Tokyo Guide : Kappabashi Dogugai

Categorised in: | Link of this article

043

Kappabashi Dogugai (合羽橋道具街) is the largest cooking tool district in Japan, located adjacent to the Asakusa area.

Established in the Taisho era (1912-1926), Kappabashi Dogugai developed as a wholesale district for cooking utensils, tableware, and other items for the restaurant industry, and is now lined with nearly 200 stores, making it a tourist attraction visited by people from Japan and abroad.

Not only can you buy chopsticks, knives, tea utensils, and other tableware for daily use at reasonable prices, but you can also find everything from the huge dimpled pots and hot water dispensers you see at ramen shops to food samples, signboards, and take-out containers familiar to restaurants.

As a wholesale district, many stores are closed on Saturdays, Sundays, and national holidays, and many close around 5:00 pm. Also, some stores accept cash only, so if you usually use cashless payment, it would be safer to have cash ready.
