MK Guide Recommends
Hidden in a basement on Kitashinchi’s quieter edge, Kushikatsu Bon feels like uncovering a shrine to Osaka’s golden-battered soul. Here, chef Otani and his team present a “STOP-style” omakase of 16–20 skewers—each an orchestrated moment of flavor, drawn from Chateaubriand, foie gras, elite seafood, and high-grade produce. The hush of the counter, soft glow of copper fryer pots, and restraint of the fry weave ritual into simplicity. A feast that grows—only ending when you say “stop”—and carries the quiet thrill of discovery.
