Komeda Coffee

Komeda Coffee is a famous coffee shop chain in Nagoya and central Japan area.



I took the above photo at Komeda Coffee Toyohashi Fujisawa (map).
The left cake-like thing is called "Shiro-Noir."
Here, "Shiro" means "White" in Japanese, and obviously "Noir" means "Black" in French (I think). Yes, it's almost meaningless, but anyway, that tastes very good. :)

As you can see, it's a sweet Danish pastry with soft cream.
The above one is a small size version, but be careful. The standard size seems to be about 15cm in diameter and sometime too big for a woman. :o

You can find out some literature about "Shiro-Noir" here and here.
(Unfortunately, only in Japanese)
