Akamon-do, established in 1949 in Kashima City, Saga Prefecture, is a confectionery shop offering a variety of Japanese and Western-style sweets. A local favorite is the Akamon Manju, a small, oval-shaped bun filled with yellow bean paste and flavored with soy sauce koji and black mirin. The name "Akamon" refers to the existing main gate of Kashima Castle. It is best to visit during the afternoon. This is a great place to stop by for a quick snack.
