Top 10 Japanese Street Food Tour in Kyoto Japan. Food Guide in Nishiki Market and Gion Area, walking street food tour to my top 10 favorite street food spots. Nishiki Market is known as Kyoto’s kitchen and it’s been around for 400 years. And one of the main reasons why Nishiki Market opened up here in Kyoto is because this very spot run clean and cold groundwater which was used a refrigeration system by shop owners back in the day. Now there about 129 stores crammed in this narrow 400 meter market and it’s equally crowded with locals and tourists alike. Many Japan tourists and Japan travelers are looking for the best food market spots at Nishki and I cover some of the best shops We try the famous Tako Tamago which is an Octopus with a quail egg inside. We also try Tamagoyaki at Kai, which is a fluffy and elegant tasting Dashimaki Tamago made only with their High-end Kyoto eggs. Dashimaki Tamago is a type of Tamagoyaki but uses a Dashi soup and is usually not sweet. Also on the menu for this Kyoto Street Food tour are Oysters, Fishcakes, Grilled Fish, Cheese Tart, Fried Chicken Karaage, Black Ramen and Melon Pan Ice Cream.

This is Japan Food Travel Guide for Japan tourists and and Kyoto travelers. So many things to see and eat in Kyoto, but I wanted to give everyone a Kyoto Street food guide on Things to do in Kyoto and where to eat in Kyoto.

Nishiki Market (錦市場 Nishiki Ichiba) (literally “brocade market”) is a marketplace in downtown Kyoto, located on a road one block north and parallel to Shijō Street (四条通 Shijō-dōri) and west of Teramachi Street (寺町通 Teramachi-dōri). Rich with history and tradition, the market is renowned as the place to obtain many of Kyoto’s famous foods and goods.

Gion is Kyoto’s geisha district, with hostesses in colorful kimonos often sighted on the wooden Tatsumi Bridge, or amid upscale Japanese restaurants and boutiques on Hanamikoji Street.

  1. Gosh I gosh hungry watching u guys eat!!🤣🤣🤤🤤🤤 Kyoto street food r on my Bucket list!! Thank you for the recommendation!

  2. hey paulo I complete japanese n5 laguage course. please sir have you find a job for me please sir. do me a favour. I am poor. I do any work In japan. please sir. I am from bangladesh.

  3. My mom will die for number four she loves oysters one day I will go to Japan
    And buy her one of these TvT

  4. I know it's normal to slurp your food in Japan but I wish you wouldn't in these videos. Please consider those who watch your videos who have misophonia (sound sensitivity) where noises like that can trigger extreme emotional distress.

  5. As always, everything looks so good!!! If you can, why don't you do a late-night vlog of what to eat after a night of drinking or late-night cravings?

  6. I loved this video! The food just looks so good. I couldn’t remember what the name of the pasta and ice cream was from a long time ago and there it was. The last item on your menu. You seem to cover everything in your videos. One last thing. I just introduced your videos to my 8 yr old granddaughter Jordy and now she would rather watch your food videos than have a bedtime story! So keep up the good work! You guys are Jordy fans for sure. Jean from Arizona 🌻🌞🐍🌴🌵🦎🦂⛰

  7. Having tried Ramen in over 2 dozen countries, I have to say that I consider Gogyo's burned Miso ramen to be the best I've ever had. Absolutely exquisite

  8. If you could it would be nice to tell us if the stores have vegetarian options 🥺 btw looove your videos ❣️

  9. the only thing i do not like about this video is that i am not there to eat everything 🙁

  10. Omg..he is eating fish and talking about the fish eggs..yakkkk!
    How can anybody eat fish eggs..

  11. The scenery of Nishiki Market has also changed a little.
    As a local, I'd like to recommend Fuka. It's a fu shop, and their Taiyaki, made by baking soft Nama- fu. Fu is gluten cakes.
    Taitaki is so excellent. It's hard to tell, so come back again!

  12. Hi Paolo
    That’s a great selection of different dishes and all look lovely. Thank you!
    I heard in most restaurants they only speak Japanese. Was that the case in Nishiki market or is it more tourists there? We’re planning to go this summer😃yay

  13. I love 💕 matcha 🍵🍀🍀🍀🍀🍵🍵🍵🍵🍀I love matcha flavor anything especially with mochi and in boba 🧋 drink and honeydew 🍈 flavor also delicious 🤤🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍈🍈🍈🍈🍈🍈🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗💕💕💕💕💕

  14. I really like melon pan, but in Germany we don't have it. In the city Düsseldorf, there are shops, but that one you are eating in the video is a lot bigger and looks really fresh. =D I am jealous right now =D and I feel like, I only could eat melon pan in Japan, if I ever get there. I am not able to eat soy, I love it, but my body doesn't play along, and my stomach gets sick and all. =D So there aren't many options =D
