Cafe El Greco in Kurashiki Bikan Quarter

Cafe El Greco is right in the middle of Kurashiki Bikan quarter. Since it opened in 1925, it is like a part of history of Bikan quarter itself.

Walk though the door and you are back in the old days. Cheesecake and cold drinks.

Some antiques are displayed in a gallery room. They look classy and valuable.

Let’s call it a day.

Hi there. It’s Mr. Wada back on duty. I would like to introduce a nice bakery PRIME in Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture.

Rustic Bread at Bakery PRIME (Kurashiki City)

Main stream of bread in Japan is soft & fluffy. However, there are alternatives and this is totally worth a try especially for those who love hard & crunchy rustic bread like me. Bakery PRIME is in Kurashiki City, to be specific near Aeon Mall Kurashiki (a 10-minute walk). We have seen this place on TV and wanted to stop by sometime.

We grabbed some bread at its eat-in space (couldn’t wait ’til we get home!)

Slices of mascobado which actually means brown sugar from the Philippines, were also awesome. A gap between outside (crunchy) and inside (fluffy) is very much enjoyable. Ingredients seem quality as well (according to what a sign says). This must add up to taste as well. Loved this nuts & dry-fruit bread on the right as well. Crunchiness of bread and nuts make perfect harmony.

OK, let’s call it a day.
