Chikara Mochi - Gardena


Artisan mochi, cash only, impossible hours if you’re working 9-5.




Some are just pretty, a crystal flower, a swimming shark. These are filled with a smooth white bean paste, light in flavor, medium-dense in texture. 


Some are practical, like this two-pack of Yaki Dango. I love the sweet and savory soy film on these chewy little spheres and I would like then even better grilled.








The flavored mochi are subtle yet impactful. The orange is like a brushstroke of juice inside, the peach has a juicy essence, and the apple is almost crisp. The matcha is grainy green and soft. 


Gorgeous little mochi, made fresh, worth pursuing. One of Gardena’s little treasures, make sure you hit them up on you next run to Meiji Tofu.
