Signature Dishes
Oil Shallot Rice Cake
Steamed from rice batter, with a smooth, springy texture and a mild rice aroma; the garlic oil sauce is mildly sweet and salty, while fried shallots add aroma, so use less sauce if it tastes salty.
Taro Rice Cake
The taro pieces are easy to see and the taro aroma is strong; the texture may be springy or firm and slightly dry, with a mild flavor that the sweet-and-spicy sauce can overpower, so use only a little.
Pork-and-Taro Rice Ball
The rice-cake skin wraps pork chunks with taro pieces and taro aroma; there have been instances of firm, porky-tasting meat, and adding too much sweet-and-spicy sauce may cover the original flavor.
