Pokemon Cafe requires advanced reservation and is usually full on the day the bookings are open. You can try your luck by walk-in. As my itinerary in Osaka may change constantly depending on weather/blooming conditions of flowers, I didn't book in advance but decided to try my luck by walk-in. We came around 9:30am at Daimaru. You can start queuing at the middle entrance of Daimaru (we were the 3rd group by then), which is the closest to the lifts. At 10am once it is open, you can take the lift to the 10th floor and take the escalators back to the 9th floor. There are 2 queues, those that have reserved and the walk-in. We were lucky to be able to join the first session by walk in(I guess not everyone was ready for lunch at 10am).Their menu is in their IPAD and only their seasonal items had a menu in paper form. The cafe as expected is all things Pokemon. The drinks and food came and they were totally adorable. I loved the Eevee burger and Eevee tea the most. Overall, it was slightly pricey(even for a themed restaurant) but then Pikachiu came up in his new clothes and it was definitely worth it to see him dance.If you choose to reserve and not walk-in, please remember to choose the seats closest to the performance site. You are not allowed to leave your seats or stand when the performance starts and your view might be obstructed by others if you are far away at the back. Most of pictures had lots of other customer in it and it was lucky I got 2 shots of him that were great.

Conan cafe is held around Japan and one of them was at Abeno Contact in Osaka. Several points you need to pay attention to. You must have a reservation at their official website, which requires you to set up an account. Please remember the username and password. Despite after you paid for the reservation and receiving the confirmation email, when you arrive at the restaurant, they cannot confirm your booking even if you show the email and you MUST login to their website to show your booking.As expected, the whole restaurant was decorated with Conan. When we go to these themed restaurants, of course we will order the food featuring our favorite character(mine is Ai). The food and drinks are quite good for the themed cafe. I loved the Ai Haibara dessert the most. Not only visually stunning, the details are amazing is in this dessert and only Ai's fans may know. The obvious is blueberries(blueberry jam is Ai's favorite and it is the closest fruit to have a purple color). One of the dessert has Ais favorite football player. Another dessert features peanut butter as well(Ai's favorite food is peanut butter and blueberry jelly sandwich). Definitely worth the visit for Conan lovers.

Our itinerary was very smooth and we had a day to spare today to do some shopping around Umeda. At lunch time, the restaurant will serve their famous large rice bowls and we came here to try it.The store opens at 11 and when we arrived around 1110am, there was already a queue and actually many stores here had a long queue already. We got a table around 1130am and ordered both their signature dishes. The fluffy omelet with eel rice was definitely stunning, in terms of both taste and appearances.  The eel is actually larger than that shown in the menu. The eel was really tender with the right amount of fat. The omelet as said was almost closed to airy. The rice was seasoned just right without being too salty.  My friend had the eel with beef and it was just as great. The eel was just as large but it got covered by the beef. No worries if you cannot finish the meal. They will kindly pack it into rice balls for you to take it back. However, due to my huge appetite and skipping breakfast, we finished them all(one of the few rare customers to do so).
Looking forward to try their other eel dishes as well.

We arrived here early around 5:30pm on a weekday so we were able to have dinner without reservations. By the time we left around 7:00pm, there was already a long queue so please reserve in advance if you don't want to wait.  We ordered one regular Okonomiyaki and also the heart shaped Okonomiyaki, which by translation should be called "Memories of Osaka". Of course besides the heart shape, there is more. Watching how the staff decorate the Okonomiyaki was really a lovely experience and it was definitely unique as even the date was written on it and they use two colors as well. I also love the taste a lot. The taste of some Okonomiyaki can be too strong but they definitely nailed down the taste here. The balance of the sauce and the mayonnaise for decoration was spot on. They have different types of Okonomiyaki and I am looking forward to trying them next time.

I was attracted by their parfaits though I have to say the ones last season were more attractive. However, the flavors of the new seasonal parfaits were just as stunning. I tried the melon parfait and the melon was really juicy and there were much more melons inside the parfait itself. They have kindly provide a plate for me to cut the melon after the photos.  The only thing you need to be careful is the melon's juice dribbing when you have this parfait as it was that juicy. My friend had the strawberry parfait. I had a scoop and the flavors were very rich. My friend said he thoroughly enjoyed his.Worth the 5 to 10 minute walk from the station to this cozy place.

This is definitely a nice place to rest a bit after a prolonged shopping spree. Their matcha chocolate seemed quite pretty so I gave it a try. The consistency is closer to a milkshake. The drink was very rich with the matcha being more predominant than the chocolate, which was a good thing for me as I didn't want the drink to be too sweet.  The pattern on the drink was also quite eye catching.

Visited this popular restaurant among tourist at Osaka in early April. I think we will never go wrong with crabs and Japanese food. I satisfied my craving for crab with a gyoten course at Kanidouraku. The grilled crab and crab rice were my picks, perfectly paired with a cold beer. Despite the slow pace of dish service, I left completely satisfied and full. The attentive service and well-established reputation left a positive impression. 喺四月初去咗大阪呢間遊客常光顧嘅餐廳。其實蟹同日本菜應該點都唔會難食。我哋揀咗蟹道樂嘅破曉套餐，我最鍾意燒蟹同蟹飯，同啤酒最夾。雖然上菜慢咗啲，但我食得好飽好滿足。店員服務幾好而且餐廳嘅口碑都唔錯，值得一試👍

來到淡路島必定要去的甜品店 雖然在日本其他地區也有很多分店 但這裏是它的總店 超多打咭位 景色無論在日與夜都十分漂亮 店內的座位不算很多 相比之下 戶外就較多 因為我們去的時候戶外十分大風和凍 祇有排隊進入店內 一進入就見兩部購票機 要自助下單 廚房採用透明玻璃窗 可以見到廚師忙碌地在工作 一覽無遺 pancake 造型漂亮 入口鬆軟 不知是否心理作用 感覺比香港店好吃很多呢

淡路島 只有自由行才會到的地方 網上搜尋 見到這店 便來一試 店面一點也不起眼 但原來樓上別有洞天 我們一行6人 要了每位5700日圓的套餐 包括魚生 天婦羅 現場燒烤的多款貝殼 即場製作的魷魚斧飯 食材新鮮 自然十分好味 服務員熱誠有禮 更可以用英文溝通 十分驚喜的一餐
