Tsukiji Outside Market

December 31, the last day in 2012.
Is this year good for you? Or you want to change something in the next year?
Well, whatever on your mind, I wish you happy in the freshly, brand-new next year.

Today I went to Tsukiji Outside Market, for buying salmon roe, my special dish for tomorrow.
Tsukiji Fish Market has outside market where open for the public. There are fish shops, vegetable shops, sushi restaurants, groceries in narrow lanes.

The market is always crowded especially at the end of the year, because people come to prepare for new year, buying fish, vegetables and other traditional Japanese food.
