🛍️ Kobe Daikokuya Santica Store神戸大黒屋さんちか店

Kobe Daikokuya opened in 1960 and is a renowned store that specializes in making and selling tsukudani using carefully selected ingredients. Its branch located in the underground shopping street "Santica" in the Sannomiya area is easily accessible from both JR and private railway stations, making it convenient for shopping even on rainy days. The rich variety of products is the key to Daikokuya's popularity. The store displays over 50 items, including "beef tsukudani" and "ikanago no kugini" (sweet and savory simmered baby sardines). In addition to the baby sardines caught in the waters off Kobe and Kobe beef, many seasonings such as soy sauce and wine also use ingredients sourced from Hyogo Prefecture. The sweet and salty flavor, slow-cooked to perfection, pairs well with steaming white rice and is also a delightful accompaniment to drinks, appealing to both adults and children. The Japanese-style packaging is perfect for souvenirs. Among the offerings, the "Kobe Beef Burdock Root Tsukudani" paired with "Kobe Ground Beef Tsukudani" in the "Kobe Beef Assorted Gift Box," as well as the "Matsutake Kombu" made with fragrant matsutake mushrooms and Hokkaido kelp, are especially favorites among international tourists.
