About this place
Enjoy the shokupan as it is, or toast it to savour the texture of the crust: at Pan de Mii, each way of eating it seems to bring out a different quality. Visitors describe the crumb as springy, with a gentle sweetness, and say it is delicious without toasting. One diner enjoyed the contrast of a crisp crust and a still-soft, springy centre after toasting. Another particularly liked the crust’s fragrant flavour and substantial texture, and preferred eating the bread as it was. Trying a slice plain, then toasted, could be a good way to compare.
Visitors also mention the chiffon cake. One person chose the cream cheese flavour, finding it light and fluffy with restrained sweetness, and enjoyed it with homemade marmalade for a change of flavour. Another diner’s favourite was the tea flavour; menu information also lists a raisin variety.
The shop also offers sets made with its shokupan. Options include thick-cut butter toast, cheese toast, ham and cheese toast, and croque monsieur. The set listing says salad can be added to the croque monsieur set for an extra 120 yen. Set drinks include coffee, café au lait, tea, orange juice and ginger ale. Alongside taking a loaf home, these toast sets offer an option for a light meal.
The shop in Hamaguchinishi, Suminoe Ward, Osaka, also offers takeaway. Published opening information lists Tuesday to Saturday, 10 to 16; it is closed on Sundays and Mondays. Payment is cash only.
