What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A historic confectionery shop from the Edo period, continuously crafting 'Yasunaga Mochi,' the famous specialty of Kuwana on the Tokaido highway. Hokkaido azuki bean paste is wrapped in a flat elongated mochi and hand-grilled one by one. No artificial colors or additives. One minute on foot from Nishi-Kuwana Station. Sells out daily. The lightly sweet, freshly grilled mochi has been a Kuwana souvenir staple for over 100 years.

208 Tabelog reviews, Jalan 4.2 (209 reviews), TripAdvisor 4.5. Praised for 'charming handmade variations in shape,' 'the unmistakable aroma of fresh grilling,' and 'worth a trip from far away.' One of the two iconic yasunaga mochi shops in Kuwana, a firmly established local institution.
