3D Animation designed by Mr. Jiraphan Jindawong

“Homu” derives from the word Home in Japanese, which Pemika “Ying” Thanlumlethkul, the owner of the Homu, has rented a historic building in Charoenkrung 44 to locate this shop. The shop maintains the condition of the building to create an atmosphere of a house in which the decoration reveals the building’s structure and the walls that still retain their original paint and mortar.

Every menu is homemade. Pemika once learnt all of the recipes from a Japanese sweet shop in Yokohama, Japan. The signature dish is Warabimochi, a sweet made from Warabiko starch and covered soy powder or Kinako. The secret to traditional deliciousness is to pour Kuro Mitsu syrup one bite at a time for a soft and smooth texture. Another recommended menu is Japanese Water Mochi, the shop delicately uses mineral water from Mount Fuji to make a round jelly, like a drop of water, and covered with soy powder or Kinako for a light peanut aroma and eat it with Kuro Mitsu syrup, to feel delicious and refreshing.

The store may take a long time to prepare since the menu is made piece by piece to guarantee the deliciousness and the original taste. The shop also serves a wide variety of teas e.g., flower tea, fruit tea: peach, strawberry, blackcurrant, because of the Japanese culture, people enjoy hot tea with Mochi. But if anyone likes iced tea, they can also serve with ice.
