Attendees can look forward to top-selling items like the boiled Japanese octopus from Maru Roku Sato Suisan, renowned for its excellent quality. Additionally, the event will feature a flavorful array of octopus products from Kaneishi Shoten, known for their unique vinegar-marinated octopus offerings, lovingly crafted with a special blend of vinegar and apple juice.

Furthermore, visitors can indulge in the popular Fukushima B-grade gourmet dish, Nami-e Yakisoba, characterized by its thick noodles and rich sauce, proudly served by Asahiya. Pair your meal with delicious miso-marinated cream cheese from Sugano Tsukemono Foods, an ideal accompaniment to wine or sake.

As part of the event, local favorites, such as various types of satsuma-age (Japanese fish cakes) from Iwashita Shoten, will be available for tasting. These delectable items can be enjoyed in multiple ways, whether straight from the package, grilled, or included in hot pot dishes.
