New mega Japanese supermarket chain to open first East Bay location

A much-anticipated Japanese supermarket chain is set to open in the East Bay this month.

What we know: Tokyo Central will open a 40,000 square foot store in Emeryville at the Bay Street shopping district on Jan. 31. The store offers a wide range of imported Japanese foods, fresh seafood, meat and poultry, produce, made-to-order and ready-to-go meals, health and beauty products and other specialty goods. It will also have space for dining.

“Tokyo Central at Bay Street will also feature an upscale dining establishment serving fresh and authentic Japanese cuisine,” the Bay Street website said.
