    This shop specializing in sweets made from sweet potatoes is located in Oroshi Danchi, Minamikubo, Kochi City.

At the shop’s café, visitors can also enjoy sweets made from sweet potatoes including their “Sweet Potato” cakes, parfaits, and puddings together with their carefully-crafted specialty coffees.

    口コミ忘れていたので。 香川県の知人にここのチョコがかかっている芋けんぴが美味しいとの事でお土産に。 焼酎も売っていたのでいろいろと購入。駐車場も店内もいっぱいで繁盛している。自分では食べてないので味は分からず。 有難うございました。

    This Japanese sweets shop is part of the Harimayabashi Shopping Street in Harimaya-cho 1-Chome, Kochi City. It offers a number of Tosa-themed sweets including their Tosa Nikki, which feature strained adzuki bean paste wrapped in soft rice cake, their “Ryoma ga yuku”, a milk-based sweet made with lots of milk, and their “Tosa JIROLL”, roll cakes made with eggs from Kochi’s “Tosa Jiro” local chicken breed.

    はりまや橋商店街にある青柳本店です。 ガイドブックに載っていたのでいくつかお菓子を購入。「竜馬がゆく」「しまんとまろんぱい」と高知県らしいネーミングが良いです。どれも素朴な味で美味しかったです。ケーキ類、バレンタイン向け商品も販売されてました。

    Kouchi Pref. Kouchishi Chiyorichou 1-7-2
    30 meters from Chiyoricho-1-chome Station, this confectioner has been dealing in traditional Kochi sweets since 1688. A simple dried confection, kenpi is a traditional sweet inspired by bran and the shirakami-somen given by a purveyor of the Yamauchi clan lord. Also, traditional pickled plums, and new brands of sweets reminiscent of Sakamoto Ryoma and Yamauchi Kazutoyo (who have connections to Tosa), would make great gifts or souvenirs. Other popular items include “Tosa sweet” —a bouchee made with Tosa ingredients—and goat-milk pudding, made with lots of goat milk.

    尾長鶏のたまごという商品がお土産では人気ということで訪ねてみました。ただ、ここはロードサイドショップ。観光客にとっては不便でしょう。まあるい最中ですが、パッケージとかはリアルさを追求していて、けっこう面白いと思います。

    Kochi Kochi-shi Harimayacho 1-1-1
    This renowned Tosa confectioner sells about 3.5 million sweets per year and has been popular since its founding in 1962. Their yosakoibushi themed sweets are Kochi's best-known souvenir. In summer, chill them in the refrigerator for an hour or two, and in winter, remove them from their paper bag and warm them wrapped in foil in a toaster oven for 5.6 minutes to make them even tastier.

    はりまや橋、すぐ側にある青柳本店です。 ガイドブックに載っていたのでいくつかお菓子を購入しました。土佐めいか「かんざし」を購入。高知県らしいネーミングが良く、「万次郎かぼちゃパイ」と「人のよろしさ」を購入。どれも素朴な味で美味しかったですが特に「人のよろしさ」はもっちり生地に優しい甘さの餡が良く合い気に入りました。 店員さんの感じがとても良くさすが高知県を代表するお店だなと思いました。

    Kochi Kochi-shi Obiyamachi 1-7-16
    A shop founded in 1953 that makes and sells Japanese sweets. Their Miyakoman sweets, created the same year the Yosakoi Festival began, are famous. The preservative-free manju buns are made from shiroan bean jam, wheat flour, sugar, eggs, and honey; they are baked with the bean jam wrapped in the dough. They're also a popular snack for everyone from kids to adults. These simple, mild flavored treats make great gifts.

Kochi Areas

around-area-map

The largest of Shikoku’s prefectures, Kochi is endowed with some of the island’s most exceptional sand beaches lining the Pacific Ocean, which narrows into the Shimanto-gawa, a huge river that stretches 196 kilometers into the prefecture, passing verdant mountains and hosting countless riverside activities. Whether you’re a pilgrim or not, Kochi’s 16 Buddhist temples that make up one leg of the Shikoku Pilgrimage are worth a visit, particularly Chikurin-ji for its five-tier pagoda.
