One of the best parts of these matsuri is the food. This time there were tons of stalls ('yatai') on the temple grounds surrounding the Senso-ji. My favourite is probably takoyaki (small dough balls with octopus inside) but there is loads of other stuff. It was fun to see that these matsuri are also opening up - it was the first time I saw yatai with kebab and taco's. Not bad!
In any case, what you see on the (not very clear) picture is some kind of fish-on-a-stick, being grilled. There are definitely some funny-looking things at these places....
Oh, I'm actually trying to find some interesting matsuri for the end of June (Tokyo-area and Kansai) so would love to hear about it if anyone has any tips!
