A sweets shop in the preservation area of Kyoto Machiya. The interior of the store is full of the atmosphere of Gion. The famous warabi mochi is 100% bracken starch made that day. It's so thick that it's difficult to lift it with chopsticks, and when you eat it, it's plump. It melts in the mouth. Matcha Warabimochi has a rich matcha flavor and is even more delicious when eaten with black honey. Kimono and exquisite warabi mochi are the best match.
