Kagetsudo is well known in Asakusa for producing a particularly Japanese variety of bread—melon pan.
Kagetsudo doesn’t just serve plain old melon pan. If you want, they’ll stuff it with ice cream, fruit and even cookies.
A single oven-fresh melon pan costs ¥220.
Besides the “head office” store located near Hanayashiki, there are four other locations in Asakusa.
