Ichiran Ramen, this shop is located near Shinsaibashi in the center of Osaka. The business in the shop is pretty good. For ramen, you can freely choose the thickness of the pork bone soup base, the softness of the noodles, whether to add chopped green onions, etc. If the noodles are not enough, you can add a portion of ramen.
Ichiran Ramen is very famous in Japan and has many chain stores. The soup base of their noodles is made from real pork bones and is very delicious. The noodles are also very chewy and have a springy texture.

Universal's whimsical eatery: Cute Mario eats wow taste buds
Verified user reviews
There are Mario elements everywhere, it's nice to take pictures, and the mushroom soup here is very good
Universal Studios Mario Park has been extremely popular since its opening💢!
Here I share my experience of playing Mario N times with you, so that you can play without any obstacles, and spend all the 💰 you save on eating, drinking, playing and shopping! Enjoy the unique experience of the basic ticket easily, and have fun together! 💰🎮
🍄 Top door rush route 🍄
If you want to have fun and save money💰,⭕️ the first task is: get up early! Get up earlier! Get up earlier! Remember? You will regret it if you arrive late.
First, check the opening time. For example, if the park opens at 9 o'clock, then arrive at 7:30, because it usually opens 1 hour in advance. When the door opens, don't queue up to buy tickets stupidly🤦♀️, rush with everyone🏃🏃🏃, and quickly move to Mario Park, because speed is king. Whether the start is smooth or not will directly determine your good luck for the day🧚♀️!
🎮 Should I buy a bracelet? 🎮
If you come here for Nintendo Mario, don't hesitate👌, the bracelet is a must. Without the bracelet, you will not be able to participate in many small games in the park. It is fastest to buy it at the store at the entrance of the park. 4200 yen/piece (about 210 yuan) can specify the color, prepare the change in advance, save time and effort.
⭕️Please note here that the bracelet can only be used in the usj Mario park. Sisters who have only come once recently are not very cost-effective for more than 200. In order to save💰! We can also rent a bracelet and exchange it before entering the park. It is 50rnb/day. You can take pictures and play games. It is beautiful when you rent it! 💰💳 >>> If you need, click the link below for consultation! <<<
🍄 Tied Ticket 🍄
If there are not many tourists on the day, you may not need a tied ticket. You can bind your ticket first, and then swipe it again later to get a tied ticket for the afternoon time period, so that you can enjoy the fun of the second swipe. However, even if the tied ticket time exceeds, don't worry too much, you can generally still enter the park. 🕒🎟
🌟 Order of Visiting the Park 🌟
As soon as you enter the park, don't waste time taking pictures. Rush to Mario Kart immediately, then experience Yoshi's adventure, tour the entire park, and finally have time to experience the bracelet challenge. Starting with Mario will determine how happy you are for the day! 🚗🍄🌟
☕ Kinopio Cafe ☕
Usually, the restaurant will issue tied tickets after nine o'clock. You can line up in advance to get them, and the waiting time will not be too long. The line will be faster if you eat at off-peak hours. You can choose the food according to your personal taste, and you will generally not be disappointed. Mushroom soup and hamburgers taste quite good. But be aware that you cannot take the mushroom bowl away! 🍔🍄☕
📸 Photo Tips 📸
Try to book a second Mario photo session at 15:00. At that time, the light is not so bright and there are not so many people. Those who want to take photos can do so. 🌅📷🌈
⭕️Of course, photo props must be arranged! Mario hats, star barrels, bracelets, and dolls are essential! They are all sold in the park, and of course they can be rented. If you don’t know how to rent, you can contact me! Universal Studios Japan

There are also various kinds of oden in Japan. In short, there is nothing they can't cook, except what you can't imagine. I really like Japanese eggs, and theirs is the same. The eggs are called tamagoyaki and taste completely different from what we eat in China.
Before coming here, I thought that Japanese characters are very similar to Chinese characters, so I would definitely be able to understand them. But when I saw the menu they posted, I was confused. Fortunately, I saw what other people were eating and I knew it was an oden restaurant. The taste was really good.

I've heard from friends who often travel to Japan that the crab doroki at the Dotonbori main store is the best. I tried the Chinese branch last time and felt that the food quality of this branch was better than that of the Chinese branch. Last time, I had many travel companions, so I had my own private room. This time, there were only two of us, and we were seated on the tatami near the window, so we could enjoy the riverside scenery and fresh crabs along the way. The clerk downstairs was very enthusiastic. When he saw my eyes lingering on the child's hat for a few seconds, he chased after me and wanted to give me the hat. Will come again next time~
I heard that it was hard to make a reservation, but I was lucky enough to get a seat right away, perhaps because I went at 5 o'clock. It was served neatly as a course, and the price wasn't bad considering the set meal or the seat. It was a course of 50,000-60,000 won per person. My parents who went with me were also satisfied. I always saw the sign, but it was nice to eat it directly.

