Ishii
Ishii is a long-standing wagashi (Japanese sweets) store founded in 1862, back when Tokyo was still known as “Edo.” The building the store is in is over 200 years old, although the specific year of its construction is unknown.
If you're walking along the Shibamata Taishakuten approach, you absolutely can't miss the Mimiroru Roll and Torayaki here.
TOKYO GIFT PALETTE
The "Tokyo Gift Palette" is located just outside the "Yaesu North Exit ticket gate" of Tokyo Station. This area, which occupies a corner of "First Avenue Tokyo Station", features a total of 39 brands, including exclusive Japanese and Western confectioneries as ideal as gifts for loved ones and souvenirs of Tokyo, limited edition sweets available only here, special bento boxes and side dishes, and cafes where you can spend time in comfort. Of these, 24 are new brands, new business categories, or brands that are opening at Tokyo Station for the first time, attracting much attention.
There are so many new shops now, and every product is so unique that it's almost overwhelming. In the end, I picked the red bean and cream bread recommended by the staff at Okada Kinsei. Can't wait to try it!
