Minamoto Kitchoan

The service I received at K. Minamoto was superb and I didn't expect anything less. The staff was extremely attentive and really knew their product... they helped me pick-out a perfect gift for my colleagues. The woman who assisted me was very helpful and pleasant and the gentleman who wrapped my gifts in the "furoshiki" did an excellent job. Everything was a little pricey, but I felt like every penny was well spent.

This is a high end Japanese snack or dessert shop. It's located in the middle of Ala Moana shopping mall. The items might be seasonal and they looked too pretty to eat sometime. Large selections of cakes, mochi, daifuku, baumkuchen, castella cake, etc. It's very well presented. Very classy decor. It's a chain as I have seen their other stores across US and other countries.

My first time going into this store! My fiance got a box of assorted goodies from here so after eating most of it myself, I figured I'd better replace some items that I ate. The ladies working were really nice & welcoming. I'm not sure why these are called sherbets. They have a jello-like consistency & you can eat them chilled in the refrigerator or frozen. I like them chilled so I can really taste the flavor. These sherbets are delicious but oh so expensive at over $4 each. It's a good thing I don't live close by. These are totally worth it for a once in awhile treat!
