Roadside station “Yamabikokan”

The ``Roadside Station'' Yamabiko-kan has a direct-from-the-farm corner selling local specialties, a restaurant called ``Momo-tei'' that serves menus made with local ingredients, a local food corner, and specialties not only from the local area but also from the surrounding area. It is a hub for a wide range of food, including a corner where food is sold. In addition, at the adjacent farm direct store, fresh vegetables and seasonal wild vegetables delivered daily by local farmers are popular.

cute black beans

This healthy drink is made by blending the extract of black flat beans (gankui beans), a specialty of the Kawai region of Miyako City, with pure honey harvested at the foot of Mt. Hayachine. Black beans contain a lot of saponin and iron, and saponin in particular is said to be good for the throat and has been used for a long time.

apple

The apples grown in the Niisato area are full of sweet honey and are called ``leafless apples''. This apple is unique to Niisato, where it snows late, and its sugar content is about 3 degrees higher than regular apples.
