Japanese are very French, in that, you have boulangeries and patisseries which are always separated. You rarely find a shop that sells both cakes and bread. This is Anderson's boulangerie in Ueno, one of the bigger shops. Being in Japan I eat bread just about every day and so do many Japanese. Most of the boulangeries are open kitchen, in that you can see the bakers in action. As the season changes so do the selection of specialty breads that are available. Being that its fall you see alot of breads that contain nuts, dried raisins, figs, and even pumpkin. And with winter on the way, Christmas breads like stollen is making an appearance.
