Nakatanidou in Nara City is famous for its high-speed mochi pounding, You can watch the mochitsuki performances where skilled workers churn out soft and chewy yomogi mochi at lightning speed. It's super impressive really! And then make sure to enjoy the delicious mochi dusted with kinako and filled with sweet red bean paste. We got one every time we passed the shop. ツ
