Kushiyakitei in Namba, Osaka

Kuwayaki

It turns out there's a style of cooking that originated here in Osaka called kuwayaki, with farmers using their hoes as metal platters to cook their food on while they were in the fields. And this restaurant is known for serving this style of food (5 Chome−1−18 Namba, 050-5870-0261). Big teppan grills are used instead of hoes now, so these kushiyaki-like skewers were done like teppanyaki. It wasn't anything that different from a taste perspective. But this place used quality products, including everything from the prawns to tsukune to konnyaku, not to mention wagyu. It was a convenient place to get local food in a nice setting at a decent price.
