The 1 best cheap eats in Wajima

When I came here, out of the entire street, there were only 5 shops that was open. I don't know why the shops were not open at that time. (I came here on a Friday) I found this shop that was selling a variety of food, from beef sushi to pizzas. I ended up having the pork bun and it was good in my opinion. PS - I wouldn't recommend eating on the street, as there are hawks watching over and they will snatch your food in a blink of an eye. Just eat in a closed area.

My family and I joined the Wajima Go day trip through Hokutetsu. Wajima Morning Market is our first stop. It is very unique and interesting. Most of the vendors sell processed seafood and products rather than fresh food. You will notice there’s a lot of females running the business. The tour guide told us you don’t usually get to negotiate with the price, but it’s better (or okay) to ask for “extras.” For example, you pay ¥1000 for seaweed. You can ask “can I also have X for free”? Hope you get good deals here 😀

A small shopping street full of traditional Japanese eateries and fish flakes. Most of the local produce are sold here. People were very friendly and greeted me with smile

This morning market would close by 12 noon. Car parking facilities were available two streets away at the Asaichi Parking lot at a cost. Tourists were welcome and phablets would be given by local authorities once the car was parked. The staff would ensure the travelers know the way to the market. They were very friendly. At the market, there were numerous shops and stalls selling bags, chopsticks, accessories, seafood, vegetables, pottery items, folk crafts, lacquerware ... The vendors were mainly females. There was a charcoal corner in the rest area where buyers were free to use to grill any seafood purchased and eat it right away. Very funny experience.

Small little street with old style stores. Good to check out but not worth dying over for. Grab lunch nearby but also take note of the closing time which is midday. The stores do start picking up at around 11.30 though.

Obviously fewer sellers were on d street in a cold winter Tuesday morning but those unties were full of energy and fun to talk to. You can or they will bargain with you. There's a BBQ pit (Japanese style) located in approx d centre of d street where you can charcoal grill your purchased fish. We had 3 small pieces of famous Nodoguro and blowfish and one large piece of Hachime at 1500yen - all sun-dried and flavoured. Great deal! You can also buy hot Japanese sake at 100yen to go with d bbq.

in the winter quite empty. two sellers tried to bargain, strange in japan.
