Overview

Street stall selling 'tako tamago' – small candied octopus stuffed with a quail egg on a skewer.

This small Kyoto establishment has gained fame for their signature 'tako tamago', a whimsical street snack featuring a small octopus with a quail egg stuffed in its head, simmered in sweet soy. The candied tentacles on a stick have become a popular Nishiki Market photo opportunity and surprisingly tasty treat. The shop's focused specialty has made it a must-visit along the market street.
