鎌倉利々庵 - Lilian Kamakura

鎌倉の御成通りから少し横道に逸れた先に利々庵というパン屋がある。3年ほど前に店を開いたそうだが、あまり通ることもない道なので最近まで知らなかった。小振りな菓子パンがあれこれ窓辺に並べられて美味しそうだ。たまたま今日は行きつけのビゴの店が閉まっていたので、こちらに回って試しにいくつか買って帰った。クルミ入りのパン、抹茶あんパン、クロワッサン、あとはバゲット。ちょっと和菓子感覚があるのかな。お茶請けの菓子代わりになりそうなパンと形容しておこう。フランスパンの方は水分含有量が多いとでも言うのか、パリッとした食感ではなく、クロワッサン共々日本的傾向かな。


On a sideway off Onari Street in Kamakura is a bakery named Lilian. They started about 3 years ago, but I didn't know it until recently because I seldom take this way. A variety of smallish bread is displayed in front of the window that all look attractive. As Bigot, mon boulanger quotidien, was somehow closed on the day, I came to get some here to try and bought a walnut bread, a maccha/bean paste, a croissant, and a baguette. The sweeter ones had an appeal like Japanese cakes in the style and flavor,  and I thought it would go well as alternative companions with green tea. The French bread, including croissant, tended to contain more water in the dough as it seemed, characteristically somewhat sticky than crispy, which is Japanese-French in my definition.
