Kanemakiya 美豆伎庵金巻屋

Homey Japanese Sweets

I tried the Lemon Daifuku (pounded mochi rice dumpling), and it was very delicious. It had the right amount of sweet and tart, and the only complaint I have is that it wasn’t bigger! The store’s atmosphere is like stepping back in time to the early Showa period. The staff is very welcoming and helpful, and each snack is made with care and attention. The store specializes in distinctly Japanese treats, so if you’re strolling Kami-Furumachi and you’re in the mood for a bite of history, stop in.
