Details
Kameya Honpo is a famous mugwort dumpling shop located near Shibamata Taishakuten. It also serves as a reference point for the protagonist "Ayin's" hometown dumpling shop in the movie "The Man's True Destiny." The shop you see now is a building reconstructed in 1971, but it still retains an old-fashioned charm, making it a great place to visit after paying respects at Shibamata Taishakuten. The first floor is the main customer area, but when there are many visitors, the banquet space on the second floor is also opened. Here, they offer exquisite products meticulously made using traditional natural materials. The signature mugwort dumplings are made with fresh mugwort, and one bite fills your mouth with a fragrant aroma and excellent texture. The red bean filling uses specially selected red beans from Tokachi, Hokkaido. The "Dumpling Skewers Platter with 5 Varieties," which allows you to enjoy various flavors at once, is particularly popular. Additionally, don’t miss the weekend-only offerings of "Nori Dumplings," "Fried Dumplings," and seasonal flavors like cherry blossom, chestnut, lemon, and yuzu.
