What you’ll find

What Tzen Chi Mochi (曾記麻糬) is known for

Taiwan's National Cultural Memory Bank archives the original storefront of this shop under the record "曾記麻糬創始店" (Tzen Chi Mochi founding store), tying it to the origin of Hualien's mochi trade rather than a later imitator. The shop still sells the traditional peanut, black sesame, and red bean lines that built its name, alongside newer flavors packaged for travelers passing through the city.
