Tororo from Chojiya in Mariko-shuku was depicted in the comic picaresque novel Tokaidochu Hizakurige (Going Tokaido Shank's Mare), as well as The Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido, the famous series of ukiyo-e woodblock prints by Utagawa Hiroshige. Yaji and Kita get caught up in a marital spat and didn’t get to eat tororo, but you can take Tororo Imo Yokan (grated yam sweet bean jelly) home with you. The set of two is perfect for a two-person trip.
