Kappabashi-dori

Kappabashi-dori is a big long street in Japan where you can buy lots of things that you might see in a restaurant. It’s like a magic place where you can buy everything that a chef might need to cook delicious food.

On one side of the street, you can find big pots and pans, spoons, and forks that a chef might use to cook big batches of soup or rice. On the other side of the street, there are shops that sell fancy plates and cups for food to be served in. Many of these shops have beautiful and colorful signs outside that make it fun to walk around.
