KUROMON MARKET is popular as a sightseeing spot. Every day, many people are visiting there. Of cause, the purpose is eating delicious food.

Needless to say, it’s a place that you can buy various kinds of foods and souvenirs. It has a history of about 200 years, and thanks to the high quality ingredients there, Osaka has been keeping its reputation-called “Capital of gourmet”.

It’s appreciated as a treasure place for gourmet by tourists and by Osaka locals, too. This time, let me introduce the recommendations focused on seafood!

Minami:Talking of Osaka, you can’t miss FUGU (puffers)! This shop is for eating fresh Fugu.

As it’s a Fugu specialty shop having a lot of kinds selection, you can enjoy high quality Fugu dishes with lower price.

The staff here are kind and cheerful. They gave us the explanation about not only Fugu but information of other shops!

The popular menu is KARAAGE (deep-flied Fugu). Although Fugu is usually being served “Nabe“ or “Sashimi”, at this shop, you can enjoy deep-fried fresh Fugu.

It’s also good as snacks while walking. As being sold out so quickly, you should visit there in the morning.

You shouldn’t miss “Fugu-sashi” (sliced raw Fugu). The sliced Fugu looks like petals, the beautiful looks make us feel craftsmanship by the licensed chef.

Flesh “Fugu-sashi” is served at the shop as the puffers are swimming in the water tank just before being cooked. (Fugu-sashi:1,700~2,500Yen ※The price varies depending on the year.)

Uomaru Shoten:Japanese people really love raw tuna! This is a special store dealing with Pacific blue-fin tuna.

The shop has good reputations of the freshness and quality. It’s a special shop for specialists like Sushi-chiefs, etc.

The shop is also selling tuna even small quantity packs for households. The selected tuna is so delicious that amateurs like me can feel the difference.

The characteristic of “Otoro” blue-fin fatty tuna (fattest part of the abdomen) is its melty fat.

Its fatty part tastes sweet and not greasy though. (Otoro Sashimi:1,300Yen)

“Kama Toro”(part of the abdomen adjacent to gills) is popular, too. It might be fun to try the both. Maybe you can enjoy the differences of the tastes. (Kama Toro Sashimi:1,500Yen)

If you don’t care about the looks and parts, I recommend that you should buy some shaved tunas, which come out when tunas are sliced and shaped. (shaved blue-fin tuna:800Yen) Of cause, the shaved tunas have the same level of freshness and taste.

※The price varies depending on the year.
