Indulging Your Inner Gourmand in Japantown, San Francisco
For those occasions when you have a yen for Japanese food and a zest for culinary adventure, consider Nijiya Market in San Francisco’s Japantown Center. A cultural excursion into this authentic Asian market could land you such prize items as: bamboo charcoal (for purifying your drinking water naturally), green tea with matcha powder (the authentic stuff), boiled octopus tentacle (for real), or virtually any size, color, shape and consistency of tofu that you can imagine. If you’re not all that adventurous, stick to the pre-packaged but quite fresh sushi takeout. Nijiya Market harbors so many hidden treasures that it’s not hard to spend hours here tussling with the many other neighborhood shoppers. You may have to temporarily abandon your predilection for personal space, but it will be well worth the gourmet bounty you ultimately score.
