    御殿場のアウトレットの近くにあります。 アウトレットは早い時間は混むので昼過ぎに家を出てこのカフェでゆっくりお茶をしてからアウトレットへ向かいます(アウトレットは土日でも夕方は駐車場も空いています)。 流石に岸氏の邸宅の一部。入り口からお店までは鬱蒼とした森の中の小道を散歩がてら進みます。 お店は持ち帰りとイートインを同じところで注文します。お茶のお代わりは無料です。 甘い和菓子と少し渋めのお茶は...

    御殿場IC第1出口のすぐそばです。 試食が再開されていました。 ウイルス駆除の機械を導入したり、手づかみ禁止にしたりなど、感染対策を徹底していました。あとは訪問者が守るかどうかですが、それが気になる人はそもそも試食をしないと思います。 試食の枚数や種類に制限はないのですが、試食したいせんべいを取り終えた後でまとめて食べることになるので、買いたいものが見つかっても何味か覚えられずに困りました。試食場...

    Shizuoka Pref. Izunokunishi Minamiema 1788-2
    This shop specializes in strawberry daifuku, a sweet that features rice cake stuffed with fresh strawberries picked that morning. Made fresh every day, their strawberry daifuku are popular for their sweet scent, great taste, and substantial volume. In addition to strawberry daifuku, the shop also offers a number of other daifuku made with fresh fruit such as melon and grape, which are seasonal exclusives. We recommend going early, as the shop closes up as soon as it runs out of inventory for the day.

    取引先の方と来店しました。契約先に行く前にここでお土産のいちご大福を購入。ここのいちご大福は大きくて、美味しいから相手先に行く時は必ず購入。しかも、中身はいちごだけでなく葡萄や季節の果物が中に入り、相手先にも大変喜ばれます。自分で食べるのにも帰りにお土産で買います。

    Shizuoka Izunokuni-shi Nagaoka 1288-6
    This Japanese confectionary shop founded in 1945 was the first shop in the Nakaizu Onsenkyo hot spring village to sell onsen manju (hot spring steamed buns). The shop is located just next to the Fujidana bus stop on the Izuhakone Bus Nagaoka Onsenba Loop, about a six-minute bus ride from the Izu-Nagaoka Station on the Izuhakone Railway. Their onsen manju, which are made using carefully-selected ingredients and without any preservatives or food coloring, are notable for the smooth texture of their pastry covering and the pleasantly light flavor of their bean paste filling. All of the shop's products are made the day they are sold, so the shop closes as soon as it sells out.

    物心がついた時には「あずさ」と「黒柳」は地元で有名な温泉おまんじゅうでした。 2000年過ぎに「あずさ」が閉店し、今は長岡土産といえば「黒柳」になってます。 昔と変わらず、餡の甘さも懐かしい味です。

    評判が良さそうだったので伺いましたが・・・私的には相性が悪かったようです。 常連さんメインの店の雰囲気、確かにいつ来るかわからない観光客相手には冷めた態度も分からなくはないですが、次は無いかな-と思いました。数点かいましたが、そのような事もあり味は余り美味しく感じられませんでした。置いてあるものが和菓子などなので敢えて冷房が効いていなかったのか店内は蒸し暑くその中でおこわなどが並んでいましたが、購...

    This famous confection shop has been operated by three successive generations since opening in 1960. It is famous for its iira-manju (steamed buns with sweet bean paste), which won the Grand Prize at the 18th National Confectionery Expo. These steamed buns are made in accordance with a philosophy staying faithful to the basics and never being swayed by passing fads. Stuffed with plenty of carefully-made coarse red bean paste, they are quite filling due to being larger than typical onsen manju.

