Let's peek into the world of Super Tamade, one of Japan’s most unique and infamous supermarkets. Known for its blinding neon lights that make it feel more like an arcade than a grocery store at times, Tamade embodies the vibrant, gritty charm of Osaka. With its budget-friendly prices and its rich (and sometimes controversial) history, this chain's stores can be found across Osaka.

Tamade’s is famous for its 1-yen sales, drawing customers in with unbeatable deals. But there’s more to the story—its founder was linked to various scandals, including alleged connections to organized crime, leading to his retirement. Despite this, Tamade remains a symbol of Osaka’s energy, offering a raw, colourful shopping experience unlike anything you’ll find in Tokyo.

In this video, I visit two Tamade locations and buy some products. Along the way, I’ll talk about the new partnership between Tamade and Niku no Hanamasa. I'll also go through my haul at the end.

Whether you're here for budget shopping, local culture, or simply the spectacle, Tamade is a must-see. Just maybe steer clear of the bentos.
