Day 5- Osaka-10/25/2023

Sukiyaki Dinner and Coctails, Osaka

 

We left Kyoto mid day to take a 30 minutes train ride to Osaka.  The train system in Japan is really convenient.

We are fairly familiar with Osaka and I told Hoa that I wanted to have Sukiyaki tonight.  We been to this restaurant the last time and the food was pretty good.

We ordered and extra order of Premium sliced beef and a plate of assorted fresh vegetables.

I told Hoa, I remember they have really good Matcha tea ice cream and so we ordered some.

 

Perfect ending to a meal.

 

In front of the restaurant there is a bar at the end of the alley.  We went to this bar the last time we were in Osaka and we really like it so we are going back again.

 

Main Bar Spirits.

 

They have pata negra but we are too full to even have a taste.

 

I ordered a cosmopolitan and the bar tender is preparing and pouring it.
