Another famous taiyaki in Kichijoji
The photos in this review that Striffy uploaded are actually of Yokohama Kurikoan, another famous taiyaki shop in Kichijoji, located very near to Amane. In fact, there addresses are only two numbers apart. Amane is 1-1-9, while Yokohama Kurikoan is 1-1-7. Both are famous. Amane particularly so for its traditional handmade taiyaki. I would have liked to have gotten a better photo, but the alleyway where the shop is located is always busy and I don't like taking photos with other people in them, so this is all I got on my most recent visit.

Creative choice of Taiyaki
This taiyaki shop has a very unique choice! They change their menu seasonally and you can watch them directly making them in front of you. The posters menu is only in Japanese but they have English translation on the counter. The taiyaki have a lot of filling inside so you need to be careful not to spill anything. They also have some classic flavors such as custard or anko but the seasonal ones are the most popular. I tried the shiratama goma an, which had something similar to mochi inside together with anko(bean paste) and sesame. So if you like anko and dango you will mostly likely also like this flavor. I also tried the otona no chocolate (chocolate for adults) and liked that one as well. It's best to go with friends and share the different flavors.
