4-Hour Eat Like a Local: Osaka Walking Food Tour Itinerary
- Begin in the Tenma neighborhood, known for its narrow alleys and local taverns.
Meet your guide near a tucked-away standing bar, surrounded by family-run eateries.
Taste your first dish: Kushikatsu – skewered and deep-fried bites served with dipping sauce.
Learn local etiquette, such as the famous rule of "No double dipping."
Stroll through a traditional shotengai (covered shopping street) filled with bustling local shops.
Sample Takoyaki – freshly grilled octopus balls made in front of you at a local-favorite stall.
Listen as your guide shares stories about Osaka’s deep-rooted street food culture.
Head into a cluster of izakayas or food stalls tucked into a local alley.
Try Doteyaki – slow-simmered beef tendon stew rich in miso, served hot in a cozy setting.
Venture toward the quieter backstreets of Kuromon Market, away from tourist crowds.
Enjoy a seasonal street dish based on what is fresh that day – could be negiyaki, oden, or okonomiyaki.
Conclude the tour at a nostalgic café or dessert stand in a retro-style alley.
Savor a traditional sweet such as mitarashi dango, matcha parfait, or monaka ice cream.
Relax with an optional cup of tea or sake (at your own cost) while your guide answers questions about Osaka food traditions.
