What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A long-established Japanese sweets and ice cream shop on Onomichi's Honmachi shopping arcade, founded in 1939. Famous for ice cream monaka, assembled fresh in front of customers. TripAdvisor #2 in Onomichi (rated 4/5, 98 reviews). Yahoo Maps 4.36/266 reviews. Called 'Onomichi's soul food,' with local students stopping by after school. Historical note: Emperor Showa also enjoyed it.

Reviews often say 'this is the taste of Onomichi' and 'the nostalgic flavor unchanged since childhood.' Praised as one of the few shops supported by both tourists and locals alike.
