Browse Omicho Market
Musashigatsuji, Japan

Omicho's covered lanes bring together fishmongers, produce stalls and small places to eat in the centre of Kanazawa. Go in the morning to see the market at work, then choose a seafood rice bowl or a few snacks from businesses that provide eating space. Seasonal fish and vegetables offer a useful introduction to the region's cooking. It is still a working market, so leave room for shoppers and deliveries and expect queues at popular lunch counters.
