I had a really fun time during this experience. You get to learn about mochi history and culture in Japan by two great guides and then take part in the making. The guides were really nice and funny and everyone in the group got the chance to pound the Mochi with everyone shouting "Yoi-Sho !"
Then you can eat the very fresh mochi you made with a lot of toppings on it. I definitely recommend the Anko + Cocoa + whipped cream which is great for people who are not used to the flavor and texture of Mochi.
If you're planning to go at a time close to a meal, please consider than eating the mochi fills you so much that you don't need any food until the next meal (I'm a big eater).
Have fun with pounding and eat carefully !

We came here April 2025. We love supporting small businesses. We had such a fun, physical and learning experience! The owner and his assistant were so friendly and knowledgeable of the history of mochi. We learned the history and significance of mochi, we pounded and made mochi, and we had tea with our mochi we made. The kids even received a gift at the end. So cool! Our kids were jet lag but had so much fun. We would highly recommend this experience!!! We want to go back!!!

We had a wonderful time here! We came because my child’s friend wanted to visit, and we’re so glad we did. Everyone had a blast making mochi. At first, I was worried because my kids aren’t big fans of mochi, and I wasn’t sure what they’d do after making it. But to my surprise, they ended up eating a ton! They said, “It was so fun to make, super fresh, and there were so many flavors” (they especially loved the cocoa). That’s why they couldn’t stop eating! Even during festivals, you can’t get fresh mochi like this. I highly recommend it!

★★★★★ A Fun and Unique Mochitsuki Experience for the Whole Family!

I joined this traditional Japanese mochitsuki (rice cake pounding) experience with my 5-year-old son and 2-year-old daughter, and we all had an amazing time! The staff was very kind and guided us through the process, making it easy even for young children to try pounding the rice with the wooden mallet.

The freshly made mochi was soft and delicious! We got to try classic flavors like kinako (roasted soybean flour), anko (sweet red bean paste), mitarashi soy sauce, and roasted seaweed. But what surprised us was the unique and creative flavors—cocoa and fresh cream! My 2-year-old daughter especially loved the mochi with fresh cream, while my son was a big fan of the cocoa mochi.

It was a wonderful experience that combined Japanese tradition with new flavors, making it both educational and fun. We had a fantastic time as a family, and I highly recommend this experience to anyone, especially those with young children. We’d love to come back again!

★★★★★ A Fun and Unique Mochitsuki Experience for the Whole Family!

I joined this traditional Japanese mochitsuki (rice cake pounding) experience with my 5-year-old son and 2-year-old daughter, and we all had an amazing time! The staff was very kind and guided us through the process, making it easy even for young children to try pounding the rice with the wooden mallet.

The freshly made mochi was soft and delicious! We got to try classic flavors like kinako (roasted soybean flour), anko (sweet red bean paste), mitarashi soy sauce, and roasted seaweed. But what surprised us was the unique and creative flavors—cocoa and fresh cream! My 2-year-old daughter especially loved the mochi with fresh cream, while my son was a big fan of the cocoa mochi.

It was a wonderful experience that combined Japanese tradition with new flavors, making it both educational and fun. We had a fantastic time as a family, and I highly recommend this experience to anyone, especially those with young children. We’d love to come back again!
