Shopping at the New MUJI POP-UP Store in Hankyu Nishinomiya Gardens

I went shopping at the “MUJI POP-UP Store”, which opened at Hankyu Nishinomiya Gardens on April 28!

Inside the “MUJI POP-UP Store”

The “MUJI POP-UP Store” is located on the 3rd floor of Hankyu Nishinomiya Gardens, in the East Mall!
It had just opened, but it was already packed with customers!

In the most eye-catching spot in the store, there were cold water pitchers lined up, perfect for this season!

The bottle for barley tea has evolved since the last time I bought one!

And this is what MUJI is famous for: the retort curry section.
From chilled curries to niche Asian-style curries, there are soooo many kinds 😆

I really love MUJI’s green curry, but I didn’t know they had a “non-spicy” version!
Even people who aren’t good with spicy food can enjoy that flavor!

The 99-yen snack section!
This section is in a spot that’s easy to see from the Gardens walkway.

Gardens has many customers with small children, so we hope they’ll stop by when the kids get hungry and fussy, or when taking a break in the Sky Garden.

The hugely popular “Fuzoroi Baum” series, cakes, and more.

There are so many flavors just for the baum cakes! I want to try all kinds, so it’s hard to choose 😋

Even the shampoo refill packs look so stylish just lined up like this!

They’re refills, but they look so clean and cool! Even if I stocked up, I wouldn’t hide them. I’d actually want to line them up!

“Interior Fragrance Oil”
It’s near the entrance, and the lovely scent draws you in 😍

The large and small “Silicone Cooking Spoons”!

They’re super handy when scraping up curry left in a pot!
I have both sizes at home, haha.

The socks are only 230 yen! They’re good quality and durable, but isn’t that way too cheap!?

Oh, I’m wearing these today, haha.

Shacho was supposed to be in charge of the camera. Before we knew it, he was seriously picking out products, haha.

They also have a series of shirts with no side seams!
Just having no seams makes them incredibly comfortable!! The material feels great too 🙆

April 27 Broadcast of “Hayashi Osamu no Nippon Drill”

On Fuji TV’s “Hayashi Osamu no Nippon Drill”, which aired on Wednesday, April 27, they had a segment where people “guessed MUJI’s most popular No. 1 products while shopping”!
Did you watch it 🙋?

The products that ranked No. 1 on the show,
“Silicone Cooking Spoon” (Kitchen cooking goods category),
“Right Angle Socks with No Elastic Top” (Comfort lifestyle goods category),
and “Fuzoroi Banana Baum” (Food category),
are all available at the POP-UP Store!

Since our visit was the day after the TV broadcast, apparently many customers were picking them up!
If you missed it, you can watch it on Tver (*The end date for streaming is unknown.) → here

What We Bought at the “MUJI POP-UP Store”

Here’s what Shacho from Nishitsu bought when he got serious about shopping ↓

Yep, he was serious, haha.
For the snacks, it seems he loved that they paid attention to ingredients, with things like “beet sugar,” “100% fruit juice,” and “soy milk and okara”!

I like the design, and the snack ingredients feel healthy, so I ended up buying too much!
For the curries, I got some popular ones and I’ll take them home and try a bunch.

Shacho! Please leave the fragrance oil at the office, haha.

Big MUJI stores are exciting, but this compact, easy-to-browse store size is also really convenient for shopping!
