Signature Dishes
Mitaimu Rice Noodles
The rice noodles are springy; dry, mixed, and soup versions are available. The latter two are light in flavor and may taste mild.
Bowl Rice Cake
The top has a pure-rice, old-fashioned character and a faint rice aroma; it may also be soft and light on ingredients.
Herbal Rice Cake
The skin is soft and springy; the savory-taro version is soft and glutinous with savory, fragrant taro cubes. The bean-paste version has a distinct sandy texture, may be salty, and may have a faint mugwort aroma.
Savory Oil Rice
The savory oil rice is pre-boxed and may become firm with little aroma after cooling; it can be taken away at breakfast and eaten at noon.
Taro Rice Cake
The taro aroma is rich, and the texture is substantial without being dry.
