Pablo is a café which specializes in cheese tarts, and there are a total of eight branches around Japan including Tokyo, Himeji and Osaka. The cheese tart served by Pablo has a soft, buttery crust and is filled with sweet cheese filling. You can pour berry sauce over it according to your preference, or even combine it with ice cream for a truly decadent experience.

Two different types of cheese tarts are available as souvenirs too—rare and medium. The rare cheese tart melts in your mouth, while the medium is well-baked and has a soft, spongy texture.

With several branches in Osaka, it's easy to go find the one nearest you!

The Shinsekai (literally "new world") area in Osaka is one of the best places to spend time, whether you're a local or a tourist. It's there you'll find Janjan Yokocho, where the streets are lined with various amusements such as retro cafés, sweets shop and arcades. Apart from savoring old-school Japanese sweets, you can also visit the arcades to compete with your friends at retro Japanese arcade games such as Smartball. Although the area is somewhat crowded, you're sure to find something matches your interests!

As the ultimate budget food, most of us have been hooked on instant noodles at some point in our lives. This now ubiquitous foodstuff was invented by Momofuku Ando, founder of Nissin, and since then instant noodles have been a crucial part of daily life in Japan and around the world. At the Instant Ramen Museum, various instant noodles from different times in history are on display. Not only that, you can get to make your own instant ramen at the “My CUPNOODLES Factory." Reservation is needed for the Chicken Ramen Factory so please refer to their official website.

Osaka Castle played a prominent role in some of Japan's most significant battles, and has a history of over 500 years. The castle has witnessed numerous sieges and wars, and is today one of the historical sites that represent Osaka. Various artifacts are on display in the Osaka Castle Museum, where you can learn about the history behind one of Japan’s greatest cities. Apart from its historical value, Osaka Castle is also a great place to enjoy Japan’s scenery, especially during spring when the cherry blossoms are blooming.

If you are visiting the Tenjinbashisuji District, then the Osaka Tenmangu Shrine is a must-visit! This historical shrine was built during mid-Heian Period (794 - 1185), and has been an important part of Osaka's culture for a long time. The main hall of Osaka Tenmangu Shrine was destroyed many times due to war and fire, but was reconstructed every time. If you happen to visit Osaka on July 24 - 25, you can also witness the Tenjin Festival—considered one of Japan’s top three festivals—which is always accompanied by beautiful fireworks.
