My Favorite Japanese Street Food – Taiyaki

Japan is known for its intricate and delicious cuisine making it a global hotspot for foodies. Street food is the key to the Japanese culinary scene as you can enjoy some of the most famous and popular dishes. Local street vendors sell all sorts of Japanese delicacies from small octopus balls (takoyaki) to fried noodles from what is known as a yatai or mobile stall.

If we delve a little deeper into street food in Japan it is a bit different from other countries around the world. While you may find food trucks and stalls lining the sides of the streets Japanese food stalls are usually associated with festivals.

Throughout the year Japan has a large number of festivals that celebrate different historical events and seasons. In addition to these festivals various vendors set up their food stalls so that people can enjoy the festive celebrations with some local food. Regionally street food is available all year round such as in the Nakasu district of Fukuoka.
