Tsukiji Outer Market, Tokyo | Japanese Grandma’s Food Walk

Welcome to Grandma Takako’s Japanese Wisdom 👵
Join a Japanese grandma for a walk through Tsukiji Outer Market in Tokyo 🍣🐟

In the past, Tsukiji was home to one of Japan’s most famous wholesale fish markets.
The wholesale market has moved to Toyosu, but the outer market streets are still full of life:
small shops, street food, fresh seafood, and visitors from all over the world.

In this video, we:
• Walk from Tsukiji Station to the outer market streets
• Show the end-of-year crowds with many foreign visitors
• Look inside Tsukiji Uogashi and other fish markets with tuna, scallops, shrimp and more
• Stop by tamagoyaki shops like Marutake and Yamacho for sweet Japanese omelette
• Pass katsuobushi shops, grilled seafood stands, matcha stalls and isobe-yaki (rice dumpling snacks)
• Enjoy an omakase sushi lunch at a hidden restaurant called Shutoku
• Share a few practical tips about cash, cards, crowds and the best time to visit

Tsukiji Outer Market is one of the “kitchens of Japan” —
a place where you can really feel everyday food culture, not just sightseeing spots.

If you’re interested in Japan or planning to visit someday,
I hope this video gives you a small feeling of walking these streets together.
