"It's raining outside... I'd prefer staying home".
At that moment, wouldn't you like to relax with a cup of tea with some seasonal Japanese sweets?
Matsuya, the Japanese confectionery founded in 1888, is the place I would like to recommend you.
It's known by making cute seasonal sweets.
"The goldfish" swimming in the plum liquor flavored agar is especially popular! It looks cool and a must to try during hot seasons.
