Pachinko Store
Espace Pachinko Parlor

Pachinko stores are popular all year round in Japan. At New Year many of the stores give gifts to their customers and wish them a Happy New Year. This store was making and giving out free mochi as a promotion.

Making the mochi in the street. Hope nothing falls in the bowl.
Plenty of help in making the mochi, the guys in blue are from the store, and lots of customers lining up.
A quick peek inside the store. Seems to be more people lining up for mochi than playing pachinko right now.

Are you a fan of mochi?

    I discovered mochi for the first time while in Singapore. I've even had an ice cream mochi. The stuff is good. I can't eat more than a few pieces at a time though. If I do the taste isn't as... exciting I guess. Definitely can't overdo it.

    Saw people making it at a Jp school fair. The cook was apparently a good one from a japanese restaurant. They did hit the stuff really hard! Funny!
