[Osaka/Namba] Takoyaki, loved for half a century
#0yentravelautumn #Osaka #Osakatourism #Osakafood #takoyaki #takoyakiwanaka
📍3-7-24 Namba, Chuo-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture
2 minutes walk from Namba Station, Midosuji Subway Line
🕰️10:00-22:00 · Closed. None.
I wanted to eat something when I came to Osaka, so I went to Wanaka Namba Store. Wanaka used to run a sushi restaurant and a confectionery shop. It was a popular store with local children, and it seems that the roots of Wanaka as the "takoyaki" it is today are when they started grilling takoyaki on the eaves. I thought about taking it back to the hotel to eat, but I wanted to eat it fresh, so I ate it in front of the store. The inside was soft and had a large octopus inside. I was happy to be able to eat delicious takoyaki while panting.

Osaka AmazingPass
Osaka is easy to travel. I recommend Amazing pass 2 days. It's very cheap. You can ride for free. Many lines cover the city and many tourist attractions in the city. Many free activities. I will definitely come again. It's delicious. There are many accommodations. You must try the wagyu buffet. Izakaya with only Japanese people near Namba Station. It's so cool. Two days is not enough. You can move to travel outside the city or move to another city. It's worth it. #osaka
💞Reason for recommendation: Cheap, comprehensive
Yakiniku Like, a place where you can eat alone in Namba, Osaka
Arriving in Namba at night, I suddenly wanted to eat some yakiniku. Yakiniku Like yakiniku can be an option. You don’t have to worry about the embarrassment of language barriers when ordering on a tablet. You don’t need to make an appointment or cannot make an appointment. You just have to queue up. It’s open until 11pm.
The combo meal includes meat, rice and soup. You can order small and large portions if you want to add some extras. I ordered the large portion just for the taste (not much)~
Osaka Namba has many people and delicious food 👍
Wondering around Namba, Osaka.
Strolling around soaking in the beauty of Namba and its surrounding in the cool lovely autumn weather. Lots of people and good bargains around. Love the easily available of food everywhere! You can even find vending machines for alcoholic beverages here.
Come eat Pablo's cake
#NovemberTravelSupportEvent I ate the Pablo Cheesecake that you must eat in Japan. The cheesecake is small in size, so it's good to eat alone. Since I could eat only the cheesecake, I went to 7-Eleven and ordered an Americano to eat together.

This time I bought flights and hotels to Osaka through trip. The trip there and back went smoothly, and I loved the hotel I stayed at! The self-service hotel has a washing machine, bathtub, and balcony. You can wash and dry your own clothes every day. You can put the items you bought in your luggage. You don’t need to bring too many clothes to save space in your suitcase, and then continue to book your next trip!
Osaka food!
Skirt steak rice bowl - It was a little chewy, but it was delicious because it was rich and sweet
Pork cutlet - It's delicious no matter where you go! I ground the sesame seeds myself and made the pork cutlet sauce, and it was so flavorful👍🏼
Ichiran Ramen - Always add chashu and eggs! And lots of secret sauce!

[Osaka Trip] In Ura-Namba, where long-established shops gather
I visited a yakitori restaurant with counter seating only, recommended by an acquaintance, in the Ura-Namba area, which is home to many old and stylish shops in Osaka. The yakitori is fresh and delicious, cooked right in front of you after you order, and I also had chicken sashimi for the first time in my life...it was so good😭 The saltiness was also perfect. It's a bit of a walk from the Namba area, but I recommend it.
