Kifukudo

Smooth or chunky red bean paste? At Kifukudo, choosing your favourite filling is part of the pleasure. One customer who took home a koshian anpan praised the pairing of fluffy, tender bread with smooth, gently sweetened paste. Others have enjoyed tsubuan anpan, where the beans retain their texture. Try one of each to compare the smooth filling with the bite of whole beans.

For more variety, there are options such as sweet potato paste and pistachio. The menu describes the pistachio cream bun as generously filled with smooth, rich cream. One diner found that the slight bitterness of the coffee in the coffee anpan went well with the sweetness of the filling, making it an appealing choice if you fancy something different from the classics. Cream buns are another option beyond anpan. Some customers have remarked on the custard’s smooth texture and generous amount of cream, making one a good counterpart to a bean-filled bun for a taste comparison.

There is an eat-in space where you can pause over bread and a drink. The hot coffee, made with a blend of Arabica beans from different origins, comes in mild and strong styles. There is also iced coffee made with espresso, as well as café lattes. Choose a drink to go with the sweetness of your bun, then enjoy it in the shop or take it away, depending on your plans.
