From our Secret Food Tours in Osaka, you will get to savour many different types of culinary delights that showcase locals' most loved foods. • The tour begins with walking through the covered arcade of Tenjinbashi street. We will visit an establishment dedicated to Osaka and the Kansai region where you will get to try a very local soft drink with some rice crackers. • Then, we will take you to the hidden shrine of Tenmangu for a little spiritual refreshment. • Stroll along the busy shopping street with local food stalls selling a variety of Japanese foods. We will stop by to enjoy freshly cut and seared mackerel sashimis. • Just next door you see a knife shop (established in 1772) selling every single sort of cooking knife you have ever dreamed of. • Time to sit in a traditional restaurant with kotatsu seating and enjoy the classic okonomiyaki Osaka style with a glass of fresh draft beer. • Next up we walk down the arcade to reach the Taiyaki artisan and enjoy a freshly baked one prepared in front of you. • Time for a second break and the discovery of the Udon, those thick flour noodles so present in Japanese households. • As we reach the Tenma Station, we show you the “tachinomiya” area and the narrow streets riddled with food stalls for people in need of food before their journey home. There we stop, we keep calm and enjoy a cup of tea. • Kushi katsu comes on the top 3 of the Osaka’s dish list, obviously we could not skip it • Our second sweet is some Dango mochi skewers. • • And of course you will also have experienced our secret dish that is a childhood memory for many of the locals.
