The Popular Katsuura Morning Market in Chiba Prefecture
The Katsuura Morning Market is a morning market in Katsuura city, Chiba prefecture, in Japan's Kanto Region.
Along with the Wajima Morning Market of Ishikawa prefecture and the Hida-Takayama Miyagawa Morning Market of Gifu prefecture, it is known as one of the 3 biggest morning markets in Japan.
The Katsuura Morning Market has a long history dating back 400 years.
It's said that the market started in 1591 when the Katsuura castle lord, Yasutada Uemura opened the place as a location for exchanging agricultural and marine/seafood products. In November of 1987, the location was moved to its present location.
In 1996 and 2010, the “National Morning Market Summit” was held.
The Katsuura Morning Market is open every morning from 6:00 AM-11:00 AM except for New Years day (January 1st) and Wednesdays.
It is held at Shimohoncho Asaichi Street during the first half of the month and on Nakahoncho Asaichi Street during the second half of the month.
There are about 60 to 80 stalls selling marine products landed at Katsuura Port, which catches the second largest amount of marine products in Chiba Prefecture, as well as fresh vegetables and local gourmet foods.
You can see the various stalls that are lined up at the Katsuura Morning Market from 0:04 in the video.
The Katsuura Morning Market is close to a fishing port, so the seafood products are especially popular.
You can buy fresh seafood such as skipjack tuna (the largest amount in the country is unloaded in the nearby port), horned turbans, and abalone here.
Recommended Restaurants and Shops at the Katsuura Morning Market
There are shops that sell seasonal products, specialty okowa (sticky rice), and other various products at the Katsuura Morning Market.
A popular food at the Katsuura Morning Market is the local delicacy Katsuura Tantanmen.
This dish won the B-1 Gourmet Grand Prix in 2015 and became famous all throughout Japan.
The Katsuura Tantan Noodles from “Restaurant Ishii” are a delicious local ramen that uses a healthy amount of chili oil.
After eating some ramen, we recommend trying some warabi mochi at Nanbanya.
It is an authentic warabi mochi that uses domestically produced warabi starch powder. It has a good consistency and it is a very popular Japanese sweet.
The restaurant has various flavors for you to try besides the standard kuromitsu (brown sugar) as well.
Besides that, there are restaurants where you can eat seafood rice bowls using freshly caught seafood as well.
Try eating a delicious breakfast that you won't find anywhere other than Katsuura Morning Market.
