In Japan, there are many shops that ...are just a window. Yes, you don't actually enter the shop, but you buy over the counter directly placed on the street. In switzerland we see this seldom, In italy, besides ice creams shops, I don't recall seeing them (italians out there, help me on this ;).
So, there is this shop in Sannomiya station that sells what they call it in japanese "Shyukurimu", in English "Cream Puffs" in Italian "Bigné".
They are Big and Really Good. Nothing to do with the ones we usually find in europe that just contains some cream inside but are as dry as the Sahara on the outside. The ones here, are soft and tasty...and....BIG!

About 1 month ago, they would exaggeratly fill them up with a big amount of cream. About two weeks ago when i went there to get one (actually two :p) i've noticed that they had a small scale near them. You know what? They weighted them one by one to make sure the amount of cream was not too much or to less!! Exactly 98 grams each...
I have this passion for Cream Puff since early days when my Dad used to bake them for me and i used to sit down and watch... the good old days ! ...
