Shimizu Fish Market

Seafood market

👍👍 If you want to get great seafood for a fraction of the price and super fresh definitely check out Shimizu fish market. While it’s not massive it has pretty much what we were looking for. There are 2 floors but the second floor was mostly closed. We went to まぐろ大国 located on the first floor and...

Yanagibashi Central Market

Seafood market

👍👍 I really don’t understand some of the lower reviews here this is a very interesting active central market!

Karoichi Fish Market

Seafood market

😐 We enjoyed the fresh crab at 1,500¥. The market also has two or three seafood restaurants which can be crowded and packed during lunch hours. Best to head there early for the fresh seafood which you can pack home as well. The best way to go is to take the tourist bus (1,000¥ for 3 days per pax) fro...

Himejimaedore Market

Seafood market

😐 テレビで観て行ったのは6月の終わり頃に初訪問。鱧の天ぷらを生まれて初めて美味いと思った！肉厚で、骨っぽさも全く無い！ハモ食べるならアナゴの方が良いと思ってたが、コレは全然違うもんやった。パックに入って売られてたのをお土産に買って帰った。お刺身定食をお昼に注文。鰆を生で初めて食べた。何て美味しいんだろ...
