Moriya Shoten Motomachi is a historic butcher shop founded in 1873, renowned for its signature croquettes fried to aromatic perfection at the storefront. Inside the thin, crispy crust lies a dense blend of moist, smooth potatoes with natural sweetness and savory minced meat. Its minced meat cutlet, packed with the juiciness of coarsely ground meat and the sweetness of slowly sautéed onions, is equally celebrated for delivering the distinct satisfaction of a traditional meat shop. Although lines often form in front of the counter with customers seeking freshly fried items, turnover is fast and purchasing is smooth. Once handed your paper bag, eating it piping hot on the spot as a snack while exploring the neighborhood is a classic Motomachi pleasure. With affordable pricing, it serves as a handy bite while touring or as an accompaniment for evening dinner.
