Taking a walk aimlessly for about an hour, we happened to find an old Japanese style sweets shop or 'Dengaku-ya-san' in the edge of Tochigi city downtown area.
They served miso-taste-dengaku dish and Japanese tea.
We enjoyed both food and seeing a neatly preserved patio.
Amazingly, they said that the shop opened in the year 1781.
... more than two hundred years ago ...
I knew 'Abu-Den' (full name (shop name or old trading name) 'Abura-Ya Denbei').
