Overview
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 packed with authentic eateries, neighborhood vendors, and a strong local spirit. As you explore this vibrant area near Umeda, you'll dive into Osaka's bold, comforting flavors with up to 10 tastings across 7 stops, 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
• Sashimi – fresh and light, from a local standing bar
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.
