Monday, since I still had
dango on my mind, I went back to Shirai
It wasn't crowded AND that grandpa wasn't there...
(forgot to take a photo of the storefront, so took it from the pedestrian bridge)
I bought mitarashi dango, kusadango (yomogi (mugwort) and sweet bean paste), daifuku and ohagi...500 yen (tax included) for the 4.
The daifuku was filled with tsubuan (chunky sweet bean paste) and was delicious.
I'm not sure about the others since Satoshi ate them.
2 inarizushi and 2 norimaki...95 yen (tax included) for each inarizushi and 90 yen (tax included) for each norimaki.
The norimaki was a bit bland the rice wasn't seasoned and only had some seasoned kampyo (gourd) in it.
The inarizushi was the "juicy" kind but not overly "juicy", I enjoyed this.
We'll be back.
Glad you got some this time! they look so ono, even the inarizushi!
