If there're still places in Boston that still sell baked goods shipped up from Parisienne in Fort Lee, NJ, you should try their curry pan. It's as good as a really good curry pan you get in Jpn, if you heat it up in the oven.
Japonaise Bakery is still there. But compare with when I lived at Boston area my pre-Los Angeles days selections today are more like mix of Japanese bakery items and typical American bakery. I do remember Japonaise Bakery used to have Curry-pan and Yakisoba-pan, but today none.
Both
Ebisuya (Medford) and
Maruichi (Brookline) have Parisienne baked goods, but Maruichi has more selections and more stocks. Maruichi has far more selection of take out bento, add to far better selections of Parisienne items and meat and sea food selections are better, too. Ebisuya has been around Boston for long time but I think Ebisuya has to keep up with Maruichi. Hope this will be healthy competition which will keep both competitive.
Yes, I have shoku-pan (食パン) from Parisienne, my breakfast.
