Asakusa Kibi-dango Azuma

Candy Store
A kibi dango (sweet rice dumplings covered with kinako, ground soy beans) specialty shop, located in Nakamise Avenue in Asakusa, Taito City, Tokyo. The shop reproduces the dumplings from Nakamise of the Edo period, demonstrating how they are made in front of you. The sound of the voices of the sales staff wearing samue (monk’s work clothes) or kimono echoes throughout the shop, and it is always crowded with tourists both from Japan and abroad. The dumplings coated generously with kinako have an elegant sweet taste. Take out souvenir ‘kibi dango’ and ‘kibi sable’ are also popular.

    Went to Asakusa just for this kibidango. In my memory, it’s still the same as it was four years ago when I first tried it. What I like about it is that it’s mini-sized, so it’s very easy-to-eat and...

    5本入りです。量も少なく、食べ歩きに良いです。ただし決められた所ででしか食べられないので、買ったら横にあるスペースでいただきます。そして美味しいです。これはまた買いたいと思います。お茶も150円で一緒に購入することができるので、よく合うと思います。食べ終わった後の下はきな粉だらけで…それだけきな粉が大量にかかっているきびだんごでした。
  • 浅草観光の1つとして楽しむきびだんご

    浅草雷門の仲見世通りにあるきびだんごのお店。きびだんごは1人前5本で350円。袋の中にはきな粉がたっぷり入っていました。きびだんご自体はおもちできな粉は甘めのきな粉。かなりきな粉がかかっているので食べてるとこぼれやすいので注意です。浅草観光の1つとしては良いと思いました。
