The quality of the beef tongue is undeniably the best in comparison with other regions of Japan. If have an opportunity to visit Sendai, do not forget to try it!
Gulf of Sendai is a treasure trove of seafood. Here in Sendai, even luxury foods such as oysters, shellfish, sea urchins and shrimps are sold at reasonably affordable prices.
All of these foods can be seen and purchased at the 'Sendai Asaichi' (morning market), located close to Sendai station (market open during the day). When you take a look at all of the fresh fish for sale you will surely start to get hungry! For those who miss out on taking some fresh seafood home, definitely sample some sushi at the sushi restaurants downtown!
There is a long history when it comes to local sake of Sendai. The high quality rice and purified water used ensures the sake brewed is of the highest standard. Sample some of the affordable sakes available for sale in local stores and compare the different flavors. Even those who do not like rice will enjoy the tastiness of the local sake!
The history of Japanese-style confectionery in Sendai is longer than 300 years. The simple taste comes from the brown sugar and rice which are the main ingredients. Each handmade sweet is carefully and painstakingly produced by a skilled craftsman.
Therefore, it takes at least 3 days to prepare the sweets. You will be able to feel the spirit of Japan when you taste these sweets created with both the skill and affection of this confectioner.
