Very special Kyoto treat

I came back for more! It’s a short walk from Daitoku-ji Temple (zen gardens, less tourists) nearby, and a quick taxi from Kinkaju-ji Temple (gold-leaf temple). And it’s a 1000 year old shop, in the same family for 25 generations!

Confirmed vegan by a pamphlet listing ingredients and history that was provided with a take-out order.

Kazariya across the way, 600 years old, serves the same.

Pros: Delicious, Historic, Lovely antique setting

Traditional mochi

The grilled mochi pieces are stretchy, warm, soft and go very well with the sweet miso sauce.
The miso sause is a bit thin and slightly salty.
11 skewers for 600 ¥

It is custom to compare this shops aburi mochi with the one directly across the street.

Pros: Freshly grilled, Fast service, Tasty
