Welcome to this edition.
I visited Asakusa to try a sweet that is currently a hot topic both in Japan and overseas!
We are heading toward the Asakusa Kagetsudo Main Store!
Starting from the Kaminarimon Gate, we turned left at the main hall of the Sensoji Temple.
We headed toward Nishisando Street in the opposite direction from Sky Tree.
We saw a long line to the left once we entered Nishisando Street!
This must be it!
The sweet we are looking for today is the original jumbo melon bread from Asakusa Kagetsudo.
On weekends, over 2,000 pieces of this bread are sold per day!
This bread is not only popular in Japan, as it has also been introduced on overseas television programs.
Apparently many foreign visitors visit Asakusa looking for this bread!
We waited in line to buy the bread with feelings of anticipation.
The smell was irresistible!
(Pieces of jumbo melon bread displayed in the showcase, they look delicious!)
We finally got a piece of the bread!
This freshly-baked large melon bread was almost as big as one’s face and very fluffy!!
Let’s try it!
This melon bread that is leavened using three times the amount of time as usual and baked with tender loving care is somewhat crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle.
The sweetness is also at just the right level, so it is really delicious!!
Thanks to the addictive flavor, we feel like we could eat any amount!!
There is a bargain price if you buy a set of three, making it perfect for buying for yourself and your family and friends!
In addition to melon bread, the store also features menu items perfect for the summer such as fluffy kakigori (crushed ice) and soft-serve ice cream and old-fashioned items including bottled milk and ramune (old-fashioned Japanese carbonated soft drink) that you can enjoy in a retro eating space!
If you visit Asakusa, you should definitely try this jumbo melon bread with an irresistible texture that combines fluffiness and crispiness!
