Saturday, October 3, 2026, 11:00 PM - 2:00 AM ยท Wa-Iro, Pasadena, Los Angeles
Wa-Iro hosts a Family Day on October 3 with kid-friendly bear-shaped breads, a coloring corner, and a free Kids' JAPACUP Pasta with any $25 purchase.
Japanese-style pastries made with Hokkaido flour give Wa-Iro a texture advantage from the start, the salt-and-butter roll is impossibly soft, and the milk bread tears apart in delicate ribbons. The savory case is what turns first-timers into regulars: curry pan filled with rich Japanese curry, takoyaki buns stuffed with creamy octopus, and cheese-crusted Japaninis packed with fried fish or yakisoba. Doors open at 8am, but the best strategy is to treat that as a suggestion, not a deadline.
