I came in through Narita and arrived in Ueno, and since I was right there I finally dropped by Dominique Saibron, the croissant specialty shop inside Ueno Station that I’d been wanting to try for ages.
Mont Blanc croissant, panda croissant..
They sell these perverse croissants.. they were cute, so I’d been meaning to buy one someday, and now that I actually have, sure enough the plain croissant is the tastiest of the lot. Ueno does mean pandas, but even so, a panda croissant is a bit much..
Plain croissant
A freshly baked croissant really is delicious. A day later the taste was just so-so..
