    家族で買い物とご飯を食べに来ました。雰囲気のいいモールですが人がかなり少ないので快適。施設と客が合ってない感があるけどショップの種類も多くてオススメです。

    Ehime Pref. Imabarishi Kyoueichou 2-2-54
    This long-standing western-style confectioner is an Imabari landmark. First opened in 1903 they've continued to offer the same flavor over four generations. One of their hallmarks is that summer classic, shaved ice. The making of the shaved ice is overseen by the shop's patissier owner and after being shaken and whipped it stands out for its smooth melt-in-your-mouth texture. They offer 30 different flavors including their Milkshake with the classic sweetness and Strawberry-Milk with the luxurious taste of strawberries. During the winter months they open as a coffee shop and mainly sell cakes.

    ここのミルクセーキは最高です。子供の頃から変わらぬ味。しかし、ミルクセーキだけでなく、苺も、抹茶も、胡麻、コーヒー、マンゴー、ブルーベリーたくさんのスペシャルなたも迷ってしまう事になります。 帰省したら必ず食べたくなります。 地方発送もありますが、是非お店で食べてくださいな。

In the Edo period, Ote Manju (creamy bean paste buns) were popular in the area around Imabari Castle, and it is said that Keiran Manju were invented by the first owner of Isshodo, who used eggs instead of water when he kneaded the dough. Baked Keiran Manju are one of the products available only at this shop. However, Isshodo sells sweets other than Manju, including baked goods such as tarts and Castella cake. All of these are extremely popular souvenirs.

Stretched across the northwest corner of Shikoku island, Ehime is a nature-rich prefecture boasting beautiful coastlines and a rural center where mountains play host to 26 of the Buddhist temples that make up the Shikoku Pilgrimage. Matsuyama is home to an original post-feudal castle as well as Dogo Onsen, one of the country’s oldest natural hot springs. The northern city of Imabari marks the entrance to the Shimano Kaido, a road that crosses six spectacular bridges and several islands, forming a route between Shikoku and mainland Honshu.
