Welcome to the enchanting world of witchcraft-themed cooking space! This unique and magical realm invites you to infuse your culinary adventures with a touch of mysticism and whimsy. Step into this realm, where kitchen tools transform into mystical artifacts and ingredients take on the power to create spells. In this bewitching space, you will find elegant cauldrons bubbling with broths and potions, ready to add a dash of mystery to your cooking. These cauldrons, often made of cast iron or copper, serve as the centerpiece of your witchcraft-themed stove. Their earthy aesthetic and rustic charm make them both practical and beguiling. Gleaming cauldrons aside, an assortment of mystical utensils adorns the walls.
I was surprised that these shops were so popular in Japan, but I guess that’s my own ignorance showing through. After thinking about it and learning more about the faiths that are present in Japan, there’s no reason why shops selling crystals, incense, and other magical things wouldn’t be popular. There’s also a huge number of palm readers around, and I really want to go to one once my Japanese is up to scratch.
If you head to Tokyo however, there aren t as many big shops, but the crystals you can find are a little cheaper, especially if you can find the crystal shop at the end of Takeshita Street in Harajuku. The business is heavily involved with the local metaphysical community and regularly hosts events on its patio space, so it s also a great spot to hang out when you re not in the mood to shop.
Gleaming cauldrons aside, an assortment of mystical utensils adorns the walls. Whisk away your fears with a wand-shaped whisk or sprinkle magic with a spoon infused with moonlight. These unique tools not only add a touch of whimsy but also serve as functional kitchen implements, allowing you to stir up your culinary concoctions with an added air of enchantment.
Witchy Shopping in Japan
It’s day 4 of my 28 day challenge and today I’m supposed to go to a witchy store. I would be super up for this, but I have to go to work. However, last weekend I was out with my friends wandering around Yokohama’s impressive Chinatown, and I dragged a couple of them into my favourite shop there. This place is 4 floors of incense, jewellry, clothing, homeware, and a surprising number of bongo drums. My husband is not a fan, so he waited outside with a couple other friends while the rest of us explored.

I have to admit, when I first started to become interested in witchcraft, I was really hesitant to go into any crystal or witchy looking shops. There were a couple of them close to where I used to live in London, but I never got a very welcoming feeling from them. In Japan however, every shop you go into you are greeted. It’s just customary in most places, but in a lot of the stores that I’ve been to, they’re quite friendly to you.
My haul from the Harajuku crystal shopWhen it comes to magical shopping in Japan, your best bet is to shop around. Different shops will have different specialties. For example, in Yokohama there are several big shops, but the crystals are quite pricey. If you head to Tokyo however, there aren’t as many big shops, but the crystals you can find are a little cheaper, especially if you can find the crystal shop at the end of Takeshita Street in Harajuku. One thing I’ve yet to find though is a good candle shop that won’t cost an arm and a leg. Coming from an area where you could get giant candles that smelled amazing for around £5, it’s quite frustrating to have to make do with tea lights that barely smell of anything. If I can’t find any soon I might have to make my own.

1. John - 1 star
I was really excited to try out this witchcraft themed cooking space, but it was a complete disappointment. The ambiance was eerie and creepy, not at all what I was expecting for a cooking experience. The ingredients were also questionable, with strange potions and herbs that I had never heard of. The food itself tasted terrible, and I couldn't even finish my meal. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique cooking experience.

I had high hopes for the witchcraft themed cooking space, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The decor was over the top and felt cheap, with fake cobwebs and tacky cauldrons everywhere. The staff tried to create a spooky atmosphere, but it just came across as cheesy and forced. The food was average at best, nothing special or unique about it. Overall, I was disappointed with the experience and wouldn't recommend it to others.

The witchcraft themed cooking space sounded intriguing, but it ended up being more of a gimmick than anything else. The decor was overdone and felt more like a haunted house than a cooking space. The cooking instructions were confusing and lacked clear directions, making it difficult to follow along. The food itself was underwhelming and didn't have any of the magical flavors I was hoping for. Overall, it was a disappointing and overpriced experience that I would not revisit.
