RACINES Boulangerie & Bistro's signature dish is freshly baked premium bread, still steaming when served. Many guests come specifically for this dish, enjoyed with whipped butter, and some also buy bread to take home from the attached boulangerie. The wreath salad, arranged with seasonal vegetables like a wreath, is well known for its homemade dressing made with shiso and new onion, and comes in a generous portion. Using pesticide-free vegetables from contracted farms and natural wines, the menu ranges from charcoal-grilled meat dishes to a firm, richly flavored custard pudding, offering both gentle-on-the-body ingredients and satisfying dishes. The afternoon tea, with scones and savories, is also popular, and the quality of the baked sweets reflects the shop's expertise as a specialty bakery. Down the green-lined staircase, the basement space has a stylish, calm, hideaway atmosphere. All seats are non-smoking, and the venue is considerate of wheelchairs and strollers, making it suitable for girls' nights, dates, and family meals alike.

Notes
[Access Information] Basement 1F of Building No. 8, Tokyo Welfare University Ikebukuro Campus. Please note this is NOT the basement of Junkudo Bookstore. The entrance is via stairs from outside the building. The restroom is shared with the building; access from the shop is through a door marked with an emergency exit sign leading to the corridor. When returning from the restroom, there is no shop signage on the corridor side, which may be confusing for first-time visitors.
