Eating and shopping in Ameyoko: thinking about what to carry home

Separate outings built around favourite meals

One day included seafood rice, yakitori and beer, followed by so many souvenirs that a bag tore. Another account moves from Bunraku’s yakitori to shopping in Ikebukuro and sweets in Yurakucho. They are different outings, not one food-walk itinerary.

What you buy, and how long you carry it

A further account records buying strawberries and a tin container in Ameyoko before enjoying seafood monja at Moheji. Alongside choosing a meal, consider what you will buy and how long it stays with you.

For your own outing, arranging the shopping order and a bag for purchases can help you plan the stops after choosing your food priorities.
