#大坂美食攻略 In addition to takoyaki and okonomiyaki, Osaka desserts are also worth looking forward to. The cheese tarts at "PABLO" near Dotonbori have a rich taste and come in a variety of flavors, making them popular among young people. Dotonbori Imai, a Japanese confectionery shop in Shinsaibashi, offers exquisite traditional desserts and is a great place to experience Japanese culture. Osaka's specialty snacks include skewers, grilled squid, and fried chicken nuggets. The skewers shop "Kushi Katsu Daruma" is particularly popular. The fried food is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the special sauce is very memorable. These desserts and snacks are located in popular neighborhoods in the city center, making them easy to enjoy in one stop.

We went to Dotonbori at midnight before the subway closed. The lights were off and there weren't many people around, which allowed us to take photos in front of the shops. You could easily tell what each shop was selling, and it was incredibly beautiful. We spent 2 hours here, walking around until we reached the Glico sign at 1 AM. There were still people walking around, mostly teenagers. Despite the late hour, we felt safe because this is Japan.

Colourful and vibrant city! Must try Kobi beef 🥩 😋

I was Osaka so many times because of the food. It was a-place to explore seafood food and local Japanese food. It's like a place to spend a lie at their famous restaurant to wait for good food. Koki Ramen be sushi and stuff. Giant crab seafood also nearby is a good big shopping more than you can get whatever you want in the good prices , a lot of duty-free shops. Highly recommend to everyone who first time in Japan.

Saw a lot of people recommending it online 🥰 so I came early in the morning to queue up and try it out. It opened at 11:30, and when I arrived at 11:15, I saw that there were already people queuing outside the door 😂11:30, and all the staff who entered the store were super polite and friendly 👍👍👍The food quality is good🥰🥰🥰Delicious, I will definitely come again next time💕💕💕
