Kochi, Japan
Shikoku's Sunday market, running for well over a mile through the center of town, is the largest and oldest street market in Japan, farmers and fishermen selling directly from stalls much as they have for over three hundred years. Bonito, seared over a straw fire and sliced thick, is close to a civic dish here, best eaten with a shot of the region's own sake. Ryoma Sakamoto, one of the key figures in ending Japan's feudal era, was born in this city and is honored with a striking bronze statue overlooking the bay. An unpretentious, proudly local corner of Shikoku.
