Japan Travelogue Series: Costco Japan
Costco Japan (Costco in katakana is コストコ and is pronounced as KO-SU-TO-KO) is much like the U.S. Costco, but is, of course, stacked with many more Japanese foods and snacks. You can find all the delicious Japanese flavors you crave in bulk, like dried squid, an assortment of candies, and lots and lots of seasonings, soy sauce, and rice. If you need ingredients for your traditional soup stock, or just want to splurge on Japanese sweets, Costco in Japan has it all for you!
And when you’re done shopping, get cheap and delicious food at the food court, like some Hokkaido soft-serve ice cream (北海道ソフトクリーム, Hokkaido soft cream).
Join Michelle as she gives us a glimpse of the goodies that be found at Costco Japan!
