Exploring Mikadukiya: Delightful Croissants at Fukuoka Airport

Mikadukiya

       As I mentioned in my previous entry, my husband and I visited Japan last year. We stayed at a hotel near Fukuoka Airport. After checking out, we headed to the airport to catch our flight to Yakushima Island. While at Fukuoka Airport, we decided to try Mikadukiya (三日月屋), a popular bakery that specializes in croissants.

      There were so many kinds of croissants to choose from. We picked the Yomogi (よもぎ) and Azuki (あずき) ones, which were 276 yen each.

Mikadukiya Yomogi Croissant

      This is  a Yomogi croissant. Yomogi (よもぎ, ヨモギ) is Japanese mugwort, often used as an ingredient for mochi. When I was a child, I loved the yomogi mochi my grandmother made.

         My husband and I enjoyed a Yomogi croissant while flying to Yakushima Island.

        The Yomogi croissant had azuki, sweetened red bean paste, in it. The earthy flavor of yomogi pairs perfectly with the sweetness of azuki and the buttery croissant. It was so good!

 

 

Mikadukiya Cafe

         There is also Mikadukiya Cafe, which sells croissant sandwiches and soft serve. It’s located in the food court, just across from Mikadukiya Bakery.

        Since my husband loves azuki, sweetened red bean paste, he ordered an Azuki Whippedcream Croissant Sandwich for 454 yen. He couldn’t resist the combination of creamy whipped cream and sweet red bean paste in a flaky croissant.

        I thought their soft serve was very affordable compared to the one we had at Haneda Airport. That's why I decided to order the Royal Chocolate Soft Serve for 373 yen.

         It had a nice, rich chocolate flavor. I really loved it. Every bite was a delightful treat, making it a perfect choice.

 

        Next time, I will write about Yakushima Island.
