Tokiwado Kaminari-okoshi Honpo
Tokiwado Kaminari-okoshi Honpo Kaminarimon Main Store sits tall on two centuries of renown as an “okoshi” confectionery shop from its spot just steps from Asakusa's iconic Kaminarimon Gate. Okoshi is a traditional Japanese sweet made by binding roasted rice, millet, or other grains with a sweet syrup (such as sugar or malt syrup). It is well-loved for its crispy texture, pleasant aroma, and subtle sweetness. Kaminari-okoshi, the shop’s signature product, combines puffed rice with ingredients like peanuts.
This long-established rice cracker shop is fantastic! The snacks are crispy and flavorful without being too sweet. There are lots of flavors to choose from, and you can even try samples. Perfect as a souvenir or just for snacking yourself.
