A treasure trove of deeply flavorful home cooking in the ancient city of Osaka

A warm izakaya nestled in the old-fashioned townscape

In the old-fashioned alleyways of Yodogawa-ku, Osaka City, there is a quaint izakaya called "Tsumugi". The camellia trees planted along the wall further enhance the Japanese-style appearance of the shop. This long-established shop of over 50 years exudes the charm of homey and nostalgic flavors.

Preserving the tradition of traditional home cooking from generation to generation

"Tsumugi" cherishes the taste of traditional Osaka home cooking passed down from generation to generation. It prides itself on carefully selecting seasonal ingredients and maximizing the natural flavors of the ingredients. Guests can also experience the warm personalities of the shop owners, making them feel as if they have returned to their own homes.

Exquisite dishes include:

• Saikyo-grilled white fish: Uniquely seasoned by the shop owners, perfectly grilled
• Handmade tsukune (meatballs): Simple yet profound flavors
• Pumpkin salad: A popular menu item with many repeat customers

The taste of home born from Osaka's kitchen

In Osaka, there are still many traditional izakayas. However, there is no other shop that cherishes home-cooked flavors as much as "Tsumugi" does. Stepping into the shop, one might feel as if they have returned to the nostalgic kitchen of their own home, where they can truly relax and feel comfortable.

A hideaway for adults to enjoy leisurely time

Despite its small and quaint appearance, "Tsumugi" also offers private rooms. It is ideal for important business entertainment or dining occasions. While enjoying the style of an izakaya with great food and drinks, one can also experience the atmosphere of an adult hideaway in the comfortable private room.

Feeling the atmosphere of each season throughout the year

Special mention goes to the seasonal dishes made with fragrant Kyoto vegetables. During the green season, the tempura made from vegetables harvested in Kyoto is exquisite. In the summer, guests can savor dishes such as eel and refreshing appetizers as seasonal delicacies. In the autumn, there is mixed rice made with new rice. With the arrival of winter, the oden served is perfect for warming up on cold nights.

The coexistence of the convenience of being close to the station and the quiet atmosphere of the back alley

"Tsumugi" is conveniently located just a 3-minute walk from the nearest Nishi-Sanjo Station. However, the shop is situated in a quiet alley, enveloped in an atmosphere that makes one forget the hustle and bustle. The oasis-like comfort might be the reason why it continues to attract repeat customers.
