A “pre-opening” of Tokyo Central & Main took place in Gardena’s Pacific Square on Sept. 4. The store, located at the former site of Marukai, offers a variety of Japanese groceries, beverages, pastries, deli items, anime goods, beauty and health items, and other products, much like the Tokyo Central markets in Costa Mesa and West Covina. The food court has also reopened. A grand opening is planned for November. Tokyo Central & Main is located at 1620 W. Redondo Beach Blvd. and is open daily from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. For more information, call (310) 464-8888 or visit www.tokyocentral.com. (Photos by J.K. YAMAMOTO/Rafu Shimpo)
