Kaachan no Mise

Located along the Kumano-gawa River, they sell souvenirs made out of local ingredients and serve hearty local cuisine. In the dining area, you can eat Nanki home-style dishes like Sanma-Zushi and Mehari-Zushi. In the Kumano corner, they sell famous mugwort rice cakes called "Tadanori mochi" and local vegetables as well. The store is next to the road station/rest stop called "Doro-kyo Kaido Kumano-gawa River", alongside the Kumanogawa River Boat Tour port.
