mochi and tea

I like mochi. And now that P has had some real mochi, he loves mochi too. Yay!

We bought an assortment, some of which were completely new to me. I think my favourite was an inside-out mochi, which had a covering of smooth chestnut paste (a bit like marron glace paste, but paler in colour) with a small ball of mochi buried within. It was even shaped a bit like a chestnut. One to go back for...

Mochi from Mikawaya in Little Tokyo.
