We had such a great time with Kenzo! It helped having someone guide us into great food spots rather than wandering around wondering what to try. Our kids all enjoyed it too.

Fun way to try out Osaka street food! We did this with our teenage children so they were picky but our guide Tim was very accommodating and let us order more noodles when they liked it or swap items.

We had a super fun time on the Osaka street food tour! From the moment we met our guide at Ebisucho Station, everything was seamless. Tim was very knowledgeable about the local food scene and Osaka in general—it felt like exploring the neighborhood with a good friend. Highly recommend, especially if you’re new to Osaka street food and are not sure where to start.

Great food and great company! Our guide Kenzo gave us amazing insight into Osaka's culinary specialties as well as Japan's past and present. As someone living and working in Osaka for over 20 years, he honestly answered every question we threw at him. We left very full and pleased with the overall experience.
