We are French Monster Setouchi Food Art - a confectionery studio located next to the Yomomi Observatory, one of the most beautiful viewpoints in Tokushima. Naruto kintoki sweet potatoes, sudachi, uzushio berries, kigashira yuzu, wasanbon, daiginjo sake lees from the Honke Matsuura Sake Brewery...and many more. We use these delicious products of Tokushima producers and offer them in French pastries. The best part is that our location is perfect, and even our local customers in Tokushima have given their stamp of approval, saying, "The view from here is exceptional". Please follow the Naruto Skyline to the top of Shimada Island from Tokushima's representative tourist spots, such as Naruto's whirlpools and the Otsuka Museum of Art. It is only a 10-15 minute drive. The scenery on the way is spectacular, so please take your time while driving. This time, we have prepared a set of three specialties of our workshop. * Naruto Kintoki Cream Sandwich "To the Moon, to Naruto", winner of the Grand Prize in the Setouchi Souvenir Contest. Naruto Kintoki, a sweet potato from Tokushima, is made into an original cream. It is a French pastry sandwiched between hand-baked sablé. It is made with the feeling of "yearning for France and gratitude to Tokushima" in mind. (Handwritten package by calligrapher Shosen, 2 x 5 bags, regular price 1,944 yen) * Naruto Daini Buttons, a sable made from Daiginjo sake lees, used on JAL domestic flights in first class. A trifecta of sake lees, wasanbon, and Italian cheese Grana Padano, which was given to us by the original Matsuura Sake Brewery. The lingering taste is an adult sable. "A salted sweet that goes well with champagne." (20 pieces in a special box with button, regular price 1,404 yen) * "Amour de Monstar Naruto New Moon" scrub salt with the scent of the new moon. Aroma massage salt developed by French Monster. It is also used at the esthetic salon of the Ridge, a top-class resort hotel in Naruto. The Naruto whirlpools are larger at the time of the new moon and full moon. The sea salt and wakame seaweed ingredients from Naruto will make your skin glowing, and the citrus-based "new moon scent," made with five kinds of essential oils, will heal your skin. Experience the power of Naruto's new moon in your bathroom. (Wrapped in a lime green wrapping Regular price 3,300 yen) We have a variety of sweets and beverages available for eat-in only. Please spend a relaxing moment while enjoying the spectacular view. We look forward to serving you.

Yamainudake
This mountain is located 997 meters above sea level in the center of Kamikatsu Town. It is one of the best places to see moss in Tokushima Prefecture from July to October. It is a natural sanctuary where deep green moss grows in clusters on the rocks, creating an almost mysterious atmosphere. It takes about an hour's walk from the nearest parking lot, and you should make sure to wear comfortable walking clothes as the paths are steep because they used to be training paths for mountain priests in the past.
