Kushikatsu Daruma Shinsekai Main Shop

The original Shinsekai shop of Osaka's most famous kushikatsu institution, with its trademark grumpy uncle statue admonishing diners not to double-dip their skewers into the shared sauce pots. Order a 13-piece Shinsekai set for an easy sampler of this Osakan classic and wash it down with draft beer or a whiskey highball. If there's a queue at the original outlet (and there usually is), there are two other Darumas right around the corner with the same food, more spacious seating, and less lines.
