You will be roaming the main avenues of the Tsukiji Outer Fish Market, exploring the ingredients that compose the Japanese cuisine from tea to dashi, from fish cakes to sushi eggs omelettes and more.

At TSUKIJI, we will focus on exploring Japanese cuisine from the market perceptive, take a glimpse of Japanese religion from a market aspect, learn what the Tsukiji market was for the Edo people, historically & politically.
