Step into the Showa era—through sushi.
Ajigin in Oshiage offers handmade inari & nori-maki that taste like they’ve time-traveled from a simpler Japan. No frills, no seats—just tradition in a wooden box.

One of the BEST soba spots in Tokyo – and totally worth the wait!
At “寿々喜〜下町のそばや”, crispy katsudon and fragrant soba are served with heartwarming hospitality.
The juicy pork cutlet, the fluffy egg, and the delicate soba broth… Pure perfection.
No wonder people line up even before they open!

Kakujo Gyorui (角上魚類) is a local seafood market chain known for its freshness and quality.

Most of the fish and shellfish are delivered directly on the same day.
You can find a wide selection of seasonal seafood, including tuna, crab, scallops, and more.

What makes it unique is the service: you choose what you want, and the staff will clean, fillet, or prepare it for you on the spot.
This makes it easy to bring home and cook without any extra work.

It’s not a tourist spot, but a place where locals shop for serious seafood at reasonable prices.

Japan Bites Uncovered: Raw Egg on Rice? Only in Japan: Raw egg over rice = “tamago kake gohan.” In Japan, eggs are so fresh you can eat them raw. Overseas? Uh… don’t try this at home.

It takes skill to be a “slurping ramen eater”

[TK@TokyoFoods🇯🇵 @bites_of_tokyo]

Japan Bites Uncovered: Ramen Slurping is a Compliment: Slurping ramen isn’t rude in Japan. It cools the noodles, enhances flavor, and shows you’re enjoying it. In fact, silent ramen eaters are kinda suspicious.

@UnfoldingJapan Omg😂😂 do you think it was worth it?

Japan Bites Uncovered: Japan Has an Eel Day: Japan has a special day just for eating eel. “Doyo no ushi no hi” = midsummer eel day. Supposed to boost stamina in the heat. Science? Maybe. Delicious? Absolutely.
