Kawagoe is a Japanese city northwest of Tokyo famous for its old clay warehouses from the Edo period and its unique street food! Head to the main area Kurazukuri no Machinami and you’ll find all of the spots we ate at in this video. The Japanese street food we found in Kawagoe was unique to the town- loads of sweet potato treats for which the area is famous for.

What we ate:

Sweet potato 350 yen/$2.65USD

Yakitori 180yen each/$1.50USD

Cucumber 200 yen/$1.50USD

Onigiri topped with bonito flakes 250 yen/$1.90USD

Steamed sweet potato and red bean dumpling 250 yen/$1.90USD

We’re Thomas and Sheena, food and travel fiends. We travel full time, hunting for the BEST local food in the world to showcase via our YouTube videos. Food is a window into a country’s culture and one of the most exciting ways to get to know a place.

We’re all about eating what and where the locals eat. You won’t find food that’s been created merely to be social media worthy on here- no rainbow bagels, gold leaf soft serves- just honest food that tastes incredible.

From street food to mom and pop restaurants, we want to show you the best food we find on our travels.

  9. Cool video from Kawagoe, guys! But you need to try the local beer called Koedo. It’s great! Also, the area is known for sweet bean treats. We live close by. If you need more tips on cool places to eat in Western Tokyo, let me know.
