うばがもちや 本店 - Kusatsu

Delicious ankoro mochi. The clerk was also kind and rented a chaise lounge at the storefront. I want to visit again if I pass nearby

A nice shop. The soba restaurant next door be on one's mind

I was healed by the gentle sweetness of Ubagamochi. The Muscat Daifuku that I just wrapped in the morning was also delicious. I want to bother you again.

There are shops at the station and in front of the station! But? Go to the main store! Ubakamochi! Dorayaki! Ichigo Daifuku! There were various! It's like Akafuku for kids! I feel that bean paste is sweeter than Akafuku! delicious! But because it's small, it's gone soon!

Eiroku 12 years Founded 1569 Ubagamochi Main Store As an image, it has a taste similar to Akafuku Ichigo Daifuku is also delicious. The scenery inside and outside the store remains the same as before. HP quote: Kusatsu was one of the 53 Stations of the Tokaido, a junction with Nakasendo, and the best post town on Omi Road. Nakasendo was 129 ri, 10 towns and 8 kens from Edo, while Tokaido was 119 ri, 18 towns and 1 ken, with a difference of about 10 ri, or about 40 km. If you walk along Minoji from Miya (Atsuta) on the Tokaido and then take Nakasendo from Tarui, you will reach 120 ri and 6 towns, which is not much different from the main road on the Tokaido. However, Nakasendo is a mountain, a mountain, and a small post station. The Tokaido might have been better for enjoying the trip. By the way, at the intersection of Tokaido and Nakasendo, according to the Tokaido Famous Places Map, when you go down from Kyoto, you will see "Tokaido if you turn right. If you go immediately, it will be Kiso Kaido, Nakasendo, Nagoya Castle. " (Now, the stone markers "Right Tokaido Isemichi" and "Left Nakasendo Minoji" remain.) The population of this Kusatsu inn is 2351 and the number of houses is 586, of which 2 are Honjin and Wakihonjin are. It is said that there were 2 houses and 72 Hatagoya. At that time, when it came to traveling, there were overwhelmingly many visits to shrines and temples, as represented by visiting Ise for the reason of visiting, and the main thing was to go to the spa. In any case, traveling in the Edo period was a big job. And the fun of the highway is a break at the teahouse. On the way from the post station to the post station, take a rest while listening to the pine wind and the sound of the waves at the teahouse on the mountain pass with a good view and the pine forest on the beach, and heal your hunger. Mochi and dumplings are the things that come with such occasions. Mochi is very hungry and was especially welcomed by travelers. By the way, the Sangu Kaido (Kuwana-Yamada) to Ise, which was crowded with people, is also known as the "Mochi Kaido". As you know, there are still many rice cakes left as a specialty along the way. Since it was at that time, all of them were word-of-mouth, and the mochi over there was delicious, no, this one was more popular, and before I knew it, it became a local specialty mochi.

Morning grilled dorayaki I ate morning-baked raw caramel dorayaki. In both cases, the dough is fluffy like pancakes, and it has evolved rather than the traditional dorayaki. It was delicious. I bought it and ate it that day, but the one I ate the next day was still fluffy. Dorayaki is served twice a month on the 10th and 25th It is on sale. For raw caramel, this month's worth It seems to end once. October is like chocolate dorayaki. I've never eaten it, It seems that Mitarashi dumplings are also on sale.

I went to the side of the post. Kamo Nanban soba was delicious. Soba is an elegant soba of Sarashina soba. The taste of Tama Konnyaku was so tasty that it was very delicious.

I stopped by when I went to Kusatsu. I rented a seat at the soba restaurant next to the shop (because there were no customers in the evening) and took a rest for a while while enjoying the story. "Ubagamochi" that Ieyasu and Basho ate. It is a simple taste.
