The end of the year is the most exciting season for the market
The Toyosu Market moved from Tsukiji Market in 2016.
The end of the year is the most exciting and busiest time of the year for the seafood industry and markets.
This is because all Japanese people eat seafood during the year-end and New Year holidays.
Crab and tuna at the end of the year, shrimp tempura for New Year’s Eve soba, salmon roe and osechi at the beginning of the year are all seafood products.
Fishmongers sometimes make a month’s worth of sales in three days at the end of the year!
Anyone can enter the 4th floor of the 6th district of the Toyosu Market.
In the Tsukiji Market, people who had stores in the market as “Uogashi-Yokocho” and “Suijin-sama-dori” have moved their stores to the 4th floor of the 6th district (Marine Products Department) in the Toyosu Market.
Visitors can freely shop on the 4th floor of the 6th district of the Toyosu Market.
This time we will introduce the stores on the 4th floor.
Visitors can also enter here and enjoy a variety of shopping and rest.

This is Marutake, a very famous omelet shop in Tsukiji.

Toyosu Market also has miso! Miso store “Kuranoya”
Some stores sell miso by weight. Kuranoya” sells more than 10 kinds of miso by weight.

On this day, there were “Iyo Mugi Miso”, “Rice-Mugi Combination Miso”, “Mima Natural Two-Year-Old Miso”, etc. It was very interesting to see what kind of flavor they have. It will be very interesting to see what kind of flavors they have.

Just looking at them makes me want one! Masamoto” of professional kitchen knives
Masamoto” is the kitchen knife that chefs have always dreamed of using. They sell not only Japanese knives, but also Western-style knives, eel knives, shellfish peelers, and more.
Just looking at them makes you want to buy them because they look so cool. You need some tips to take care of them, but you can be proud just to have one of them!
