The main store of Fukutaro is considered to be a must-try in Osaka. This is a great place to try okonomiyaki, a pancake-like dish often topped with meat, fish, vegetables and a corresponding sauce to accompany it such as aonori or Japanese mayonnaise. There are numerous variations to choose from and if you can't decide, there is the grill-it-yourself option which is always fun.

Dining
Due to its fertile land and close proximity to the sea, Osaka has always produced copious amounts of delicious, fresh ingredients. A particularly popular dish in Osaka is "Okonomiyaki", a Japanese-style pancake that often comes with a combination of meat, seafood or vegetables and is covered in one of many tasty sauces to accompany it. Take a seat in an Izakaya, (the Japanese version of a pub) and try "Takoyaki" – balls of fried wheat batter containing octopus.
