Uncle Rikuro’s Freshly Baked Cheesecake

A cheesecake that everyone in Osaka knows for its irresistible airy, and fluffy texture.

4 Sep 2026 See More

Osaka's extremely popular Uncle Rikuro's Cheesecake is known for its incredibly soft, soufflé-like texture. Fresh out of the oven, it's light and fluffy and melts in your mouth, with a rich egg flavor and a subtle milky aroma, without feeling heavy at all. The bottom is filled with slightly sweet-and-tart rum-soaked raisins, which cleverly cut through the richness and add another layer of flavor.

Besides eating it hot and fresh, you can also chill it for a firmer, smoother texture and a different taste. A 6-inch cake costs only around JPY 1,000, making it an excellent value and definitely a classic treat you shouldn't miss!

At Tempozan, besides riding the giant Ferris wheel, you shouldn't miss the nearby Tempozan Marketplace! The whole mall has a lively and fun atmosphere, with all kinds of restaurants, souvenir shops, and unique little stores to explore!
Tempozan Ferris wheel

With a height of 112.5 meters and a diameter of 100 meters, this is one of the world's largest Ferris wheels, lasting about 15 minutes per lap. On a clear day you can see as far as Mount Ikoma in Nara Prefecture to the east, the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge in Hyogo Prefecture to the west, Kansai International Airport to the south, and Mount Rokko in Hyogo Prefecture to the north. While you are here in Osaka, you can feel as if you are taking a round trip around the Kansai area.

This Ferris wheel is such an iconic landmark! As the cabin slowly rises, the view of Osaka Bay gradually unfolds before your eyes. Seeing it from up high really feels different.

Sitting in the air-conditioned cabin and leisurely enjoying the scenery outside makes the whole ride very relaxing.

Of course, when in Osaka, you have to try the famous omurice. Hokkyokusei has the strong atmosphere of a long-established Japanese restaurant, and just sitting down makes you feel like you're about to enjoy traditional Osaka cuisine.

The signature omurice looks simple, with a golden egg wrapping fragrant fried rice. It's smooth and tender, and the sweet-and-sour sauce gives it just the right flavor without being too rich!
