5.00Joseph was a great guide and really good company on his well thought out tour of small bars and family restaurants giving us a good feel for different local food and drink. Joseph also has some great background insights on the local pop culture as well as a rough history of the relationships between various Japanese cities. The range of food and drinks was great and we highly recommend Joseph as a guide.
Fun night out in Osaka
