Shops Of Delicious Rice Dumpling

Panda no Sampomichi

5 Reviews

The most-seller 'Pan-Dango' is lovely and delicious panda-shaped dumpling! They're good for cherry blossom viewing. The shop opens from 12:00 on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, and panda dumpling is sold while the stocks out!

eX cafe Arashiyama Main Store

3 Reviews

It's enjoyable to roll and grill the rice dumplings on Shichirin clay stove by myself. The lovely rice dumplings are while one and green (yomogi) mugwort one. After it's grilled enough, put the mitarashi (sweet soy sauce) sauce or sweet azuki bean jam on them. The beautiful garden is one of the attractions, too.

Umezono Kiyomizu Store

2 Reviews

The sweet shop is at Sannen zaka slope which leads to Kiyomizu temple. The Mitarashi dango (a dumpling covered with kuzu sauce seasoned with soy sauce and sugar) is good for people tired from walking on the slope. Because it is not big, I can eat 5 sticks. And a fresh warm one is exceptional.

Marumochiya Fushimiinari-Main-Store

5 Reviews

Purchased water Marumochiya at Marumochiya near Fushimi Inari, Kyoto. 1180 yen for 3 pieces. I picked up fallen leaves and acorns near my house to color the autumn. Marumochiya has a smooth texture, and when you put it in your mouth, it melts like water and disappears. It was a delicious Japanese sweet that goes well with black honey and soybean flour.

Kaka Itoken

3 Reviews

At a shop near Fushimi Inari Taisha, you can eat cute sweets while walking around. In spring, the cherry blossoms are lined up in the middle and are very cute. The Japanese sweets in the center change depending on the season, but spring is the best.

Delicious warabi mochi at a registered tangible cultural property shop. Once you step inside, the space spreads out as if you were transported back in time. As you walk down the corridor, you can see a splendid garden through the windows, and the finest warabi mochi, flower warabi, and roasted green tea, served in a splendid mansion steeped in history.

Shotoen

2 Reviews

The 5th year of Reiwa New Year New Year's confectionery "Zodiac My New Year's New Year" is a sesame paste. The rabbit holding a carrot in his hand must be a carrot. A Japanese confectionery shop that makes unbaked sweets for the season all year round, but the new year's sweets are more gorgeous and I want to have them every year. The sweetness is suppressed, so you can eat about two. A total of 15 types of fresh sweets were prepared.

Onomichi Sakura Chaya (Onomichi Station Store)

1 Reviews

Sakura Chaya's best-seller menu, Yaki Dango (grilled rice ball) is served also as Zenzai (sweet azuki bean soup). The traditional Japanese sweets make our body and mind warm.

Fukuidō Main Store

1 Reviews

Like the long-established traditional confectionery shop that it is, their Daifuku (soft rice cake) is very delicious! White bean paste that is not so much sweet and fresh strawberry, are wrapped in soft rice cake. That's surely delicious sweet, isn't it? Strawberry Daifuku are sold only while the sticks last, so if you miss, you can't eat it till next year.

Shikoku

Blanc Kanonji-Main-Store

1 Reviews

A big whole strawberry in it. And between mochi (a chewy dough) and a strawberry, there's surprisingly a sweet castard cream. Buy it before it's sold out.

Tossaka Manjyu

2 Reviews

The freshly made food is really delicious and you can eat it endlessly! Dozens of them will be bought by everyone, so it seems to be a perfect souvenir ♪

Nanaya

1 Reviews

A small cute candy store found in Tokushima prefecture. The cuteness that makes you feel relaxed and healed by the appearance of a colon is perfect as a souvenir. On the day of over-the-counter sales, it sells out as soon as it is lined up in the store. Orders for toppings on your head that change with the seasons are by appointment only. There are grapes and apples on this fall. You can also order it.

