Stories from “Where do you buy Valentine’s chocolate?”
All right then, let’s get into some classic Nishinomiya answers.
A nearby supermarket
Fancy chocolate just doesn’t suit you. On a special day, it has to be the chocolate you’re used to eating. Fujiya heart-shaped chocolate with beer. But, you know, he doesn’t eat the chocolate, so I end up eating it myself, and before I know it I’m buying chocolate that suits my own tastes.
Female, 60 or older
Tsumagari
They’re famous for cakes, but their chocolate is delicious too.
Female, 50s
Tsumagari

Female, 40s

Ito-Yokado
Starting with the special Valentine’s section, they also have plenty of regular gift shops. The prices are reasonable and the taste is reliable, so I count on them every year. I used to stay in and buy online a lot, but these days shipping fees just keep going up, so it’s nice that I can go there by bicycle.
Female, 40s
Gyomu Super
I buy a big Belgian chocolate bar at Gyomu Super and use it to bake gateau chocolat. My husband raves about it every year. lol
Female, 40s
7-Eleven
Because the nama chocolate in the 7-Eleven cup is just too good.
Male, 30s
Ito-Yokado
This year, I want to finally gather the courage to confess my feelings to the guy I love.
Male, teens
So, to sum it up:
- Hankyu Nishinomiya
- Tsumagari
- Nishinomiya Gardens
