http://FXcuisine.com/default.asp?Display=36This 400-year-old covered food market in Kyoto is one of the best I've ever visited. en-usThu, 30 Apr 2026 16:12:14 GMTFXcuisine.com5 Yes winter it was! Good tips thanks.http://FXcuisine.com/default.asp?Display=36Thu, 10 Mar 2016 12:27:56 GMT Wonderful photos.  The people looks bundled up so I assume that you were there in winter.  I think that is the best time to go, especially the last few days in December when people are stocking up on ingredients and prepared dishes for osechi ryori, the special New Year"s foods that are eaten over the first few days of January.  The market is especially crowded and there is a wonderful energy in the air.  If you go back I recommend stopping off at Inoda Coffee after the market. It is nearby, and they make the best cup of coffee in Kyoto, elegantly served by waiters in white jackets.  Serious coffee!http://FXcuisine.com/default.asp?Display=36Sun, 13 May 2012 19:58:38 GMT nice photos! i went to these markets last year but couldn"t remember the name of them, so i did a search and your page came up. i have an almost identical photo of the lady selling the eggs. she"s even wearing the same top!http://FXcuisine.com/default.asp?Display=36Sun, 28 Jun 2009 12:56:55 GMT Sets, I was back in this market last month, it really is one of the (many) great sights of Japan, at least to me!http://FXcuisine.com/default.asp?Display=36Tue, 17 Feb 2009 21:38:44 GMT WOW -- I worked in one of those booths for a short time some years ago.http://FXcuisine.com/default.asp?Display=36Sat, 24 Jan 2009 03:41:54 GMT Mario thanks for visiting and glad my little article  revived some memories of what must have been like an exciting part of your life! I do not know this product unfortunately, but believe there are several Japanese food stores with online stores, perhaps you can find it there. Sorry I can"t help more!http://FXcuisine.com/default.asp?Display=36Mon, 14 Apr 2008 16:38:31 GMT I truly enjoyed your article & the photos really seem to express the constant movement that I remember from 26 years ago. I wonder if you could recomend any online stores where I could buy a can or cans of (Yours lemon flavored powder).I haven"t been able to find it in the US, I"ve looked for years. It was so common in japan.
