EAT LIKE A LOCAL

The Osaka table — what to order and where the locals point.

Takoyaki on the street

Octopus spheres flipped with speed-of-light picks — molten inside, mandatory.

Okonomiyaki rivalry

The savory pancake griddled at your table — Osaka style, never Hiroshima's, locally speaking.

Kushikatsu in Shinsekai

Everything skewered and fried — one rule: no double-dipping the sauce.

Kuromon Market

The eat-as-you-walk market — uni, wagyu skewers and fruit like jewelry.

Standing bars (tachinomi)
