Ajari-mochi(阿闍梨餅, あじゃりもち), sweet bean paste in a rice cake

When you come to Japan, you will definitely enjoy the food. Because Japan has so many variety of foods, and on a streets there are various types of restaurants. Some are very traditional and old style, and some are totally new. And also, you will find the food belonging to your country :) Yeah, so many!


It's not a temple, but looks like a temple. The structure and texture of wooden wall is like a temple.



Actually, it's a sweet shop. You may know anko(餡子, あんこ) which is a Japanese traditional sweet. You can call it sweet bean paste. And this sweet shop has a tasty rice cake.



Yes, that's it! I loooooove it!! Sometimes I want to eat it as many as I want, like 10 pieces or 20.


The inside is also good. You can get some information in the shop. Yes, they have an information space.



When I looked up, I found the high ceiling. And when I was waiting for my order, they served me for a cup of Japanese tea. It's a good idea to welcome and relax people. Watching the ceiling, I enjoy the time to wait.

Well, then I got 12 rice cakes. 3 are for a present for my boss. 4 will be sent to my friend.
And.. I can eat  5 rice cakes! :P I will be full, when I will be done it!
