My friend and I went to Fugetsudo in Ginza to have some sweets and tea.
We had their seasonal sweet, a strawberry pie.
It looked very beautiful, and it was so good!
Also, they gave us their famous baked confectionery, Baumkuchen.
We had very comfortable time with very wonderful cake and tea.

My best bakery is “Le Petitmec” in Shinjuku recently, that came from Kyoto.
The bakery produced sandwiches cafe in Jingumae. I’m interested in their special deer burger, but unfortunately it was sold out in that time.
So, we had shrimp tartar-sauce sandwich and roast-beef sandwich.
Of course these were good, but we need to go there again soon and try deer burger!

My friend and I went to MUJI Cafe at Hibiya for our healthy dinner.
We had a choice of 4 kinds of dishes, 2 kinds of hot meals and 2 kinds of cold meals.
And, I chose a rice mixed with 16 grains of cereals which I love.
I liked everything, but I realized when I saw the pictures that I didn’t have deep different colors of fresh vegetables.
