(Translated by Google) Speaking of Shibamata, Tora-san is a famous character. I strolled through the nostalgic streets that reminded me of the setting of the story and stopped into Toraya to try their famous kusa dango (grass dumplings). 🍡💚
The taste was truly worth the visit.
The first thing that struck me was the aroma of mugwort.
The aroma spread instantly from the moment the plate arrived, making me excited even before I started eating.
With one bite, the dumpling was chewy and soft, with a strong mugwort flavor.
The smooth bean paste on top was also exquisite, with just the right amount of sweetness, making it a perfect match for the kusa dango (grass dumplings).
Before I knew it, the whole plate had disappeared in an instant.
The shop's atmosphere was also very relaxing, making it the perfect place to take a break between sightseeing.
The staff were cheerful and courteous, making it an easy place to visit even for first-time visitors.
While tourist destinations often rely on atmosphere, this shop truly relies on flavor.
You can enjoy authentic Japanese sweets while immersed in the Shibamata atmosphere.
If you come to Shibamata, this is a place you definitely want to stop by.
Whether you're a fan of Japanese sweets or just want to eat something sweet while sightseeing,
Toraya's Kusa Dango is a must-try.
