Bread is a food that has found its way into hearts and homes across the globe throughout history. Its simple yet versatile nature works with a wide range of flavors, and in Japan that means unique regional tastes like matcha and red bean are often incorporated.
If you're a bread fan, the Shonan Bread Festival is an event worth checking out. It's one of the largest bread-centric festivals in the region, and will include 40 participating bakeries from the Shonan area, including Fujisawa, Kamakura, and Chigasaki. Along with all the carb-filled treats to purchase, there will also be a number of food trucks selling other eats.

Please note that in the event of rain, the festival will be postponed until March 3rd.
