What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Founded in 1798, this long-established wagashi shop is a Ogaki landmark. The mizu-manju, born in the Meiji era using the city's abundant groundwater, is made with a soft blend of kuzu and warabi starch—Ogaki's signature summer treat. The Kinchoen-manju has maintained its recipe for over 160 years. Selected for Tabelog Wagashi EAST Top 100 Shops 2023. TripAdvisor Ogaki #1 of 413 restaurants. Tabelog 3.57, 737 reviews. Cash, credit cards, and QR codes accepted. 1-min walk from JR Ogaki Station south exit.

"Worth coming to Ogaki just for the mizu-manju." "Kinchoen-manju for ¥150—the quality is extraordinary." "Summer lines are long but worth every minute." "A Meiji-era Ogaki pride; I come every year as a local."
