Other highlights of Toyama city include dinner at Suehiroken for wonton ramen which has a branch in the Daiwa department store. I asked what their osusume, recommendation, is and they said the wonton ramen was popular. Everyone who came in after us all ordered the wonton ramen. 🙂 

Dining at department stores is one of my favorite recommendations for seeking out a place to eat in a new city. There are reputable restaurants, often on the top floor, of department stores.

An excellent shop for curated local crafts and foods is D&Department Toyama. There is also a cafe in the store.

Visiting local supermarkets are always fun to see local food culture and to bring home products to remind us of our time in a different part of Japan. There are two supermarkets near Toyama Station, both on the south side.

Hokuya is a gourmet market in the Maroot building. If you only have time for one, make it this one. I picked up lots of condiments, seasonings, and fish cakes for making oden.

Albis is a big supermarket, where the locals shop. I did pick up many kombu products here.
