When you hear "Ginza" in Tokyo, what would you come into your mind?
"One of the big towns", "Gourgeous", "Expensive", "Major Brand shops", "Mistukoshi department store".
When you go to Ginza, you will see "Wako" building in the main street.
It is the symbol as "expensive" shop in Ginza. Not only Wako but also other departments store in Ginza,
you have an opportunity to see and view some gourgeous goods in GInza. It is similar to "Fifthe Avenue".
However, if you walk and look around carefully, you will find some "local" goods that we did not buy as long as we didn't go to the area.
I would like to introduce some shops which sells its own "local" products caltivated and made in "local area" in Japan such as Hokkaido pref., Okinawa pref. and so on.
Hokkaido(北海道)
Salmon fish is being sold in this shop at this time. It is so tasty. Not only that but also other sea food and vegitables
are being sold in this shop.
Okinawa is proud of selling sea weed so called "Mozuku".
If you mix it with Japanese vinegar and eat it, you can see the light(Aha moment!!)
Heathly Black Suger is being also sold in this shop.
Kochi(高知) in Shikoku island(四国)
PONZU sauce is really needed when you eat Japanese NABE food above.
The unique point is that Japanese sour orange so call "Yuzu"柚子 fruit is in this sauce.
I am sure you will love it.
I just introduced three shops in this blog. There are other local product antenna shops in Ginza area.
Please use this following website map to find those shops (Japanese webiste only Sorry) .

If you are sick and tired of Ginza, I am sure that you will be able to find new "Ginza"
It will inspire you.
