Omicho Market
近江町市場36°34′ N 136°39′ EMarket
Omicho Market suits food lovers who want Sea of Japan seafood for breakfast or lunch in central Kanazawa, and its trade-off is queues at the best-known rice-bowl counters, worst in crab season.
What to order
- Kaisendon (seafood over rice)
- Crab in November
Omicho has been Kanazawa's kitchen since the Edo period, more than 300 years, and today it holds over 170 shops. Fishmongers sit beside greengrocers, and the refurbished Omicho Ichibakan building holds a number of popular restaurants. Crab and yellowtail season peaks around November, when the market is at its busiest.
The market's general hours are 9:00 to 16:00, though each shop sets its own. The Musashigatsuji Omicho Market bus stop on the Loop Bus is a minute away.
