Overview

If 2020 has given us anything, it's a renewed appreciation for bread. In particular, the humble sourdough and the fluffy white Japanese milk bread known as shokupan. The cult Melbourne bakery that also goes by the name of Shokupan even took things to the next level, fusing the two bread varieties to create its signature sourdough shokupan loaf.

Now, another smart pairing sees Shokupan teaming up with innovative Japanese eatery Future Future for a one-off pop-up this Saturday, September 12. The duo's specialty collaboration menu of fruit sandos and Japanese-inspired sausage rolls will be available for pre-order to take away from the Richmond restaurant from 11am–3pm.

Get ready to sink your teeth into a dreamy riff on the sausage roll ($12), featuring a Japanese pork snag from Meatsmit encased in miso-glazed shokupan and baked to golden perfection. It'll be accompanied by pickles, miso mustard and a fermented chilli tomato sauce. Meanwhile, dessert is sorted with a limited run of sweet shokupan sandos ($7), loaded with spring fruits and whipped mascarpone. While you're there, you'll be able to stock up on some full loaves of Shokupan's finest, along with batch brew coffee, genmaicha tea and tinnies of Japanese beer.

Pre-orders are available via the Future Future website. Of course, under current stage four restrictions, you can only swing past the Richmond store if you live within five kilometres. If you don't, sorry — stay tuned for more pop-ups, hopefully a little closer to you.
