Nakao Food, comes from a konjac maker which was founded in 1927, the company has opened a raw sweet potato smoothie shop called “Konjac+” on the first floor of ALTA.
Throughout the successive manufacturing techniques, its finely mashed raw sweet potato konjac Smoothie creates a rich and intense in flavor. It tastes like a sweets and is very delicious.
By the way, a red flower which looks like a carnivorous plant decorated inside the store seems to be a flower of konjac.
Konjac is supposed to be an ancient Japanese food, but this is the first time I knew that Konjac blooms from these kinds of flowers.
It seems that it is called Devil’s Tongue in English.
“Maruyaka Green” costs 490 yen for R-size and 700 yen for L-size. “Mamotte Acai” costs 650 yen (L-size only).
