Senbon Gyokujuken, a long-established Japanese confectionery store that has been in business for over 80 years, has opened a tea house to the north of its main store. The name of the restaurant comes from the local nickname "Sendama-san".
``We want people to enjoy the process of making Japanese sweets here and taste them freshly made,'' says Maya Motoshima, the third generation owner of the shop. When you receive your order, the sight of the craftsmen finishing the namagashi at the counter is a sight to behold.
