Osaka

Last stop in Japan was to Osaka to see gaje in her new city!

with cutecute totoru!

Osaka is a city known it's unique foods and eateries. Unfortunately, time did not allow us to eat everything =( There are too few hours in a day and our stomachs are just too small. But, we did what we could. If we were not eating, or exploring the many little streets, we were shopping in Osaka. I mean, it was our last day in Japan...why not finish using all our yens?

Cute little chicky breads.

In front of the Glico man....still don't know why it's a must-do

Interesting manhole. Even a manhole looks all pretty and clean!

One of the busy streets in Tennojin

We're in Japan together!! How cool is that?!

And of course, our last meal in Japan....for this trip at least! Thanks to gaje, for both finding this place and for treating us, we were able to eat a delicious and very exclusive type of beef. Fancyyy! What seems to be a tiny hole in the wall, we struggled to even find the door to the restaurant. Randomly, a wooden door slides open and closes again without an invitation to enter so that the hostess could find our reservation.

The door startled her! lol

Once we were in, we were seated in a tiny booth which had a sliding bamboo curtain to provide privacy. The rest of the meal was absolutely delish! You can read more about what we ate and each cut of beef on Always Hungry's blog. So just as a teaser:

Yummmmm.....look at them shine

And that's our trip in Japan! It was a wonderful experience and definitely a place we'd like to visit again....there is just so much more to see (and eat!)!

Until next time Japan, you will stay as a unforgettable memory. =)
