This
is
heaven
😍
If
you
are
after
Japanese
made
kitchen/
cooking/
baking
products
this
is
the
place.
Look
for
the
Kappabashi
street
sign
(in
Japanese)
with
yellow
and
green
duck
along
the
road
that
mark
the
area.
Even
if
you
just
want
to
look
around,
come
at
least
before
3pm
as
some
shops
closed
as
early
as
4.30pm,
only
a
couple
open
until
6pm.
Shops
open
at
around
9am-11am
ish.
Many
closes
on
Sunday
but
that
kinda
reduces
the
choice
fatigue
plus
eliminates
the
small
ones
as
more
great
sellers
and
big
shops
are
still
open.
If
you
are
really
serious
about
baking
or
cooking,
come
after
lunch
or
even
dedicate
an
entire
day.
Most
shop
let
you
browse
around,
touch
the
products
and
take
pictures.
But
be
careful
not
to
break
things
as
they
might
as
you
to
pay
for
it.
Most
if
not
all
shops
have
very
small
aisles,
it
won’t
fit
prams
or
wheelchairs.
Not
much
stairs
around
but
a
step
or
two
and
some
stores
have
multiple
floors.
Hence
this
place
is
only
suitable
for
adults,
as
kids
won’t
be
interested
and
they
might
touch
or
break
things.
let
your
partner
take
the
children
somewhere
and
come
to
this
heaven
😉
Mainly
there
are
thee
kind
of
shops:
1.
tax
free
shop
inside
the
shop
itself
where
they
will
do
the
tax
deduction
and
you
need
to
spend
5000yen
inside
that
shop.
(Mostly
bigger
and
more
modern
shops)
2.
Shop
that
participates
in
the
tax
free
scheme
in
Kappabashi
area.
There
is
a
tax
refund
counter
opens
until
6pm
and
they
have
the
list
of
which
shop
participates
in
the
tax
free
scheme-
this
means
you
don’t
have
to
buy
5000yen
in
one
shop
and
you
can
go
to
the
tax
refund
counter
once
you
finished
shopping
and
buy
over
5000yen
from
all
participating
shops
(see
pic
for
list)
and
see
store
stickers
or
you
can
ask
the
shop
before
buying.
(Medium-big
old
school
shops)
3.
Shops
that
don’t
do
neither.
In
saying
that,
some
non
tax
free
shops
sometimes
sell
the
same
items
with
better
prices.
And
many
items
here
aren’t
cheaper
than
buying
from
tourist
spots.
Do
some
research
and
compare
with
amazon
jp
to
get
better
deals.
