Bakery melon bread burger is also popular

Another thing I would like to introduce this time is melon bread, which is also popular in Japan. Bakeries are lined up all over the city in France. The number of stores is very large, but the lineup of the menu is quite different from that of Japan. In France, the staple food is baguette, sandwich is baguette sand, and sweet bread is croissant and bread au chocolat.

 

At “AKI Boulangerie” in the opera district in Paris, the types of bread that are familiar in Japan, such as anpan and curry bread, are on sale. And one of the popular menus is melon bread. Not only simple products, but also a product called “melon bread burger” with fresh cream and fruits sandwiched between them seems to be popular these days.

 

A simple melon bread costs 2.2 euros (about 280 yen), and a melon bread burger costs 4.2 euros (about 540 yen). Melon bread burgers are a high-class category, as baguettes and croissants in ordinary bakeries cost around 1 euro each, but on weekdays as well as on holidays, a large number of Parisians line up to buy “Japanese bread”. It was made. When I bought one, it also came with a small plastic spoon that came with ice cream, so it might be like eating a parfait or crepe.

 

The environment surrounding restaurants in “France, the land of gastronomy” has changed drastically due to the corona. Most of the menus offered at restaurants that are open only for take-out require forks and knives, and most of the dishes are supposed to be eaten warm. Among them, foods such as rice balls that are easy to carry and can be eaten deliciously even when cold are valuable. Environmental changes caused by the corona disaster have reaffirmed the merits of Japanese food culture and are supporting its penetration overseas.
