Kitchen in the Window, Japan

This is what I love about shopping for food in Japan – the kitchens are often in view of the customer!
Look at this one – they are making the sweets in the front window.

Kimonobox couldnt resist! And these manju are very good.

Perfect everytime

Advertised in the magazines – these manju are worth trying if you go to Kiyomizudera in Kyoto.

And they are obviously fresh – so I think the sign means – ‘eat them quick’ which we had no trouble in doing!

    You really don’t get to see such craftsmanship in the States. I’ve really missed seeing these displays at the front of restaurants. … I know it’s hokey, but I was super excited to see them again when I recently visited Japantown in San Francisco. Almost all of the restaurants there have these plastic food displays … except Beni-hana. (Go figure.)
