As soon as you enter Okage Yokocho and turn into a side alley, you'll see Akafuku. Their signature "Akafuku Mochi" is chewy mochi covered with red bean paste, similar to Taiwanese red bean mochi. The red bean paste is sweet but not overly so, and it's a perfect match with a cup of hot tea. No wonder there's a constant stream of customers. The matcha shaved ice is also very good, with their signature red bean paste and two pieces of mochi hidden inside. It's perfect for cooling off.
The main store is in the middle of the street and also offers gift boxes to go, but they have a short shelf life, so I recommend enjoying them there for the best taste.