Verified user reviews
I bought it with the intention of giving it a try [sad face] I found that there are no delicious souvenirs in Kyushu. I didn’t remember anything about the famous Hakata Dorimon after eating it. Fukutaro Akebi, which used to be one of the best in my heart, felt that it was just so-so after trying all the flavors this time. And since I found that the same manufacturer also produced similar regional specialties in Hokkien, and they were quite delicious, I [sad face]
There is so little souvenirs in the desert that I almost bought a lot of them in excitement when I returned to New Chitose [sad face]
Oh, but the Nagasaki cake of Fukusaya that I ate on the plane today was okay and too exquisite. It came in a cube box with two pieces and a foldable knife and fork. No wonder it is still on the list everywhere despite its small product line and low cost performance.
Fukutaro is located at ChuoSennichimae 2-3-17 542-0074, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture. I have eaten many Okonomiyaki restaurants, but this is the first time I have eaten Okonomiyaki with both sides fried to a crispy texture. I ordered 2 flavors of green onion and seafood. I prefer the green onion flavor, which is less salty. I suggest you go early to register your name and wait for your name to be called before taking a seat.

Harry Potter's Three Broomsticks, located in Universal Studios Osaka, mainly serves various barbecue dishes, similar to the style in Universal Studios in the United States. I bought a non-alcoholic butter beer. I always have to buy a glass when I come here~
Western food is all mass-produced, I think it's average, beef is the kids' favorite, the 100% apple and orange juice on the menu is not what I think, I don't know what they mean by "pure".
There are no more choices in Universal Studios, you have to accept it in order to play there.

Highlights:
Ten years of refined craft. Handcrafted coffee. Savor the art of slow roasting.
Verified user reviews
LiLo Coffee Roasters is a top 50 coffee shop. I came here to try it. The shop is not big and there are seats outside. The coffee was delivered after the order was placed. The boss also gave me a card and said that the person on the card was him. He was the boss. Balabala~
I ordered Guatemala + espresso blend, both were delicious. The coffee flavor was strong and clean. Not bad~ I also bought a bag of coffee beans after drinking good coffee~
Pink and white house, green lounge chairs, green plant market in the corner, cactus growing very well, many flowers have bloomed, and the environment is also suitable for filming. I am afraid that the gangsters are educated, no, I am afraid that the Internet celebrity shop has something.
The store has an overseas atmosphere, spacious and transparent, with simple tables and chairs scattered among the green plants. There are also birds flying in, dancing on the cement floor to the BGM of the store.
The coffee is roasted in-house, and the packaging of coffee beans is trendy and young.
Today's cold brew is processed with Ethiopian honey, and the refreshing taste is very suitable for summer. One mouthful after another, the cup is empty soon.
There are hot dogs and hamburgers for food, and my partner and I each chose a hot dog. My friend doesn't like this kind of food, and she commented that "I finished it and didn't want to scold it." It's just that there is really not much difference between the two hot dogs.
Although it is the skin of an Internet celebrity store, it has a delicious soul. I am a little frivolous, I apologize.
Next time I come, I will bring a bag of beans home.

Japanese izakaya-style layout, charcoal-grilled Japanese yakitori that's tender and juicy
Verified user reviews
A very good Yakitori restaurant! I found one randomly after walking around Shinsaibashi. The atmosphere is great and there are many Japanese diners.
Osaka food and drink record! The prices are so touching!
This year, I went to Japan three times and South Korea twice on weekends. I find that Osaka's food is really cost-effective! I still remember that I thought the prices were so high when I first came to Japan many years ago, but now I feel it's cheaper every time I go. I don't know if it's because my consumption concept has changed or because I'm better at making travel plans. Especially compared to South Korea next door (the price increase in South Korea this year is really outrageous).
★ Food recommendation Mel Coffee
Highly recommended, the best coffee in Japan.
2 Namba Meat Theater
Cheap and delicious, very meaty. The machine can speak Chinese.

The pudding is delicious, recommended!
RedRock beef rice is delicious, ice cream is available when passing by during 721. Eatable
Unagi Kushiyaki lzumo
This is too much, table fee is 300/person, and each person must order a drink and a meal. The taste is very ordinary.
⑧Bifuteki heavy meat rice & DELI ロマン亭あベの店 steak rice is OK
Shinsaibashi wagyu sandwich is average, cheaper than Beijing.
10Yakiniku Goen Tamatsukur(玉造)
A very local yakiniku restaurant, not very easy to communicate, yakiniku is OK.
Itamae-Yakiniku Itto (Higashishinsaibashi honkan) Itamae yakiniku Ito yakiniku is OK. Antico Coffee
3 Naruto Taiyaki Honpo (Awaza Station)4 KUKURU Takoyaki 5 Kogaroku Takoyaki Boju
Dinner is a bit expensive, about 1k per person, but the sukiyaki is pretty good. It's cost-effective if you go there at noon. Manryo

Polaris, this restaurant is located in Shinsaibashi, the most prosperous and lively area in Osaka. The business here is extremely good, it can be said to be very popular. The omelette rice and fried food here are super delicious.
My friend and I ordered a small omurice, which came with a few slices of fried chicken and a small salad. The omurice was really good, with a delicious tomato sauce on top. The fried chicken was crispy and juicy. I will definitely come back to this place whenever I am in Osaka again.

Mel Coffee Roasters I continue to collect coffee shops. It was raining and cold when I came. I stood in line for more than 50 minutes. I was a little disappointed.
Seasonal hand-brewed coffee
Hand-brewed Ethiopian coffee
Both cups were OK, not amazing, just ordinary and delicious. It's not worth waiting for so long. The coffee was good and the name was wrong... I heard that this store will open a store in Shanghai this year. I'm afraid it can't keep up with Shanghai Coffee Roll at this speed.
A very popular shop online, the Kenyan hand brewing is super nice, recommended
