Ebisu Towson Offers Asian Snacks, Beauty, Stationery, and More
Every time I’m in Towson, I have to stop by Ebisu. It’s one of those places where you walk in for “just a quick peek” and somehow end up leaving with bags full of goodies, lol. The store spans multiple levels, and each floor feels like its own treasure hunt – from snacks and noodles to beauty products, stationery, and even a claw arcade (!!). You guys know how much I love claw arcades, lol. It’s hard to win prizes here though IMO.
If you want a claw arcade where the machines are actually set up to be winnable, my roundup of 4 arcades in Maryland worth the trip has you covered, including a dedicated claw machine spot at Arundel Mills. If you’re also exploring the Baltimore County shopping scene, Objects Found in Catonsville is a beloved antique and vintage shop that just made its return and is well worth the short drive over.
ANYWHO, I first stumbled upon Ebisu not long after they opened, and it instantly became one of my favorite shopping spots in Maryland. On my most recent visit, I was reminded why it’s such a can’t-miss destination.
What I Picked Up at Ebisu DMV
Here’s a rundown of some of the fun things I snagged during my last trip:
- Japanese and Korean snacks & chips (unique flavors you won’t find at a regular grocery store)
- A few packs of instant noodles from their massive ramen aisle
- Cute pens & stationery (seriously, their selection is SO good)
- Skincare from their beauty section – I stocked up on sheet masks, hehe
- A couple of mugs because… how could I not?
