SATAKE SHOTENGAI
It is said to be the second oldest shopping street in Japan. It has a somewhat desolate atmosphere, which is rare in central Tokyo. However, there are some fashionable stores here and there. Look for cafes such as “229” and the meat shop “30-1 サンジュウ ヒク イチ (Sanju Hiku Ichi) “.

OKAZU YOKOCHO
You won’t find many stores where you can actually buy side dishes, but there are also miso and tsukudani (food boiled down in soy sauce) stores, giving the street a nostalgic old-fashioned impression. I recommend passing through here when strolling in Kuramae and Naka-Okachimachi.

YUWAERU
Even if you do not like brown rice, you will love the brown rice at Yuiwae. It looks more like rice cake than rice. We recommend the lunch menu, which includes a variety of side dishes. Sprinkle a generous amount of sesame salt next to the cash register.
