Rose Mae's tour
Asakusa Private Food Tour
Eat through old-town Asakusa with a local who knows the family-run kitchens hidden behind the souvenir stalls and tourist queuesKey Facts
Overview
Just one street away from the souvenir stalls, the crowd disappears and the smell of grilled rice crackers and sweet bean paste wafts through the air. A shop here has been run by the same family for longer than most countries have had their current flag! And the woman behind the counter has made the same thing every morning for decades.
There are food tours that hand you a list of predetermined spots. This is not one of them. Your Local Expert decides the streets you walk, the places you eat, all based on what you told them you were curious about. Asakusa is the most visited old town in Tokyo, and also the easiest to do badly. The good version is just one street over, let the Local Expert show you.
