Osaka is the third largest city in Japan and the capital of food. Due to its geographical location and commercial prosperity, Osaka's food culture is very diverse, covering all kinds of authentic snacks. If you are a food lover, you can definitely find food that suits your taste in Osaka.
The most famous food in Osaka is "Takoyaki". This is an octopus ball made from a small spherical baking tray, which is filled with various seasonings and chopped green onion, each of which is delicious. I have been to Dotonbori Commercial Street in Osaka and tried many small meatball shops. As a result, each one is very delicious. Among them, my favorite is the small shop named "Dotonbori Maruko". Its meatballs are crisp, melt in the mouth and drool every time I think about them.
Besides meatballs, Osaka's "barbecue rice" is also a very famous food. This is a kind of rice ball made of thin beef slices, in which ingredients such as barbecue, chopped green onion and mushrooms are added. Poured with rich Japanese sauce, you can taste the delicious meat and the mellow sauce in one bite. In Osaka, every "barbecue rice" restaurant has its own unique flavor, but my favorite is a barbecue rice restaurant named "Dongkoulong", whose beef is tender and delicious and affordable.
Of course, Osaka not only has traditional snacks, but also some high-end Japanese restaurants. In these restaurants, you can taste very authentic Japanese cuisine, especially pasta with Osaka characteristics. My favorite restaurant is called "Chrysanthemum Water", which offers a set meal, including sake and delicious dishes made with local ingredients. My favorite dish is a kind of fried chicken called "Tang Yang げ". The chicken in it is tender, crisp and tender, and it melts in the mouth.
In addition to food, Osaka's food culture also includes food shopping and food festivals. In some traditional markets in the city, you can buy all kinds of local food and specialties. For example, a traditional food in Osaka is "puffer liver", which is a very popular gift. If you catch up with Osaka Food Festival, you can try more local food. For example, Osaka holds a food festival called "Osaka Kobe Wine and Food Expo" every year, which attracts many domestic and foreign tourists.
Besides delicious food, Osaka has many attractive attractions. In the city, you can visit many historical buildings and places of interest. For example, Osaka Castle, one of the most famous landmarks in this city, was built in16th century and is one of the important cultural and historical heritages in Japan. In addition, Osaka also has an area called "Tianbao Mountain", where there is a ferris wheel called "Tianbao Mountain Ferris Wheel". Every night, the lights of the whole city will illuminate the whole Tianbaoshan area, which is very beautiful.
In a word, Osaka is a city full of food culture, and its food includes many traditional snacks and local specialties. These foods are not only delicious, but also very affordable. They are real food paradise. If you are a food lover, you should go to Osaka and enjoy the food experience brought by this city.
