GLORIOUS Japanese STREET FOOD Tour of Kuromon Market | Osaka, Japan

In January of 2019, I was hired to do a four-day job in Japan, but I knew I wanted to see more of the country, so I extended my trip to twelve days. I’m so glad I did, because in those twelve days, I got to visit incredible historical and cultural sites, natural wonders, observation decks with stunning views, and much more. And I had the pleasure of meeting some awesome people and eating some of the best food I’ve ever had in my life! Come along with me as I explore Japan!

On the afternoon of my first full day in Osaka, I wanted to get a taste of the city’s street food scene, so I headed out on an amazing tour with the wonderful people at Magical Tours! They offer lots of different types of tours in Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and Hiroshima, and employ locals to lead them, making for a fun and immersive experience. I couldn’t wait try some outstanding Japanese street food!

First, I met up with my Magical Trip guide, Yaeko, and the rest of our tour group at 11 a.m. in the Amza area of Osaka. From there, we walked to Kuromon Market, which has been around for roughly 200 years!

The first thing we went for was takoyaki, a type of fritter ball with pieces of octopus meat inside. At 500 Yen/$4.49 U.S. for eight pieces, it’s inexpensive! We got two orders, each of which was covered in two types of sauce and bonito flakes. They’re served steaming hot, so open them up and wait a bit so you don’t burn your tongue. They’re so chewy and delicious, though, sometimes it’s hard to wait!

The octopus is wonderful, and the inside of the fritter is almost like a bechamel sauce. The bonito flakes add a bit of texture. They were a little spicy and so yummy, and sweet as well as savory!

On our way through the market, we saw some succulent-looking sushi, some giant crab legs that were being charred with a blowtorch, and even some gigantic live eels!

Next were mochis and strawberries. The strawberries were super sweet and out of this world! The white and red one I had was phenomenal! The matcha mochi we then tried was bite-size and absolutely fantastic, and we had another with a sauce on it, which was incredibly sweet, but also so good!

Next was oden, or Japanese hotpot. Unlike Chinese hotpot, Japanese hotpot isn’t spicy. This kind had deep-fried tofu, fish cakes, konjac, tofu skin, and more. The tofu skin was amazing, and there was a thicker one with vegetables that was also really good. The fish cake was like a mix of tofu and fish and the konjac was dense and slimy. It wasn’t my favorite, but I loved the rest!

Next, we had tako tamago, or small, skewered grilled octopus stuffed with a quail egg. It was marinated in a slightly sweet sauce, was cooked perfectly, and had a wonderful texture. We followed that with grilled scallops in a soy butter sauce. It was like butter! The sauce was so phenomenal we had to drink it right out of the shell!

Then we shared some tempura eel. It was crispy and crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and the eel tasted more like fish. It was so good!

From there, we walked to a commercial area where you can buy utensils, souvenirs, pans for making takoyaki, dumpling steamers, and more! I bought some chopsticks for my daughters and for everyone in my family.

Wow, what an incredible street food tour of Kuromon Market! This Magical Trip walking food tour was such a fantastic way to try some of Osaka’s best street food with an amazing local guide. I have to thank Yaeko and Magical Tours for such an incredible afternoon.
