizes, sweets, hamburgers, and more. The directly baked bread is made with 100% Kyoto-grown wheat and has a soft and fluffy texture that is irresistible.
