Is there anywhere in Birmingham that sells Japanese food? I'm looking for a shop, not a restaraunt.?

Question

I'm looking for somewhere that sells dango and mochi, is there a region similar to Chinatown or Oriental City in London, but in Birmingham? Surely the South doesn't get all the good stuff? I know I can buy stuff online but I'd really like to be able to walk round and browse.

Answer 1

There are some places on this site. Good luck.

Answer 2

Wing Yip Chinese but has a seperate Japanese section, as well as a decent selection of fresh produce. Prices are about as good as you’ll get in London, especially if buying in bulk.

There is a small Korean grocery on Bristol Rd., near Selly Oak station, which also carries Chinese and Japanese groceries.
