What the guides say about Okonomiyaki Mizuno
The canal is the draw. Walk the Tonbori Riverwalk, about 600 m of promenade, then see the Glico Sign beside Ebisu Bridge. For food, Kushikatsu Daruma Dotonbori fries skewers at the counter, Dotonbori Imai Honten serves udon, and Okonomiyaki Mizuno makes okonomiyaki. Behind the canal, Hozenji Temple has a moss-covered Fudo statue that visitors splash with water. The Dotonbori Konamon Museum has a wax takoyaki class on its third floor.
Namba is the pick for a first trip. Dotonbori's canal strip is a short walk, and the covered streets and arcades of Minami sit around it. Dotonbori Imai Honten has been serving udon since 1946, and Okonomiyaki Mizuno has run for more than 70 years. Namba Parks and Takashimaya Osaka are over the station when it rains.
