What is Dango-ya Mori?
Originating from Sendai, Dango-ya Mori prides itself on delivering dumplings made with pure, natural ingredients, completely free from preservatives or artificial additives. They focus on preserving the genuine flavors and textures of traditional Japanese dumplings, ensuring everyone, from children to seniors, can enjoy their treats safely and healthily.
Every morning, Dango-ya Mori receives fresh shipments of their signature 'Shiro Dango' (white dumplings) from Sendai. These dumplings are amazingly soft and have a delightful chewy texture that melts in your mouth. They stay fresh even when refrigerated and make excellent gifts, suitable for any occasion.
Unique Serving Style
Dango-ya Mori offers a unique ‘create-on-demand’ serving style. Upon ordering, the dumplings are generously spread with a rich filling, allowing customers to enjoy the freshness and craftsmanship that characterizes Dango-ya Mori. The thick fillings are subtly sweet, enhancing the dumplings’ natural flavors and ensuring an enjoyable experience from start to finish.
In addition to this, the store features Dango-ya Mori's first eat-in style outlet. Patrons can take a break and indulge in exclusive set meals available only at the Marui Family Mizokuchi location. Don't miss this chance to savor these meticulously crafted dumplings.
A Wide Variety of Choices
Dango-ya Mori offers six classic varieties of dumplings, each paired perfectly with their rich fillings. Customers can choose from:
- - Subtly sweet 'Anko' (red bean paste)
- - Nutty 'Kurumi' (walnut)
- - Earthy 'Zunda' (edamame)
- - Rich 'Goma' (sesame)
- - Salty 'Peanuts'
- - Fragrant 'Shoyu' (soy sauce)
Each dumpling is generously coated with filling, creating a delightful pairing with the chewy white dumplings. Customers can purchase single pieces, making it easy to sample different flavors. Each piece is priced at 300 yen (including tax).
Moreover, seasonal flavors that reflect the changing seasons are available too. In spring, enjoy the vibrant 'Sakura' filling; in summer, indulge in the bittersweet 'Matcha' filling; autumn brings the sweet 'Kuri' (chestnut) filling, and in winter, savor the sweet 'Kabocha' (pumpkin) filling. Each season offers a unique tasting experience for customers to enjoy!
Additionally, customers can also find the beloved Sendai confection 'Tsutsumi-age' at the shop. It features a crispy outer layer and a fluffy inside that perfectly complements the sweet filling, making it a must-try item. Available at 150 yen (including tax).
For those who wish to get creative at home, various fillings are available for separate purchase. They can be spread on toast, drizzled over ice cream, or paired with any dessert, giving an infinite number of ways to enjoy them. These make perfect souvenirs or gifts, pleasing to both the giver and receiver.
At the eat-in area, try the popular 'Zunda Shake' for a refreshing taste of edamame. During warmer months, fluffy shaved ice will be on offer, while in chillier periods, heartwarming sweet red bean soup will be available. Each item is a special offering that can only be found at Dango-ya Mori.
