or should I say awesome food! Yesterday I went to Osaka, found a tiny, yet awesome, restaurant called “Shanghai Bar” (上海), because I wanted to try the local speciality called “supon” (スポン). It’s like a complete lunch made out of a complete turtle. It was sooooo goood! First you start with a shot of raw blood mixed with wine (supposedly enhances your stamina). Then the raw heart sliced and served in sashimi (yummi), then the testicles (tiny but interesting texture), and finally the whole turtle and the meat it contains in a nabe (鍋), like a kettle with soup and veggies. Was just amazingly good!
Today, I decided to try a variety of fatty beef called sanda wagyu (三田和牛). Mmmmh, amazing texture, a pure delicacy. Of course for 30$ for a tiny steak of 200 grams.
That’s it, the whole point of this post is just to make you salivate. And to let you know about shanghai bar in Osaka, hard to find but worth it, and it’s just 5 min walk from Namba station.
