Recommended Unique Gourmet and Sweets in Amemura, Japan 🐙🍦
Shinsaibashi Amerikamura (Amemura) is Osaka’s youth culture center.
The city is always full of energy, and there are many shops that catch the heart of young people who love unusual things.
And food is no exception.
There are a lot of unique and delicious food, and it is a very popular area to eat around.
Takoyaki, the soul food of Osaka, and rare sweets that can only be eaten here are also available.
If you go to Amemura, I’d like to introduce you to some delicious food that you should check out.
Kogaryu Takoyaki
Speaking of Osaka, Takoyaki is the best. You can’t fully enjoy Osaka without eating this.
Amemura has the best takoyaki shop Kogaryu.
It is a long-established shop located in a place close to Sankaku Park, the center of Amemura. It is one of the famous takoyaki shops in Osaka that is often covered by the media.
The sauce has a sweet flavor that goes well with takoyaki, and it hasn’t changed since the establishment.
Mayonnaise is specially prepared at the shop so that you won’t get tired of it even if you put a lot of it. Aonori (green laver) is made in Japan, and Katsuobushi (bonito flakes) are made with plenty of Hanagatsuo.
The octopus is carefully selected and fresh, and it is lightly grilled over high heat in advance, so the texture when you eat it is very good.
In addition to the basic sauce, there are also green onion & ponzu, black pepper & mayonnaise, and there is a wide variety.
I also recommend Takosen which is takoyaki sandwiched between sweet and spicy rice crackers.

There is an eat-in space in the shop, so when you are tired, sit down and eat delicious Takoyaki
TOTTI CANDY FACTORY
Amemura, which continues to attract the attention of young people, has several pop sweets shops.
One of them is TOTTI CANDY FACTORY.
The very large cotton candy with lovely colorful coloring and the cake pop that tickles girls’ hearts are popular. Cute sweets are also sold by measure.
The atmosphere of the shop that catches the heart of a girl who likes cute things will make you feel better just by entering!
Cotton candy is full of fantasy items such as three-color candies with a choice of flavors and heart-shaped candies.
And the size is big enough for impact. It’s about the size of a big hat. We are a little excited that we can eat such a big cotton candy even after we grow up.
There are various kinds of sweets sold by weight such as colorful chocolate and Ramune sweets. You need to be careful not to take them too much.
It’s good as a souvenir for yourself and also good as a gift for friends.
Long Softcream
Amemura’s signature ice cream is 40 cm long.
It looks like it will collapse while eating, but the trick is to hold it as vertically as possible when eating.
It’s light and not too sweet, so it’s very easy to eat. In addition to the standard vanilla, chocolate and mixed flavors, seasonal flavors are available.
Anyway, this soft ice cream has a big impact. If you buy this soft ice cream and take a commemorative photo in front of the store, it will become a hot topic among your friends.
Ice Dog
This is the original ice dog shop near Sankaku Park.
The ice dog, which is very popular among young people gathered in Amemura, is a mysterious sweet with ice cream sandwiched between freshly fried hot bread.
The soft ice cream is sandwiched in the bread, making it easy to eat. It has a rich taste made by mixing Hokkaido milk and fresh cream well. You can also eat it on top of a regular corn.
The bread is fried after ordering, so it’s not sticky but crispy.
There are chocolate, Uji Matcha and mixed flavors, so you may not know which one to choose.
In addition, there are various walking menus such as tapioca juice, cream melon squash, and fried potato sticks.
Also, you can add toppings to all menus, so it sounds fun to try your own original menu.
Melonpan Ice
This is a melon bread ice shop where you can enjoy ice cream and melon bread at once.
The store’s name means “The world’s second most delicious freshly baked melon bread ice cream".
However, this melon bread ice cream is so good that I think you can say “the best in the world".
Melon bread in particular is carefully baked in the shop, so it always smells good in front of the shop, and you can eat freshly baked and crispy melon bread.
The ice cream has flavors such as vanilla and marble chocolate. Check out the limited-time flavors.
You can also order just melon bread and take it home. There is a lot of ice cream in it, so it’s perfect for a hot day.
Luxurious sweets that you can enjoy the crunchiness of melon bread and the smoothness of ice cream together.
Jipan-e Ice
As you can see in the picture, this ice cream has a strange shape. It was originally a popular sweet in Korea, and Jipan-e means a cane in Korean.
Certainly, the part of snacks looks like the handle of a cane. This is made from corn.
It’s hollow inside and it’s filled with ice cream.
Compared to regular soft ice cream, it’s easier to eat because you don’t have to worry about it melting from the bottom.
There is a shop near Sankaku Park, so you can buy it without getting lost.
