Oft-overlooked Osaka should truly not be missed. With big-city excitement and small-town warmth, we love it more and more every time we go.
It may not be a michelin-star dining experience, though this is one of our hot-spots in Osaka when we're after a quick refuel and casual dinner. Unassuming, though big on flavour, pop into Takoyaki Yamachan for some of the tastiest octopus balls. Served with 'Young B' (soy sauce and mayo) or our favourite 'goma-shio' (sesame oil and salt), this makes for an incredibly moreish supper.
Sake and sushi: name a better duo! Serving the freshest fish from blue crab, monkfish, octopus, to Harika squid there is an endless amount to try. So go with an empty stomach and an open mind, as Masaru sushi won't let you down!
