    Gifu Pref. Takayamashi Asahimachi 2
    This Japanese confectionery is a nine-minute walk from JR Takayama Station. Their popular Neko Manju are delicious and fun to look at. They offer five varieties modeled on the alley cats that gather in the lane behind the shop: tiger, Russian blue, black, white, and tortoise-shell patterned. The dough and bean paste vary with the cat, so it's fun to try them and compare. They also have what's said to be the ultimate Takayama autumn confection, kuri yose, made with chestnuts. Naturally sweet, they don't get heavy however many you eat. If you like sweets, you may find yourself eating the whole thing before you know it.
