Gourmet Foods
Curry
Hours depend on the individual shops
Jimbocho is well-known among locals as a popular place for delicious Japanese curry. It has an abundance of curry restaurants in addition to its many bookstores and cafes. While Japanese curry has its roots in Indian curry, it has developed over time to have a more mild and sweet taste and is now a unique cuisine of its own. Japanese curry is also a great souvenir as it can be bought in boxes at the supermarket. You can also enjoy delicious curry at SAKURA CAFE in all the Sakura Hotels.
Cafe
Hours depend on the individual shops
Jimbocho is known for being an area of business and office workers, but it has many delicious and atmospheric cafes. Because Jimbocho is famous for books, you can even visit specialty reading cafes, and even cafes with board games. SAKURA CAFE, found at all Sakura Hotels in Tokyo, is one of the great places to hang out, relax, eat and drink.
Japanese sweets
At stations around Tokyo, there are mobile stalls that sell a variety of goods including fresh produce, Japanese street foods, and Japanese sweets such as mochi and daifuku. These stalls are not well-known among tourists but are a must-try when visiting Tokyo.
