What the creator captured
はっしーのグルメ散歩 was particularly impressed by the whole watermelon shaved ice from Mucha Kajitsuen, noting its high quality and clever use of chocolate as seeds. Despite the disappointment of missing the famous Nakatanidou mochi by just one person, he thoroughly enjoyed the unique salt kelp takoyaki and traditional tea-cooked onigiri. He concluded that the fruit-focused shaved ice is a must-eat item for anyone visiting the Nara area in summer.
