Stumbled into this gem of a market in Shinshushinmachi while exploring rural Nagano in early spring — and wow, the wild mountain vegetables here are incredible! That chunky wasabi root I'm holding? Fresh from the local mountains. The variety on those tiered shelves blew my mind — this is where the real flavours of Chubu come from.
早春の信州新町日原西を歩いていたら、こんな素敵な山菜市場を発見!地元採れの山わさびの根がこんなに立派で、その他の山菜の品揃えも最高だった。中部地方の本物の味はここにあるんだな!!
