It was formerly a nourishing food store located on Nanjing West Road and has been in existence for more than 70 years.
I have gone through food stores, bakeries, and now wagashi.
What we enjoyed today is the only mochu in the store that can be eaten on-site, with a cup of hot tea, the price is 50.
Monaka is one of Japan's most representative wagashi. It uses a complicated process to create a crispy glutinous rice shell and is filled with overflowing red bean fillings.
Red beans are slightly sweeter (but I don't object to it), and in order to allow more non-ant-people to experience the aroma of red bean paste, the store will pair it with a cup of hot sugar-free tea. It should be buckwheat tea?
Take the last sip of tea and enjoy the duet of red beans and glutinous rice shells in your mouth. Then the hot tea takes away the sweetness, leaving only the remaining aroma in your mouth.
Another signature of the store is the winter-limited strawberry daifuku. After all, it comes in a gift box, so the price is quite high.
It was an interesting experience to buy a Daifuku gift box and then take a photo with the Daifuku model outside the store.
If you come to Dihua Street for shopping, it is highly recommended to visit Nourishing, but be aware that the store does not accept cash.
