Shimafumi Honten
A seaside bakery-café on Sado Island overlooking Mano Bay. Breads are slowly fermented with house yeast cultured from Sado-grown fruit and baked every morning; plate lunches feature the island's seasonal produce. The open-garden terrace stays open until sunset over the Sea of Japan.
Reviews rave about the ocean view with fresh-baked bread; a tourist favourite that locals also frequent. Queues and sold-out bread are reported on holidays.
