the scary/sad part of family businesses (especially ones that are engrained in tradition and heritage) is that it only takes one person for it to all end.

[@dancingcarapace]

Scary and sad possibly, but there’s also a badass raw energy in knowing that you hold you family’s cuter in your hands. You could look you parents in the eye and say “This bloodline dies with me”

If you live anywhere near Los Angeles, you really owe it to yourself to go out there and try it.

I actually was in the middle of eating one of those when I came across this video. And obviously not that I'd tell anyone how to live their life, but I do hope Korey decides to take over the family business when/if Brian decides to retire.

Family business can be both a blessing and a curse. You will always have the stability and don’t ever have to think how to make ends meet. At the same time, if you have a gift that goes outside the realms of the family business (specially being from a japanese family) and one wishes to pursue that aspiration then a lot of drama will ensue.

[@recoil53]

Well you don't necessarily have stability - you have to change with the times or die like the businesses around your's did. Change too much and too fast and people complain, you always have to thread that needle. However in Japan businesses have been handed down outside the family, like in the bladesmithing business. Technically the new person is 'adapted' and becomes the next generation owner. But yeah, no freedom to be you.

[@coluurs5660]

g e o idk about stability part but yeah I agree, all it takes for the business to end is someone along the family line that doesn’t want to take over the business, which it is his choice

[@Wra8h]

I think the OP means there's always something to fall back to. Mochi isn't going away any time soon so you won't starve and be out of job if you have this business. You won't necessarily have a successful one that's stable without a lot of effort -and even then that's not granted-, that's for sure.

Exactly...even in India its the same...

There's also the percent that's like, "Hey I've been there before!"

[@sicilianjiu-jitsu2984]

So glad to see the new generation will be taking over this tradition. That is no easy task. However it is worth it.

Been there once and the mochi are really interesting. I didn't love all of the flavors that I bought but I truly appreciate the art and work behind it.

[@dorrriiii]

I love going here! I remember when my Japanese Summer school went to go and make some with Mr. Brian. He’s so nice just like in here. And the mochi is delicious! It’s perfect. The softness, sweetness, tastiness, and the chewiness! If you ever in LA go and have a taste!!

"Has heart made if mochi" it's so wholesome!

[@HoanThienLD]

I always drop by Fugetsu-Do every time I visit Little Tokyo. Their mochi hits the spot every freaking time. Really recommend this shop to everyone coming to LA.

Such an artful confection. ❤ For myself, it's a texture I don't care for. The rest of the family can't get enough. 😁

The nation’s father 💖 the shop owner is such a kind person

[@theblackdeath8933]

He looks like a japanese mochi making super Mario lol

[@Valariel]

I've been to this shop multiple times. The mochi is great! My favorite is the chocolate mochi.

[@liberatorkramit]

This is awesome to see. I don’t care where you are in the world. People need to keep making stuff with their hands. Believe it or not you can always tell the difference, especially in food stuffs.

[@Sunnybias]

The owner has an amazing voice and accent!! I could listen to him talk all day 🙌🏻✨✨

Mochi is basically play dough that you can eat. If you've ever had it, it'll remind you as eating Elmer's glue as a 5 year old.

[@awsome14619]

They deliver!

[@ahemaaa5339]

Watching while I'm eating some of their mochi
