Magikarp taiyaki haven

Kurikoan Akihabara, nestled in the Handa Building, is known for its playful Magikarp-shaped taiyaki, a fun twist on the traditional fish-shaped pastry. Situated at the vibrant intersection of Manseibashi on Chuo-dori, it offers an open-front counter where taiyaki are baked fresh, making it a popular photo op and snack choice. Mainly serving the bustling foot traffic of tourists and locals, it's a quick-stop delight in the heart of the anime district.
