“Mochi†is attractive for its chewy texture and subtle sweetness. Following bread and cakes, it became a popular dessert menu after bread and cakes, to the extent that the word “pilgrimage to rice cake†came into being when looking for a delicious rice cake shop. Among the many rice cake shops, there is a rice cake shop made by a master with sincerity and passion! From daifuku that you can enjoy grilling hot to Injeolmi made from wild mugwort grown while withstanding the sea breeze! Here are 5 of the best rice cake shops in the country presented by a master of living.
1. 'Sacred Heart Rice Cake Shop' in Bupyeong-dong, Incheon, with its subtle sweetness

â–²Review (Shikigin Bling Bling Shiny): A rice cake shop located inside Bupyeong Market! It's also for tasting, so you can taste and choose before you buy it. The most famous miso goes well with the white bean paste in the savory Injeolmi! I also recommend the mugwort mix, which has the pleasant scent of mugwort ^^

▲Opening hours: 07:00 — 19:00 every day, closed on Sundays
â–²Price: Anko slices 5,000 won, Gungjung Injeolmi 7,000 won
â–²Testimonial (King Innu 5959): Since it's in the neighborhood, it's a place I often stop by. Since the recent popularity of sliced persimmons became popular, Shirunamu rice cake shops have been eaten all over the place and settled down. The chewy mochi contains sweet red bean paste, so it's an addictive flavor that makes me keep eating it without even knowing it.

â–²Testimonial (eat, drink, punch): I went on a trip to Busan and stopped by Can Tong Market and then tasted it! It was a place I went to by chance, but the Master of Life also showed up! The daifuku is baked without being greasy, but the outside is crispy and the inside is chewy, so the outside is chewy >_<! Note that you can only buy up to 4 grilled daifuku per person, he_hehe!

â–²Review (Shikigin Donkey Kong Kong): Cakes made with mugwort and ice cream are really five stars thanks to Mugwort, who loves ice cream!!! It's a place I want to give it to. This place doesn't sell in small quantities; they are sold in boxes, but if you freeze them and eat them little by little, it's clear before you know it! You can really enjoy the rich scent of mugwort, and since it's soaked in soybean water, you can also enjoy it in a variety of ways! hehe

Soy daifuku goes really well with the chewy yet savory soybean powder that fills your mouth and the sweet red bean paste that fills your mouth!
