We went to lunch with a friend to a new restaurant in a nearby mall. The name is Baqet. I had sesame roast chicken, coated in black sesame. The friend had chicken in tomato sauce and basil, Florentine style, according to the menu. Mitsuko had some kind of gratin.

But the main dishes, while quite good, really aren't the point of this restaurant. Instead, the real calling card is in a double row of small trays nearby, maybe a dozen or so altogether, filled with various fresh rolls. Fresh baked, eat all you want. And we each had a couple of plates of rolls. Small croissants, bran rolls, 3 seed rolls, onion, garlic, tumeric (I still don't really know what that was, but the yellowish color was intriguing). And so on. Warm rolls, with plenty of butter.

Lunches were about 1,000 to 1,200 yen, which is reasonable for this kind of restaurant.

And all-you-can-eat warm rolls really hit the spot. Nice change of pace from the rice that is the usual staple.

Recently, I opened a jar of black currant jam. Dunnes Store brand, that I think I picked up in Scotland when we were there a while ago. The fun part for me was that when I started to spread it on my toast, it has whole fruit -- black currant fruit. Very lumpy! But I like it. Even with my favorite super chunk peanut butter, those black currants add something.

So enjoy that lumpy black currant jam. And blackberry seeds. And chewing!