Kanto

Sakinoya

1 Reviews

At Tsukiji Sanokiya in Tokyo, you can eat "Tuna Yaki", which has a cute appearance. The cute point is that the fins and form are firmly tuna. There are "Medium Toro" which is a chewy dough and "Book tuna" which is a crispy dough, so I'm glad that you can choose the one you like!

Tororitenshi-no-warabimochi Akihabara-Store

1 Reviews

Warabimochi from Trottro, which has several stores in Tokyo, is a popular shop, but pay attention to the warabimochi that you drink for a limited time at the Akihabara store. The photo shows the warabimochi pumpkin caramel (680 yen) and strawberry (650 yen). The pumpkin caramel for a limited time from October 14th to October 31st was like pumpkin pudding and was very delicious. Excellent compatibility with warabimochi

UNIQLO COFFEE

1 Reviews

Introducing the UNIQLO cafe that opened on the 12th floor of the UNIQLO Ginza store. The photo shows cafe au lait (350 yen) and dorayaki (250 yen). You can drink delicious coffee at a reasonable price unique to UNIQLO. Geisha variety is also 450 yen. Bunmeido's original branded dorayaki is undeniably delicious. Recommended when you want to take a break.

Hokuriku

Saboissyo

1 Reviews

Aromatic smell and leisurely time fill up the calm café renovated from an old house built 150 years before, and it's an ideal place for a rest during your sightseeing. With roasted tea (houji-cha in Japanese), a Kanazawa's proud Japanese sweet is prepared together. They pick also the plates they use, so you can enjoy the tablewares, too.

MORIHACHI Higashi Sambancho

1 Reviews

Morihachi is a long established shop of wagashi, Japanese traditional confectionary. Their cafe opens in an old house at Higashi Chayagai District, Kanazawa. These lovely sweets has excellent sweetness with maccha (green tea), and superb smooth texture, which you can taste the Japanese prominent skills.◎Maccha & Sweets Set 700yen. They offered three different kinds of wagashi when we ordered for three people, what a nice kindness! What's more, coffee or Kaga Boucha (roasted Japanese tea) with Morihachi's sweets.

Kaikaro

1 Reviews

Kaikaro in Higashi chaya-gai. They refuse the first time customers for Ozashiki (tatami mat room) at night, but you can look in the house and enter the café at day time. I recommend you a 'golden kuzukiri'. Both of the looks and taste are very gorgeous.

Amairo is a shop of coffee and Taiyaki (fish-shaped cake with filling inside). Their most-seller 'Coffee Set 500 yen' has one Taiyaki with azuki-bean jam, or custard, or mix of these inside, and a cup of tasty coffee. It's located at a back alley which makes me want to take breath.

Toraya Kōbō is located 5 min by car from Gotemba Premium Outlet. Going under the nice entrance gate, and through the garden with lush greens, there's a cafe famous for its delicious Japanese sweets. I had Dorayaki this time, and that was delicious as I've heard. You can drink tea as much as you want if you eat inside. On holidays, it's get very crowded.

The fabric is chewy! The bean paste is fluffy! It's a bit different from the Dora-yaki I've eaten so far. There is a wide variety of flavors, and this time we chose 4 of them! ︎ "Matcha x Strawberry" is for a limited time. It's small and delicious enough to make you want to eat many.

You can eat authentic roasted mitarashi dango. If you scoop up the freshly made chewy dumplings and put them on a plate, you can chase them to make them even more delicious. Ice matcha latte is made by pouring hot matcha latte into a large amount of ice. It is a new style.

A cute Taiyaki-san who is particular about bean paste, dough, sardines and butter. I like bean paste, so choose it. 390yen It seems to be the most popular. My friend is Banana Custard 350yen. Be careful that the butter melts because the butter is left behind. Even the dough was too delicious.

Itoken sou / sou Kyoto Shimizu store has opened. You can take out cute Japanese sweets and drinks. It is also good for sightseeing and eating out. Kushiwa sweets are high quality sweets carefully made by craftsmen one by one. There are many photogenic menus such as amber soda that you can drink with Churun. I have a feeling that it will become popular in the future.
