Summer doesn't come unless you eat it, served only June to September
We started making this dish with the desire to familiarize more and more people with our favorite local food "Myouga bochi". We leave part of the broad beans unpounded to allow its taste to characterize the cake with an enhanced flavor. It provided somewhat nostalgic, relaxing taste of Japanese countryside.
Service period：From early June to late September
Please call us to confirm.
The dough wrapped in bean paste is hand-wrapped with myoga leaves and steamed.
We also accept local shipments of "Ganso Myougabochi".
There is an eat-in space in the store, where you can enjoy Japanese sweets with fragrant tea.
Our landmark is a large sign of "Ganso Myougabochi" on the roadside.
We do not pound the beans completely but leave some bits to enhance the flavor.
We try to be loved in the community with our traditional and creative Japanese sweets.
"Bochi" means "mochi" or rice cake but flour is used instead.
"Myouga bochi" can be enjoy only in this locality in a limited period.
