Why is it called Ni-neizaka?
1. It is said that this name was given when the slope was built in the 2nd year of Datong (807 AD).
2. The theory that it came to be called Niningzaka because it is under Sanneizaka.
So why Sanneizaka?
It is a famous story that Toyotomi Hideyoshi's right wife (northern political office) "Nene" lived in Kodaiji. It is said that the name came from the fact that "Nene" went up the slope to visit Kiyomizu-dera Temple in memory of the birth of a child.
If you fall on Niningzaka, you will die within two years?!
This slope has been around for a long time, but this name became the street name because it means the slope in front of Sanen-zaka.
The legend that "if you stumble and fall here, you will die within two years" seems to have been handed down as a warning phrase "Be careful on the stone steps."
According to a certain diary, "In the eighth year of the Horeki era (1758), a person named Masuya Kihei, with the permission of the government, made it a pioneer house." Since then, this area has been called Masuyacho. It is the current house in the early Taisho period and is designated as a national townscape preservation area.

In a small workshop, a fragrant caramel was born. The first one was the "No.1" vanilla flavor.
In honor of the caramel numbered for each flavor, the restaurant was named "NUMBER SUGAR".
Then, in 2013, it opened in a corner of Omotesando.
They use carefully selected natural ingredients and do not use any extraneous ingredients such as flavorings, colorings, or acidulants.
They pay attention to the amount of heat, the timing of removing from the heat, and the weather, and I carefully face the pot and make it by hand, one grain at a time.
