Fresh fish on sale

Interesting looking tomatoes. It is pretty rare to see variety tomatoes in Japan.

Bought skewed fried tuna. It is crispy and delicious!

Wide range selection of Oden(fish cake) and Tempura(fried food).

Chicken wing and croquette. This place is full of energy!

Hand-made tofu shop. Ganmodoki (round-shape fried mashed tofu with carrot, kelp, etc in it) is on sale.

I visited Sunamachi Ginza's shopping street located at Kitasuna, Koto-ku, Tokyo Prefecture. This shopping street won 3rd place of the most wanted to visit shopping street from Japan Economic Newspaper on February 5th, 2005. Recently, it is also selected for shooting TV Tokyo drama [The Lonely Gourmet] where you could actually see the main character was eating food inside of the shop.
