“Kuromon Ichiba” is popular among inbound visitors

Originally, Uranamba has long been home to Namba Grand Kagetsu, a sacred place for laughter, Kuromon Market and Doguya-suji, which support Osaka’s food culture, and the Misono Building, a haven for subcultures, etc. A little further north is the National Bunraku Theater, home of Bunraku puppet theater, and down south is Nipponbashi Ota Road, known as the Akihabara of Western Japan. This area is a deep area with a mix of shops, restaurants, and bars. The opening of new private stores one after another has made it the most exciting chaotic area in Japan.

People are attractive, everyone is an instant “team friend”.

Osaka’s food culture has developed over the years as the “City of Foodies” and “The Kitchen of the Nation”. Fresh ingredients are gathered from all over Japan, and chefs engage in friendly competition. That is why it is inexpensive and delicious! Delicious! are a matter of course. Rather than chasing trends, it is up to the merchants running restaurants in Osaka to bring smiles to customers’ faces by providing service and hospitality that cannot be found anywhere else.

Even in Osaka, the residents of Uranamba are unique. The personality of the young owner, whose motto is “Have fun drinking!” At Uranamba, which is a condensed version of Osaka, the city of human kindness, everyone instantly becomes a “team friend”.

Drinking from one place to the next, ladder to ladder is the best part.

Uranamba was created by young shopkeepers in the neighborhood. Because of this, the area has established its identity through horizontal connections among stores, and anyone who knows a shop in the area can say, “That store is really good!” “If you want that kind of food, you should go there!”, or “I’ll call them and see if they have any seats available”.

he greatest charm of Uranamba is that it would be a shame to end at just one restaurant. Since the area is lined with many small restaurants and bars, you can eat at the first place, and then go to the second place nearby and have fun. The third place where you heard at the first one…and so on.
