Nishiki Market started in 1310 as a fish market in Kyoto, but has evolved into a shopping street with over 100 stores, and is now one of the best places to try Kyoto street food! Today, Nishiki Market is considered the “Kitchen of Kyoto” and offers a range of seafood, sweets, pickles, tea, and more.

Shizuka meets up with Kevin, a food tour guide in Kyoto, for an insightful stroll around Nishiki Market, tasting a variety of Kyoto street food and chatting about local specialties like tsukemono pickles and yuba (a type of “tofu skin”). Kevin talks about the history of Nishiki Market and even gives some tips about how to use yuba in home cooking.
