Located in the Sonezaki area, which is home to one of Umeda's most bustling districts and the famous "Tsuyunoten Shrine" known for granting romantic wishes. The store was established more than 70 years ago and is renowned as a leading kushikatsu specialty store in Osaka.

Their kushikatsu is light and fluffy to the taste, featuring ingredients like shrimp and pork, in addition to seasonal delicacies from both mountains and seas. Spring brings bamboo shoots, summer introduces sweetfish, and during the colder months, pufferfish and crab make an appearance, offering a taste of luxury.

The dedication to the cooking process is evident everywhere. The breaded coating uses specially-ordered fine breadcrumbs, thinly applied, and the key is frying them crisply in a copper pot with excellent heat conduction. Furthermore, once cooked, the skewers are spun to use centrifugal force to shake off excess oil, a technique that has been meticulously handed down through the years.

For flavoring, one can enjoy the kushikatsu with accompanying sauces such as ponzu, salt, and soy sauce with broth. Particularly noteworthy are the rich Worcestershire sauce and the spicy hot sauce, both original blends that offer intricate flavors. Relish the time-honored taste in a refined space with a calming ambiance.
