Futaba Food Center in Musashikoyama

If you think shopping for groceries in Tokyo is expensive, you might want to check this place out. Futaba Food Center a very very cheap food market tucked away in Musashikoyama, just 2 stops away from JR Meguro station.  Here, you can find vegetables, fruit, meat, fish, and deli (deep fried dishes such as tempura) that are sold much cheaper that your local supermarket.

In the vegetable market, you can also find produces that you normally do not find in a local supermarket such as artichoke, fennel, rhubarb, and probably less than half of the price at the posh supermarkets in central Tokyo.

It'a a bit tricky to find this place as you need to go through a short alley off of Heiwa-dori Shotengai （平和通り商店街）. This shopping street also has a couple of reasonable shops that you want to look at while you are there.

Futaba Food Center is open 6 days a week, closed on Sunday and National Holidays. They are open on Wednesdays when the central market is closed but will be selling leftover items from the day before.
