Thank you for always using Gyoko Marche.
The Gyoko Marche began in May 2011 and is now in its 15th year.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all the customers, exhibitors, and producers who attended the event, as this would not have been possible without their support.
The venue will be relocated from October 24, 2025.
[New venue]
Near Shin-Marunouchi Bldg. Building underground entrance (underground in front of Marunouchi Station)
(Look for the "Starbucks Coffee Shin-Marunouchi Bldg. Store")
The event will be held every Friday from 11:30 to 19:30.
We will continue to provide a wide variety of ingredients to everyone as a "city market."
We look forward to seeing you all there.
“Every Friday” is Marche Day!
The Marunouchi Gyoko Marche was launched in 2002 with the cooperation of Aozora Ichiba, represented by actor Toshiyuki Nagashima, with the idea of creating a market in the heart of the city where local ingredients could be easily purchased.
Located in Marunouchi, Tokyo, near the basement entrance of Shin-Marunouchi Bldg. Building (underground in front of Marunouchi Station), producers will be selling safe and delicious seasonal ingredients and food products directly.
Even if you've never tried an ingredient before, it's okay! One of the attractions is that you can buy it while enjoying conversation and learning how to prepare it deliciously.
◆Recommended information for February 6th Fri
Banpeiyu, a specialty of Yatsushiro City, Kumamoto Prefecture, is a variety of pomelo, a citrus fruit known for its particularly large size, measuring approximately 20-25cm in diameter and weighing 1.5-2.5kg.
It is native to the Malay Peninsula, but was brought to Japan from Taiwan by botanist Shimada Yaichi in 1920. After undergoing cultivation trials in Kumamoto Prefecture, it has become widely known as a specialty of the prefecture.
The flesh is cream-colored and firm, with a sweet taste and a refined acidity, and is characterized by its refreshing flavor and juiciness.
Each bunch is large, so it's satisfying to eat as is, but it's also recommended to combine it with vegetables and seafood to make salads, or to use it as an ingredient in various desserts such as jelly, cakes, yogurt, etc. The thick skin can also be enjoyed in marmalade or preserved in sugar.
It is at its most delicious from January to March. Be sure to take your time to savor the taste of Banpeiyu when it is in season.
