Osaka Street Scenes

If you want one of these, I can tell you where to get one!!

We had read about some very dedicated Osaka chefs travelling to Italy to learn their cuisine and so we headed out to find some Italian food for a change… easier said than done.

Long story short, we never did find Italian in the middle of freaking Osaka lol and after a while we were despairing of finding any dinner places open whatsoever but we were finally allowed into a Chinese restaurant… it was actually pretty good!

We ordered Peking Duck (well it’s a Chinese place, right?) but it was truly mystifying… it arrived as a floppy tortilla, plus a styrofoam chip, some weeds, with no recognizable duck to be found anywhere

Start of Peking Duck!

Maybe they felt pity on us, because they served us this dish next, which was amazing—whatever it was lol
