Osaka Street Food Odyssey
This food tour will offer a glimpse into Osaka’s culinary culture, which is the heart and soul of the city. Enjoy a variety of styles of Japanese cuisine in an eclectic selection of venues.
Area
Osaka
Today’s tour begins at 17:00. Meet a local food guide and head to the first stop. This will be a restaurant serving either tempura or kushi katsu, fried skewers of meat and vegetables. Either way, fried food is a major part of Osakan cuisine and a perfect way to start the evening.
Next, head to a restaurant specialising in wagyu beef dishes. Often referred to as the most expensive beef in the world, wagyu beef is of a superb quality, and is on many a gourmet’s wish list. Enjoy the melt-in-the-mouth textures with a refreshing cocktail.
After walking around the atmospheric backstreets, the final stop will be a small teppanyaki restaurant to try some delicious gyoza and must-eat Osaka-style okonomiyaki pancakes cooked on a metal plate right in front of guests.
Bid farewell to the guide, and either return to the hotel or go for a stroll around the neighbourhood to take in the sights
