Ichimonjiyawasuke Ichiwa

Simply put, I love this place.
This Ichimonjiya is located right next to Imamiya shrine of Kyoto and right in front of Kazariya which is Ichimonjiya’s competitor.
In Kyoto, people often talk about which side they are on, as in «team Kazariya» and «team Ichimonjiya». To be honest, they are both equally good but I usually end up going into Ichimonjiya somehow.
Treat itself… which is Aburimochi is one tasty snack. Aburimochi literally means «Roasted rice cake». The potion is small but it comes out as a stack of spit-​roast rice cakes with great sweet sauce on. The shop serves us with green tea and it goes pretty well with Aburimochi.
This old «Chamise (traditional Japanese tea house style)» is so great, makes me ponder about the old days around the store. They have outside bench seats so you might even feel luckier hanging at this shop if you hit a bright shiny day.
