Why You Should Visit
For five days the B2 food floor of Hankyu Umeda Main Store turns into a marché of seasonal produce and artisan foods from around Japan. September's theme is autumn flavors: Shine Muscat grapes from Okayama, Ichibanboshi mandarins from Mie, Tosa Hachikin free-range chicken from Kochi, Fukutaro's mentaiko baguette from Fukuoka and Nishiri's Kyoto-pickle sushi. A live bluefin tuna cutting show runs on Sep 19, and a direct-from-Akashi fish market on Sep 18. Producers staff the stalls, and being inside a department store it's an easy stop whatever the weather.
