I find it a real shame that they replaced Tsukiji. I found it very charming. The new market is a bit sterile in comparison.

- SlowRobotAhead 7y agoWe spent a long layover in Tsukiji. Loved it! Had the best sushi of my life in a literal hole in the wall at 2am. Very charming indeed.
- lainga 7y agoI should clarify that the holes in the wall (outer market) are still there. You may still visit them. But you were also able sometimes to enter the inner market, the big curved warehouse, where the actual fish market is, and that has been moved to Toyosu.
- tempsy 7y agoNo offense but probably a placebo effect? Sushi is fine there but the restaurants were always a bit of a tourist trap. Best sushi in the city is not there.
- mths 7y agoI won't argue where the "best" sushi is, but have you tried shutoku honten? It's pretty great.
- SlowRobotAhead 7y agoDon’t think so, it was flat out just great without any pretentious nonsense. Never had fish that fresh. Hard to find that combo in the USA, let alone on an alley at 2am.
