Daimaru Umeda's autumn food fair leans on a contest-winning melon bread and this spring's new tenants
Daimaru Umeda's monthlong autumn food fair is built around a contest-winning melon bread — and, pointedly, the two tenants it opened on the same basement floor only this spring, a faster vote of confidence than most new shops get.
Daimaru Matsuzakaya Department Stores said its Daimaru Umeda store is running a month-long Autumn Harvest Festival on its basement food floor from October 1 to 31, built around seasonal chestnut and sweet-potato sweets and a contest-winning melon bread, according to a release dated October 5.
