Lonely Planet review

Ameya-yokochō, or Ameyoko, is one of the only old-fashioned outdoor markets in Tokyo. It's famous as a post-WWII black market and even now retains that throwback feel. Merchants call out to attract customers and open-air stalls display dried seafood, herbs and mushrooms. The Ameyoko Center Building contains stalls selling imported spices, produce and herbs from mainland Asia, and there are a few bargains on clothing and shoes in the area.
