Sensō-ji is the reason to come, and it glows once the day crowds leave. Around it, Asakusa Imahan does sukiyaki, Namiki Yabusoba does soba, Daikokuya Tempura does prawns, and Asakusa Unatetsu serves eel by the river. Asakusa Hanayashiki is the old-school amusement park, Fuglen Asakusa and DEUS EX MACHINA ASAKUSA handle coffee, and Kama-Asa and Tsubaya sell knives and kitchenware. Go early, before the tour groups.
