Experience Osaka’s street food scene like a local - far from the crowds of Namba and Shinsaibashi.
This guided walking tour takes you through Tenjinbashisuji, a nearly 2-kilometer-long shopping arcade that’s packed with authentic eateries, neighborhood vendors, and a strong local spirit - but remains largely undiscovered by tourists.
As you explore this vibrant area near Umeda, you’ll dive into Osaka’s bold, comforting flavors with 6+ tastings of the city’s most iconic dishes, including:
• Kushikatsu – deep-fried skewers with signature sauces
• Takoyaki – Osaka’s famous octopus balls
• Okonomiyaki – savory Japanese-style pancake
• Croquettes – hot and crispy
• Taiyaki – sweet fish-shaped cakes
• Tofu pudding – smooth and refreshing
Your local guide will share fun insights into the area’s history, Osaka’s unique food culture, and tips on what else to eat and explore after the tour.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
We'll meet at the Kita Torii Gate of the Tenmangu Shrine at the bottom end of the shopping street. Your guide will be waiting with a "Japan Food Travels" sign.
