Yesterday, my darling and I've been to Hawaiian restaurant called "LOCO'S TABLE MAHANA" in Ebisu (Tokyo). My favorite hula teacher (team Makani Lua'Ole) dances here, so we go there once in a while. I enjoyed a lot♥
BTW, hula dancing is my hobby for 2 years since there is a FREE class at the gym I go. I don't think I want to pay to learn. LoL I share my hula dancing videos on YouTube with my blog buddies or Tipness (gym) members ;D Not professional, so I just share with limited people. hehe
Btw, you can make this Melonpan as big as you want, or as small as you want. I made it small and cute (Kawaii)♥

7. One at a time, roll out the cookie dough between two layers of plastic wrap, place the bun in the center and enclose it in the cookie dough.
8. Roll in the granulated sugar and place on a greased cookie sheet about an inch apart. With a scraper or knife, score the cookie dough in a criss-cross pattern.
9. Bake at 350F (180C) for 10 minutes. (Depending on the heat of the oven, cooking time may differ, so please watch out.)
* All you want to do is coat the bread with the cookie topping, so you can make it as big as you want, or as small as you want :D
