Our first lunch in Osaka was at Hanaoka, where our guide brought us for a taste of local Japanese fare. After a long overnight flight, the anticipation for a comforting and authentic meal made this first stop all the more welcoming.

The sight of the set meal immediately whetted my appetite. Featuring a neatly presented unagi rice box glazed with a rich, savoury sauce, it was accompanied by crispy karaage chicken and a comforting bowl of chawanmushi. The meal was further complemented by simple sides of edamame, tofu, and pickles, offering a well-balanced and satisfying spread.
