A local would say...

Osaka's century-old kitchen — 600 metres of fresh fish, grilled wagyu, and uni that chefs and visitors alike devour on the spot.

For over a century, this 600-metre-long covered market has been where Osaka's chefs and home cooks come for the freshest fish, meat, produce, and pickles. In recent years, vendors have set up grills and sushi counters that make it excellent for grazing: you can eat your way from one end to the other, sampling grilled oysters, fresh uni, and thick cuts of wagyu. Come hungry, go slowly, and let the vendors' calls and the sizzle of grills guide your choices.
