Japan's food culture is one of the world's most revered: whether it's the ramen vending machines or one of the country's many three-Michelin-starred restaurants, Japanese cuisine will always get people talking – so its no surprise that Londoners are completely under its spell.

Japan Centre is a cornucopia of authentic Japanese produce, and a temple for those who crave the flavours of Japanese cooking.

The world-leading food hall – which has had a home in Central London since 1976 – brings together a supermarket, a bookstore, a deli, a butcher and a fishmonger, all designed to help you bring the true flavours of Japan home with you.

Now, Japan Centre is making it even easier to cook top-notch Japanese dishes at home with its new range of Cook Boxes. Each box serves six or more people, and comes packed with produce direct from Japan and a recipe card to help you on your way to a delicious dinner in minutes – all you need to do is pick up the fresh ingredients when you're ready to cook.
