Offered in: English

This tour led by an expert local guide is a great way to discover hidden dining spots missed by most tourists. You'll begin with a guided historic walk through iconic sights like Ebisubashi Bridge, Dotonbori, Ukiyokoji, and peaceful Hozenji Temple before stepping into the glowing backalleys of Uranamba.

Across three handpicked locations—from a bustling izakaya to a cozy local sake house and a famous dessert shop—you’ll sample 13 authentic Osaka dishes.
Experience a fun hands-on DIY takoyaki, kushikatsu skewers, charcoal-grilled chicken, fresh chef’s selection sashimi, grilled eihire, sake-kasu cream cheese, and a hot-off-the-iron taiyaki dessert.

Along the way, pair your dishes with two included drinks, while learning why Osakans are so passionate about their food culture.

Come hungry – and leave full, both in stomach and in spirit!
