Naruto Taiyaki Honpo Tenjinbashi

other

The Naruto Taiyaki Honpo on Tenjinbashi Street is marked by the constant plume of steam rising from its cast-iron molds. This shop specializes in taiyaki, a fish-shaped cake filled with sweet bean paste or custard. While many snack shops use automated machines, the bakers here hand-pour batter into individual, heavy metal molds over an open flame one at a time. This method creates a thin, exceptionally crisp shell that contrasts with the soft, hot filling inside.
