There was a range of delicious-looking pastries. I was happy to see strawberry sandwiches. ãã«ãŒããµã³ãã¯æ¥æ¬ã§ã¯äººæ°ããããŸããæè¿ãã€ã®ãªã¹ã®M&Sãšããã¹ãŒããŒã§å£²ã£ãŠããŸãã Fruit sandwiches are popular in Japan.

Apparently it's a summer tradition, especially to eat it at the Wimbledon tennis stadium, and M&S's strawberry cream sandwich was sold as a limited edition for the Wimbledon season. ç§ãäžåºŠé£ã¹ãŠã¿ãããã§ããããã€ã売ãåãã§ãããŠã£ã³ãã«ãã³ãçµãããŸã§ã«é£ã¹ãããããããããŸããã I'd love to try, but they are always sold out.
