Thanks for visiting the Mitsuwa Marketplace! This place is very close to my heart and the last time I visited there was 30 years ago with my mom when it was a YAOHAN supermarket complex. It was one of the first large Japanese supermarkets in the TriState area at the time and It looks almost the same but the layout is similar to the Mitsuwa Torrance, California branch. Glad to see the store is still in great shape and they kept the quality of the food and restaurants high and we hope you will get a chance to show us the other parts of the complex on your next visit. Thank you and we look forward to seeing your next video! Warmest regards from your fans in Tokyo.

Little history of Edgewater it use to be a dump an industrial town filled with pipelines. Now its filled with luxury residential towers and shopping. I use to work in Edgewater and it has great views of the city. Also a container filled with canaries or parrots now make it their home and survive the winter.

Love Mitsuwa!! Used to go there all the time when I lived nearby. And I’ve never seen it that empty- on Saturdays it used to be packed wall to wall. Maybe this was a weekday morning? They used to have an awesome Japanese bookstore just across from it - and can’t forget Auto Freak! Is that still there?

There are other shops he didnt mention. Go out the doors by the ramen place and there are more stores. Kinokunya which is a book store, stocks odds and ends, stationary, action figures, plushies and movies to rent. Next to that is Little Tokyo, which has more odds and ends, clothing, action figures, utensil and kitchen ware. They even sell kimonos. Continue your way out to the right and there is a store Daiso which sells general household/ other odds and ends. There are even more stores but I have never visited them to give an accurate review or say what they have.

Those onigiri look fresher than the ones I’ve seen at the Mitsuwa I’ve been to. There they’re packaged loosely in plastic cartons so the nori is all soggy and the rice is just a little dried out depending on how long it’s been out since the package isn’t sealed. Also your Mitsuwa is much bigger than the ones I’ve been too. Jealous of the size and variety of the food court.

Mitsuwa is not as good as it used to be 10 years ago. It used to be much more Japanese, better stuff, more events, and lots of unique items. Today it is not much better than Hmart or nearby Asian grocers. I miss all the live festivals and real Japanese products.
