This long covered arcade sells everything related to Osaka's principal passion: food. From bamboo steamers and lacquer miso bowls to shopfront lanterns and the specialty moulded hotplates for making tako-yaki, it's a deep dive into the material culture of a city built on eating. Even if you don't buy anything, the visual spectacle of hundreds of gleaming knives, ceramic bowls, and kitchen tools stacked to the ceiling is a feast for the eyes.
