    Wakayama Tanabe-shi Kitashinmachi 1
    Located in the center of Tanabe, a city along the Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage Route, about a 15-minute drive from the Nanki Tanabe Interchange on the Hanwa Expressway via National Route 42, this is a venerable retailer of traditional Japanese sweets. Its flagship product is Okeshi Mochi, a simple round, flat cake of rice paste covered on both sides with sweet red bean paste. The soft, chewiness of the pounded Mochi cake and the perfectly salted, not-too-sweet flavor of the bean paste make this a popular item, and it is said to have been a favorite of Minakata Kumagusu, the famous 19th-century scholar in natural history and folklore studies. Since these confections do not keep more than a day, one can taste them only here. In the back of the shop is a tea corner, where customers can enjoy a cup of tea with their sweets.

    紀伊田辺駅から闘鶏神社と逆の方に行くとあります。お餅の上に粒あんをのせた辻の餅が名物です。シンプルですが非常に美味しかったです。

    This is located about a ten-minute drive from the Nanki Tanabe Interchange on the Hanwa Expressway via Prefectural Route 208. It is a venerable shop that has specialized in creating confections imbued with the spirit of Kisei Tanabe since 1905. In 2002, the shop's exquisite Kamishima no Tsuru, made of chestnuts wrapped in smooth red bean paste and white bean with egg yolk paste and then coated with soft marshmallow dough, won the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries Award at a national contest. Other recommended items are those made with Binchotan charcoal, such as the White Charcoal Cookie, made with finely ground Binchotan charcoal and black sesame.
