Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast!
You started with the English room and then "puh" and then with a "puh".
Never heard of that before.
You're not going to explain to me how that happened. That's okay.
Hello Kevin. My name is Tokachi.
Gotcha.
Like the milk, right?
Yeah, but it's written in Hiragana so we never know.
Never know.
But there's a Tokachi...
Yeah, in Hokkaido.
Right, the place, right? It's famous for milk, yogurt, butter...
I know.
There's a bread.
There's a bread?
Yeah.
Wait, from Tokachi? There's a Tokachi bread?
I'm not sure. You can find it in a convenience store.
Tokachi, you know, there's this stick bread and eight sticks in one bag.
Oh, I know what that is.
It says Tokachi.
Does it say Tokachi?
No.
Tokachi...
You knew...
The only stick bread I know is the one with the chocolate chips inside?
No, not that one. It's a bit twisted.
Oh!
Like a butter...
Okay, I think I know. I think I know.
Oh, okay, I didn't know that.
Wasn't it like Tokachi...
Oh, okay. They must be using the milk from Tokachi or the butter.
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah.
If I remember correctly.
Uh-huh.
But yeah.
Oh.
What's your favorite croissant?
Do you have any favorite croissant place?

Like I can name some, you know, stores.
Oh, okay.
Like famous stores like Paul.

But yeah, no, I don't have like typical like favorite.
Why? Why?
Would you agree with me that recently there have been many bakeries where they have their own special croissant?
Like they have their own specialty croissant.
Oh, okay.
I mean, I didn't know that, but okay.
I've been finding a lot of places with this.
03:02
I don't know.
They have a croissant, but their croissant is in this huge basket.
And like it's so obvious that it's their specialty.
Like it's so obvious that they put a lot of effort in their croissants.
Okay.
And I've been finding myself, like I found myself finding a lot of those stores.
Like, oh, there's another bakery with the specialty croissant.
Oh, there's another one.
And I thought that was like, maybe I thought that was like a trend.
And I've been buying them occasionally like here and there.
Yeah.
And they were all really crispy and good.
Oh.
So I was just wondering what your favorite croissant place was.
I mean, I don't buy those croissants that frequently.
So I don't have any, but yeah.
Go on.
