Shinsekai Kushikatsu Daruma

Right in the heart of Osaka’s Shinsekai!
I finally visited the “Kushikatsu Daruma Main Store,” the “holy land of kushikatsu” I had always wanted to go to 🐙🍢✨
This area, just near Tsutenkaku Tower, shines with lively neon lights and is full of that unmistakable Osaka vibe! Just walking around here is endlessly exciting 🎉

The famous “Kushikatsu Daruma” is a long-established shop founded in 1929.
Known for its “no double-dipping in the sauce” culture, it’s a beloved spot popular with both locals and tourists alike 🔥

🌟 Recommended skewers I ordered:
1️⃣ Beef Kushikatsu: A classic you absolutely can’t miss! The crispy, light batter and juicy meat are perfect 🥩
2️⃣ Shrimp: The plump texture and fragrant batter are irresistible 🍤
3️⃣ Red pickled ginger: Full of Osaka flavor and addictively tasty ❤️
4️⃣ Cheese chikuwa & quail egg: Trying unique varieties like these is so much fun 😋

The moment you dip the freshly fried, piping hot skewers into the special sauce and take a bite... pure happiness in your mouth!!
Enjoying kushikatsu at the counter while watching the chefs fry them, beer in hand, is the essence of Osaka gourmet 🍺✨
