Ryushodo - a Japanese confectionery store from Yame City, Fukuoka Prefecture celebrates its 100 years anniversary in 2022 and opens a new store TAI TO AN at Mitsui Shopping Park LaLaport FUKUOKA. Their signature item is TAIYAKI, a snack that has been popular for many years in Japan. Generally you make it by pouring a dough containing wheat flour into a metal mold in the shape of a sea bream (TAI), adding red bean paste in the middle and then baking it (YAKI). In this shop you can find many different flavors such as red bean paste, white bean paste, custard and the special flavor: Yame matcha bean paste! Yame matcha tea is a specialty of Fukuoka Prefecture and is abundantly used in this Yame matcha flavour taiyaki! When you take one bite, the mellow aroma and flavor of matcha tea and bean paste mix together in a bitter-sweet flavor-symphony. You will be amazed at how delicious this is!

If you want to buy some souvenirs besides taiyaki, try "Mont Blanc Daifuku"- sweets with delicious chestnut cream, "warabi-mochi" made of genuine warabi powder and kinako and rich matcha flavored "Ochaman". Enjoy many different Japanese sweets offered by this sweets shop that originated in Yame City, Fukuoka Prefecture.
