Inviting everyone to explore the delicious food at Tsukiji Fish Market.
This time, we've covered 6 shops, both savory and sweet, including famous matcha shops.
Matcha Stand Maruni
A famous matcha shop in Tsukiji. There was a long line, but the wait wasn't long. We ordered the Iced Matcha Latte Single Shot for 700 yen.
The matcha was smooth, fragrant, and very delicate. But if you're already a matcha lover, I recommend ordering the Double Shot. I personally feel it could be stronger.
Tsukiji Iroha
This shop sells Daifuku. I've seen it in reviews. I happened to come across this and ordered 3 daifuku for 1,500 yen. The dough has many flavors to choose from. The dough is soft and chewy, but I was a bit disappointed with the strawberries. They didn't feel very juicy, maybe because it was the time I went. We went in late May. It would have been even better if the strawberries were juicier. Besides daifuku, they also sell fruit-based dishes.
Marukita
We stopped by this restaurant because of the smell. They were grilling tantalizingly right in front of the restaurant. The aroma was amazing, so inviting. This restaurant sells grilled seafood, sashimi, and rice bowls. We ordered:
Salmon sashimi for 500 yen. It was fresh, but it felt like regular salmon.
Uni for 1,500 yen. It was mouthwatering. It was so fresh, tender, and creamy. You didn't even need to dip it in sauce. It was so good.
Grilled Hotate (Clam) for 1,500 yen. The aroma made us stop. These large, fresh, and bouncy clams were grilled to perfection. They were even seared to enhance the aroma. It was the best! If you come here, you should definitely order this.
Grilled Oysters (Skewer) for 1,200 yen. I think they were scallops. They were so big I wasn't even sure if they were real. But all I know is that everything here is fresh. The grilled onions are a bit drier than the grilled hotate, but they have a more intense burnt aroma. It's a matter of personal preference, but I like both. I can't choose.
Creamia
A must-try ice cream for 600 yen. It's absolutely delicious! The shop is in a building, but you can see the sign out front. The ice cream is smooth, soft, and incredibly milky. It's not too sweet, with a creamy, milky, and rich flavor. The cookie cone is also amazing, with a rich, milky flavor. I don't usually like cones, but when I saw this cookie cone, I wanted to order more.
Tsukiji Ushitake
This skewered beef restaurant offers a wide selection of meats. They also have beef burgers and uni. I ordered the skewered beef for 2,000 yen. Despite its large size, it was incredibly tender. It wasn't tough at all, and it was perfectly juicy. Paired with wasabi, it was absolutely amazing.
Makuroya Kurogin
Another famous restaurant in Tsukiji. They only serve tuna. They also have sushi and sashimi. The chef slices the fish right in front of you. It was a place I almost missed because there was such a long line of people waiting. But on the way back, I happened to pass by. There was no one waiting and there was still some tuna left, so I ordered it right away. I ordered the tuna sashimi for 5,000 yen. It came in three portions: O-toro (very fatty), Chu-toro (medium fatty), and Akami (lean). I can honestly say that this was the most delicious tuna I've ever had. The meat was so tender and melted in my mouth. I loved it so much.
