Kyoya Japanese Market
1956 E. Sunrise Blvd. (Gateway Plaza), Fort Lauderdale, 954/761-8010
The first things to greet you when you walk into Kyoya Japanese Market are rows of Japanese videotapes, presumably for homesick Japanese folks living in South Florida. In fact, Kyoya provides a considerable slice of Japanese culture. Its shelves are stocked with exotic foodstuffs from dried seaweed and red beans to canned bamboo shoots and quail eggs. A refrigerated case contains such delights as pickled plums, edamame (soy beans) and seafood dumplings. Various rice seasonings, as well as tamari, unagi and soy sauces, can add some zest to your meals, which you may choose to wash down with any of a variety of sakes or herbal teas. Whimsically packaged snacks such as Japanese caramel corn and Pocky, strawberry- and chocolate-covered biscuit sticks, provide additional tastes of the Far East. Kyoya also serves up fresh sushi and sashimi to go.
