araiya tofu shop

Been wanting to check out Araiya Tofu Shop ever since seeing it on a television show. (photo from the internet)

Finally got a chance when I went to return the pudding bottles.
 

Picked up their soy de queijo (which is inspired by pao de queijo, the Brazlian cheese bread)

Not sure if these actually had cheese in them but they were super airy.

I tried their black bean and margherita flavors...160 yen each (tax included)

The black bean used the sweet black bean that we often see at New Years.

And the margherita flavor had sun dried tomato and fresh basil in it.

Both were different but delicious.

Another thing I tried was their shumai...160 yen each (tax included)

The wrappers were filled with fishcake then fried, so ono!

We also tried their oden...580 yen (tax included)

So good with yuba and it was my first time using yuzu kosho (citron pepper) with oden

I'll be back to try other items.
