By Dolores Quintana

In honor of their first stateside anniversary, Ginza Nishikawa, the celebrated artisanal Japanese milk bread store known for its premium, proprietary ingredients and velvety soft shokupan loaves, will be hosting a special culinary extravaganza – the Nishikawa Night Market. This exclusive, single-night event promises a fusion of flavors, styles, and traditions. All centered around the delectable Ginza Nishikawa bread. This weekend, the celebration will offer an exciting array of shokupan-based delights from various vendors. Best of all, the event is free and open to all ages. Just RSVP via this link

The Night Market will take place at Colony, 11419 Santa Monica Blvd, on Saturday, August 5, from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. in Sawtelle. A Raffle will add extra excitement to the night market experience. Ginza Nishikawa will launch the “Purchase & Win Raffle.” For every purchase made, you’ll receive a raffle ticket that could win you some fantastic prizes:

  • A BALMUDA Toaster (3 up for grabs!)
  • Ginza Nishikawa loaves (10 lucky winners!)

Under the umbrella of Ginza Nishikawa, the renowned Japanese bakery will curate a diverse lineup of vendors serving exclusive Ginza Nishikawa shokupan-based items. Participating vendors include Main Chick Hot Chicken, GoodSteak, The Melt Factory, GG Kitchen, Sweet Rose Creamery, and, of course, the host, Ginza Nishikawa.
