- This dumpling shop is located on Takayama Honmachi 2-chome shopping street, which was once the central shopping location in Takayama. For over 60 years since its establishment, their mitarashi dango (rice dough dumplings with sweet-salty sauce) using original dumpling dough and soy sauce ordered directly from a soy sauce brewery were famous. Takayama's mitarashi dango are different from everyday sweet and salty dumplings, and are characterized by their unsweet taste from being made with the fragrance of the soy sauce-based sauce.

- Gifu Takayama-shi Honmachi 3-1
- This dumpling shop is located a ten-minute walk from Takayama Station at the foot of Kajiyabashi Bridge. It sells salty mitarashi dumplings (rice dough dumplings with sweet-salty sauce) that are fragrantly made with an original soy sauce-based sauce instead of the usual sweet dumplings. Their sauce has a traditional flavor that has been used since its establishment. It is a special sauce made by blending three types of soy sauce. The shop also sells Hida's local dish of gohei-mochi rice cakes (grilled rice cakes skewered and basted in sweet walnut miso) that are also not sweet, so you can experience the slight sweetness of the glutinous rice.

高山の定番、鍛冶橋のたもとで頂いたみたらしだんご90円。世間でいう甘辛のタレで頂くそれではなくお醤油のタレをつけてこんがり焼き上げるタイプ。これが高山流みたらしだそうです。こまお店、何度訪れたか分かりません。 見慣れた鍛冶橋店のおばちゃん、相変わらず頑張ってるようですが…この日のおばちゃん、無愛想&不機嫌でした。

- The Train Bleu bakery, which attaches great importance to ensuring that ordinary bread is made as delicious as possible every day, is very popular with local residents. On weekends and public holidays, Train Bleu can get so crowded that it has to issue numbered tickets to customers. Besides basic, everyday breads, Train Bleu also sells first-class Viennoiserie (pastries); one especially popular product features seasonal fruit with cream on a delicate croissant base. The bakery closes when it is sold out for the day, so it’s best to get there early. Train Bleu is located around 20-minute drive from the Takayama Interchange of the Chubu Jukan Expressway.
