ITADAKI-MASU (bon apetit!) Let the eating marathon begin Kevin quickly discovers a place serving fantastic street food cheap GYOZA! (dumplings) but what's Osaka Gyoza? Not too sure what this is all I've never heard this OSAKA DUMPLING before well the most important difference is that it's made in Osaka of course that makes it better. Each Gyoza Dumpllings is made fast. they also make a lot of them DOTONBORI can get crowded and customer start lining up before dark especially on a Friday night they need a big pile up of GYOZA to keep every customer happy until closing. 6 GYOZA for 200yen that's a steal!! "TARE" sauce is available inside with chopsticks eat inside or out. At DOTONBORI, its all good oh yeah! hot, real hot! DOTONBORI is like an amusement park of food Iits over-the-top amazing You could smell it!! food !!! DOTONBORI, yeah! my mission here was to find OSAKA's most popular Street snack You never know what you're going to find on the way.Like this character oh! takoyaki! C'mon! TAKOYAKI! This is TAKOYAKI, probably the most famous street food in all of Japan done best in Osaka. Making TAKOYAKI requires a lot of movements left speed it up Batter, octopus tentacle bits, TEMPURA bits, green NEGI (onions) and a little red ginger add some color to it all! It takes 10 to 15 minutes to make each one so you have to prepare a lot of them. Keep turning those gas grills are hot even at normal speed the hand movements are fast I don't know about you but I'm getting hungry the basic TAKOYAKI is only 450yen It's steaming hot it's a good idea to wait a few minutes before taking a bite make sure you have some water with you to put out those flames if not, be prepared to suffer the consequences Oh ha ha hot! each one has Octopus. It wouldn't be TAKOYAKI without it this shop has several ways to prepare it like this half boiled egg with green NEGI(onion) smothered in mayonaise and sauce it's the most popular and the most bizarre The taste, pure awesomeness See that big moving crab? it's for KANI DORAKU a popular restaurant chain with the shop right by Evisu Bashi (bridge) you can smell the sea food grilling check that out oh wow, it's got that char-coal taste crab legs, chopsticks it's a real challenge. what else they got? KANI MISO or crab brains for 500 yen YUM It's got that flavor from the sea It's a little matured time for those brains to meet Davey's locker down the hatch all of it kevin has found another popular food KUSHI-KATSU! Oh hey, here's an OSAKA especially you gotta try he orders from the menu below the register.Prices in red for each stick order a bunch of them KUSHI KATSU is skewered dipped in batter, breaded and then deep fried each one costs between eighty and 200 yen so here in osaka what we doing here, we dip our KUSHI-KATSU in sauce, but there is a big rule only dip once two times, AKAN!(not allowed) A bin of sauce is always on the table or near the register. It's the final flavor to bring the KUSHI-KATSU into perfection the perfect ending to the afternoon KUSHI-KATSU on DOTONBORI the whole NAMBA area is loaded with street stands so there's really no end in sight to this food paradise DOTONBORI is a place to bust your gut if it's not enough just keep going and make sure you wear elastic pants you're gonna need it