    Shizuoka Izunokuni-shi Nagaoka 1078-1
    This venerable Japanese confectionary shop was founded in 1916. It is located about a 10-minute bus ride from Izu-Nagaoka Station on the Izuhakone Railway on Izuhakone Bus and then about a two-minute walk from the Onsen-eki bus stop. Their flagship product is their Prime Minister's Prize-winning Nagaoka manju. This long-selling confection is noted for the slight saltiness and gentle sweetness of its red bean paste filling and the soft and fluffy texture of its pastry covering. Another offering is their joyo manju (grated yam steamed buns), a substantial confection notable for its chewy texture made with top-grade rice flour. We also recommend seasonal items such as their kuri yokan (chestnut red bean paste jellies), which are made entirely by hands by the shop's craftsmen without the use of machines.

    二種類頂きましたが、素材の味が活きてる感じです。 ながお菓まんじゅうは香ばしい感じの皮にこし餡、薯蕷まんじゅうは山芋の風味がかすかにしながらのこし餡、ともに甘さが強く感じるものの小さめなのでしつこさを感じず美味しく頂けました。 ながお菓まんじゅうは、つぶあんも選べるようなので次はこちらも頂きたいと思います。

    Shizuoka Izu-shi Kashiwa Kubo 1355
    This Japanese confection shop is located about a three-minute walk from Shuzenji Station on the Izuhakone Railway. Its owner has been certified as a Selected Wagashi Professional, a title only bestowed to truly skilled Japanese confectioners. The shop creates Japanese confections characteristic of Shuzenji while both preserving traditions and also changing with the times. One of the shop's most popular products is its Shuzenji-yaki, which are pancake sandwiches made with brown sugar from Okinawa's Hateruma Island. Another is their Kogiku Manju buns, a confection featuring a fluffy castella covering and a custard cream filling that has been made since the time of the current proprietor's predecessor. We also recommend their Yokubari Dango, which feature rice flour dumplings with strained bean paste filling and then covered with a sweet soy glaze.

    修善寺駅から徒歩3分の修善寺和菓子処は自家製餡にこだわりを持ち全て職人が練り上げたもので添加ものは未使用ですが、どら焼き用の粒餡は、渋を残したしっかり風味にしてあります。小菊まんじゅうは140円、黒糖どらやきは162円です。

    Shizuoka Kosai-shi Araicho Arai 1293
    A traditional Japanese confectionary located a ten-minute walk from Araimachi Station, on the right side of National Route 301 while proceeding west from the Araimachi-ekimae Intersection. The Arai Sekisho (checkpoint on the Edo Period Tokaido Road) is nearby, and Ugetsuen is an attractive stop-off point during sightseeing in the area. Ugetsuen's most famous product Uzumaki, which won the Honorary Gold Award at the National Confectionery Exposition, is a simple confection made from brown sugar, wheat flour and baking powder. Even people who taste it for the first time say that it makes them feel strangely nostalgic. Another variety of Uzumaki is filled with bean jam. The shop also sells a wide variety of seasonally limited treats, such as Kashiwa Mochi (rice cake wrapped in an oak leaf). These often sell out, so pre-ordering is advised.

    Shizuoka Omaezaki Ikeshinden 4110-4
    A traditional Japanese confectionary located across a bridge to the west of Sakuragaike Park, is famous for its Kame-manju (stuffed buns) made in the shape of a turtle. Originally, it was a bakery, but local customers asked for the manju that was set up in front of the shop as a New Year's decoration. The manju called a big topic, so they started selling them as a product. They also make an idea gift, as a turtle is a lucky charm in Japan. The shop also sells a wide variety of baked and unbaked confections as well as items that are available only during certain seasons.

Shizuoka Areas

around-area-map

With the giant Pacific Ocean to the south and the great Mount Fuji to the north, Shizuoka prefecture is blessed with some of the best views the country has to offer. The white sand beaches of the Izu Peninsula are a rare find on mainland Japan, neighbored by beautiful cliffs, tumbling hills, and natural hot springs. As Japan’s largest producer of green tea, the age-old tradition of tea drinking is ubiquitous in Shizuoka, from the miles of tea fields to the old tea houses hosting traditional tea ceremonies.
