When you're in Uenohara, you have to try the local specialty, sake manju, and Higashiyama is a beloved spot to do just that. The buns here are wonderfully fluffy and moist, a perfect treat to grab while you're exploring the town. It's a small, unassuming shop, but the deliciousness of their manju, especially the smooth and sweet bean paste fillings, makes it a must-visit for an authentic taste of the area.
