Truly Munchy in Japan - Tokyo Souvenirs (Taneya)

Munchy found this delicious red bean dessert on a trip to Ginza Mitsukoshi, Tokyo.

The crisp pastry is packed separately from the red bean filling (so that it retains its crispiness),

when put together, its a perfect combination, 

especially with the slightly chewy red bean filling that comes with mochi in the middle!

A perfect gift from Tokyo!
