Beef Mochi Bowl
Gyudon with Himenomochi rice cakes

About Beef Mochi Bowl
The Beef Mochi Bowl (牛餅丼, Gyumochidon) replaces the rice in a traditional gyudon (beef bowl) with soft and delicious mochi made from Shinjo Village's famous "Himenomochi" rice cakes. The smooth, chewy texture of the mochi pairs perfectly with the slightly sweet, savory sauce and tender beef toppings, creating a dish that lets you fully enjoy the unique flavor of Himenomochi.
In Shinjo Village, this dish has become a popular way to enjoy Himenomochi in a new style. It is sold at roadside stations and other local spots, making it a much-loved souvenir for visitors. The Himenomochi from Shinjo Village is made using water from the Shinjo River, which flows from the pristine beech forests of Mount Kenashi. Thanks to the area's cool summer nights and warm days, this mochi is especially prized for its strong stickiness and natural sweetness.
