My visit to the knife shop gave me a chance to visit the famous Tsukiji neighborhood. I didn't go into the market proper but the streets in the neighborhood offer a wide range of vendors. Many of the people on the streets are foreigners; the vendors all seem to be comfortable dealing in English. All sorts of foodstuffs are available. Of course, visiting markets while traveling leads to frustration since I don't have a kitchen in Tokyo. I didn't grab a photo but omelet-on-a-stick was a popular snack. I bought a small bag of dried pineapple for my flight back. And for immediate sustenance I bought one of these pork buns. The bun itself was juicy and tasty. The plate came with a tiny dab of yellow mustard that had a great punch.
My thoughts on the Atlanta food scene, with occasional forays into the world beyond. We talk about both restaurant reviews and recipes.
