Near the entrance of Nara Park, this traditional dessert shop sells a green mugwort ‘yomogi’ mochi with sweet red bean filling. The surface is dusted with yellow soybean powder. The mochi is soft and chewy, and it’s filled with a generous amount of red bean paste.
As the mochi is freshly made, if you are lucky, you can witness the famous mochi making show. Just keep in mind that because of that, this place has become extremely popular and there would likely be a queue when you buy the mochi.
