Best time to visit
Early morning on weekdays, before 9:00, to catch the freshest selection and smaller crowds. Avoid weekends and late afternoons when stalls close and tourist crowds swell.
Budget tips
Market entry is free; individual stalls charge for food, samples, and knife shops. Bring cash, share small plates to save money, and choose morning set menus for better value.

About
Fakta singkat: Aroma ikan segar dan asap panggangan memenuhi lorong-lorong sempit, membuat setiap kunjungan terasa seperti festival kuliner mini. Bayangkan berkeliling antara ratusan lapak yang menjual tuna sashimi, bumbu lokal, dan pisau dapur tradisional, seringkali dengan penjual yang memberi sampel jadi kamu bisa makan sambil berjalan.
Sorotan: Bayangkan lorong sempit dengan lebih dari 400 toko dan restoran, di mana suara pisau yanagiba mengiris es dan aroma acar jahe serta sup dashi menyatu dengan bau laut yang asin. Setiap pagi ada demonstrasi pemotongan maguro yang memperlihatkan tuna seberat sampai 200 kilogram, penonton bisa melihat irisan daging merah tua mengkilap dipotong dalam hitungan menit oleh tukang potong berpengalaman dari toko Aritsugu.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes; alleys are narrow and involve standing while eating.
- Watch for delivery carts and bicycles, step to the side when they pass.
- Ask before photographing vendors or food close up, many are happy but some prefer no photos.
- Skip long sit-down sushi restaurants and try standing counters or small stalls for faster, often cheaper, fresh sushi.
