1. This Japanese grocery in San Mateo is the kind of place regulars treat like a secret, though the packed aisles of Peninsula Japanese American families suggest it's not much of one. The sashimi-grade fish is the real draw, but the prepared foods hold their own, from seaweed salad by the pound to bento boxes and onigirazu stuffed with Spam and egg. Show up near closing and the pre-cut sashimi gets heavily discounted.
