Ochanokosaisai Nishiki — Local services in Kyoto

The secret is out on social media! I was worried I wouldn't find the store in Nishiki Market but all I need have done was look for the crowds! Located down the far western end of the markets, Kyoto Spice is distinct with its oak wooden panelling. The shop was rammed with people but I still managed to get a rice sample with their signature Furikake. I got several packets for myself and for gifts. Unfortunately I didnt realise the line to pay went out the door! So I accidentally pushed in but was quickly told off by another Australian! haha

Other stores in the market sell Furikake - but we ware of imitations! There was another store near the Bamboo Forest that...

I didn't plan to go here but the samplers got me! I didn't think too much about visiting this rice seasoning store but when I saw the employee giving out free samples, I couldn't resist walking over to get one to try, and that sure got me hook because I went in and bought like 10 packs of them XD LOL. I wasn't the only one mind you, this other girl had arm full of the same rice seasoning pack I was buying! It was that good. 10/10. I was very excited that I found this so I can make better tasting onigiri at home. I recommend this place for spice lovers or any adventurous cooks. They sell other spices too, so not just...

The best place to get Furikake!! So many flavors and types. They provide tons of samples of all their products including furikake on rice, chili oils, crackers and even broth!! They also provide tea to help cool the spiciness. They have gift bags if needed as well.

Staff is very friendly, actively encourages sampling their products and answers all questions.

I purchased several items for myself and family. Highly...
