Saiso Shoten is a charming, retro-style shop in Yurihonjo City, Akita Prefecture, famous for its generously filled obanyaki (large pancakes). Located near the Oomachi police station and easily spotted by its large obanyaki sign, this shop offers both white bean and red bean fillings, packed to the edges and affordably priced at ¥150 each. Enjoy your pancake in the shop with complimentary tea, and during the Hina Matsuri season, admire the display of Showa-era Goten Hina dolls. A must-visit for a satisfying and sweet treat!
