×Maguro-yaki (tuna-shaped cake)
Why you must eat itA Tsukiji joke: an imagawayaki baked in the shape of a tuna. Two kinds — "honmaguro" (red bean) and "chutoro" (mochi plus red bean) — with no fish inside; the shape is the gag. A crisp shell around warm filling. As the market's sweet, it delights kids and works as a gift.
The shop that sells tuna-shaped cakes in the Tsukiji outer market — a place that turned "this is a tuna town" into the very shape of a sweet. Handed over fresh in paper, it sparks the small debate of whether to start from the tail or the head. Sold until gone.
