Truffle Bakery Hiroo — Restaurant in Tokyo

Went to this spot because it is said they have nice bread & pastries that are truffle infused.

They have many truffle infused offerings & because we were going to have a lunch soon we decided to just get a taste of what this place does for future reference Just got one thing, The truffle salt bread.

This features homemade truffle butter wrapped in a soft bun made from Canadian flour and is topped off with truffle oil and truffle salt.

"Meh" I thought, how good can it be.. I mean really!

It looks ok, then you take a bite & it is buttery perfection with great flavours of truffle coming through. I have had truffle oil before many times. Usually taste the oil first then the slightest hint of truffle since most producers of truffle oil make this as a way of value adding the odds & ends of their truffle harvest. This flavour of truffle is at the forefront of the pallette, is not overwhelming but well balanced & no hint of the oil itself. This is not a croissant, it's a bread for goodness sake!

We will be back for at least the EGG SANDWICH & a dozen other pastry offerings!!

PS just be prepared that there will be queues. Like everything popular in Japan, queues could/ will...

I had the pleasure of visiting this bakery recently and it's no wonder there's always a long line outside. From the moment I stepped through the door, I knew I was in for a treat. The selection of pastries, croissants, sandwiches, and baked breads is simply outstanding.

One thing that truly impressed me was the delicate balance of flavors. While they offer plenty of truffle-infused options, the bakery manages to ensure that the natural flavors of the breads are not overshadowed. It's a testament to their skill and expertise in crafting each item.

What sets this bakery apart is the sheer artistry evident in every bite. Each baked good is like a miniature masterpiece, carefully crafted with meticulous attention to detail. It's clear that the bakers pour their hearts and souls into their creations, and it's something to be appreciated.

In conclusion, I highly recommend this bakery for its incredible pastries, croissants, sandwiches, and baked breads. The flavors are exceptional, the presentation is exquisite, and the dedication to quality is evident in every aspect. Don't be deterred by the line outside; trust me, it's well...

I got off at Hiroo Station ONLY FOR VISITING Truffle BAKERY. The smell of bread wafted before I even got out of the station, and it was truly magical. I visited at 6pm on a weekday, and there was a line outside the store, and it took about 15-20 minutes to make the final payment. I was traveling alone, so I only bought Salt Bread. (Note that the photo is not of salt bread!) When I returned to the hotel and ate it, I really regretted not buying other menu items. Even if you are traveling alone, if you can’t go to Tokyo once a week, you should definitely buy various menu items! I love bread, so I’ve tried various breads not only usual but also while traveling, but this is the most delicious salt bread I’ve ever had. It’s incredibly delicious. The outside is crispy, but the inside is moist and chewy. It’s so delicious! I ate one the day I bought it and the rest the next day, and it was just as delicious the next day. I highly recommend it! (Actually, I can't forget the bread here so I'm currently planning a...
