Selain menjual bahan makanan, di pasar ini juga banyak depot atau resto yang tersebar di sekitarnya. Walaupun pinggir jalan, tapi harganya tidak beda jauh dengan harga di dalam mall mall di Jepang. Dengan harga demikian, tempat makan di sekitar Tsukiji tetap ramai pengunjung, kemungkinan karena rasa dan kesegaran bahannya cukup baik.

Apart from selling fish and other raw seafood products, a lot of eatery also open shops around Tsukiji market. Though some are place on the street, therefore a bit uncomfortable in comparison to regular restaurants around malls and such. Though street side and spartan, the prices here are similar to regular restaurant, I suspect that people flock here for the freshness of ingredients used and the taste.

Tsukiji Market - A Very Large Oyster (700 yen)

Oyster besar ini harganya 700 Yen, atau dengan kurs saat itu = Rp 70.000.
Harganya cukup tinggi, tapi worth it karena di Surabaya belum bisa ketemu oyster segede ini. Untuk perbandingan bisa dilihat hidangan Oyster Sashimi yang dihargai Rp 9.000 per buah, di Yung Ho Surabaya : http://www.foodgrapher.com/2012/09/yung-ho-seafood-tempatnya-oyster-sashimi.html


This Oyster is priced at 700 Yen, which equates to about Rp 70.000
It's quite steep, but worth the cost for me, since in Surabaya I never saw an oyster this big.
For a comparison you can visit this page, review of a restaurant that sells oyster sashimi, at Rp 9.000 per piece.
