Kishimoto Shoten
A nearly 100-year-old fried bread specialty shop in front of Kasuga Shrine in Kada. The signature age-pan with house-made smooth anko filling is priced around 130 yen — exceptional value. Ranked near top of bakery rankings (Google 4.4 stars/137 reviews, Nettabo Research November 2024). Endless repeat visitors who combine it with Kada sightseeing. Also a pilgrimage site for fans of the anime Summer Time Rendering. Takeout only.
Locals say visiting Kada without stopping at Kishimoto for age-pan is unthinkable. Praised for the fluffy freshly-fried dough paired with subtly sweet anko. A 130-yen slice of happiness beloved by tourists and residents alike.
