On the opening day of Tsukiji, "Yamacho-san", which has a small shop in a corner of the rest area facing "Nami-dori", which is always crowded with many people, is popular with kushishi egg-yaki ("Kushitama").
It is a stand-up gourmet that we recommend during the walk around Tsukiji Outer Market. It's just the right size to eat while walking, and you can choose something warm and cold, as well as sweet and less sweet.
The price is 100 yen per skew. Outside Tsukiji, a fierce battlefield for egg-yaki, the only egg-yaki that is sold with reasonable skewers is here "Yamacho-san". By all means, please.
I would like to introduce some of my favorite food.
Did you know that Tsukiji is not called a sea bream-yaki shop, but called a tuna-yaki shop?
Fresh fish sea bream and tuna are also traded in the market, but there is only one tuna grill shop in the out-of-office market without bream grilling.
The tuna-yaki "Sanokiya" has a small shop on the left immediately after entering the first alley from Harumi-dori St. side. There is a cute signboard at the frontage of the store, about one frontage, so you can find it immediately.
"Sanokiya"'s tuna grille accurately expresses the bulge of the fuselage, which is a characteristic of tuna, and the swelling stomach is filled with plenty of ingredients "Anko". The raw material of the "Anko" is Tokachi red beans, and the red beans use the finest variety called "Toyoho".
There are two types of tuna grilling, "hon tuna" and "medium toro". It is said that the stomach of this tuna contains Kokura Ann, and the Nakatoro contains Kokura Ann and "Anzu". The finished tuna grill has wings like a dumpling, and the surface crisp and inside can enjoy the texture of the fluffy. By the way, "hon tuna" is 150 yen. "Nakatoro" costs a little more than 180 yen.
Outside Tsukiji, you can sample at various shops, but we recommend "Ichikushi Tamagoyaki" and "Tunayaki" for tasting.
