Why You Should Visit

Kyoto Takashimaya's annual autumn Hokkaido fair, now in its 65th year, fills the 7th-floor halls with food from Japan's northern island. This year's themes are Biei sweetcorn, scallops, azuki beans and milk, with stalls cooking corn tempura, corn apple pie and scallop croquettes on the spot. You can sit down for sushi, seafood bowls and ramen (Ebisoba Ichigen's prawn-miso ramen until 20 Oct, Rishiri Ramen Miraku from 21 Oct), or pick up classic gifts from LeTAO and Rokkatei. Some stalls change after the first week, and a life-size balloon of a Banei draught horse from Tokachi stands on the roof. The store sits on the Shijo-Kawaramachi crossing with a direct underground link to Kyoto-kawaramachi Station, so it slots easily into a day in Gion or Nishiki Market.
