PIZZA
We start by importing 100% Hokkaido flour produced by Yokoyama Seifun flour mill in Sapporo, Japan. Our dough is made using our local partner, Lyon bakery, to create the fluffy texture that defines Japanese bread. We then cook it in a pan using rice oil to give the crust a crunchy, almost tempura-like texture. Available in two sizes, half (2-slices) and whole (4-slices).-
