Style-testing the croissants that it’s important to preorder from Mos Burger.
With regards to quick meals hamburgers in Japan, overseas chains like McDonald’s and Burger King have an undeniably robust presence. Persistently at or close to the highest of recognition polls, although, is Mos Burger, the home hamburger chain identified for being a little bit costlier than its rivals, however properly well worth the worth.
Lately Mos is making an attempt its hand at yet one more culinary import: croissants! And no, we’re not speaking about some form of sandwich with a sliced croissant changing the bun, however the crescent-shaped baked items themselves.

We hadn’t been conscious of Mos moving into the croissant sport till our Japanese-language reporter Ok. Masami was strolling by her native Mos Burger department and noticed an indication out entrance saying, “Croissant orders now being taken.” That’s as a result of you may’t simply stroll in, ask for them, and stroll out. You must put your order in forward of time, then come again and choose them up on the second or fourth Friday of the month.
It’s a little bit of trouble, although fortunately you may place your order on-line so that you don’t must make two journeys. What actually satisfied us to go to the difficulty of pre-ordering croissants, although, is the truth that these are a joint venture between Mos and Yamazaki Baking, the identical group that produced the wonderful chocolate bread we devoured again within the spring.
Mos is providing two sorts of croissants, one crammed with chocolate and the opposite with anko (candy purple bean paste), provided in a pack of two of the identical taste for 500 yen (US$3.50). Meaning we would have liked to purchase a complete of 4 croissants with a view to attempt each flavors, however it’s onerous to discover a extra compelling cause for analysis expenditures than consuming a number of desserts.
When you’re extraordinarily hungry/fully missing in willpower, you may tear open the package deal and begin consuming the croissant instantly. Nonetheless, the official title is “The Croissant that Will Be Reborn if You Have One Minute to Wait.” Mos recommends that your croissant spend that one minute in your toaster oven, being reheated and “rebaked.”
And Masami was glad she adopted that recommendation. When she opened the door to her toaster oven again up, an attractive buttery aroma got here floating out. Even higher, the time within the toaster oven had each given the croissant a crisp outer layer and turned its chocolate filling right into a gentle, gooey core of enjoyment.
The anko croissant was equally distinctive, mixing japanese and western culinary parts in a fashion as deftly scrumptious as Mos Burger’s rice burgers and sake milk shakes.
Mos’ croissants are so good that having to purchase them in packs of two virtually looks like one thing they selected for our profit, because it’s an consuming expertise price repeating. The probabilities to do this are going to be restricted, although, since The Croissant that Will Be Reborn if You Have One Minute to Wait is a limited-time merchandise, and can solely be accessible till November 25, with on-line orders placeable right here.
