Our guide Bruce was very knowledgeable about the menus and the characteristics of each yakati and even back stories of the owners. It was a great evening.

We had a great time exploring the market with Hiro! It was interesting to learn about his "day job" and he took us to several great spots, including the basement of the department store where locals buy their lunches.
Only noting that we stopped at one store and were told everything should be fine for our dietary restrictions, but I checked ingredients when I got home and one sauce had beef & pork in it. We should definitely have checked and do not expect Hiro to know every ingredient in all the packaged goods in the market! Just advice to future travelers to translate everything!

it was absolutely amazing. Got a glimpse of okinawa not from a tourist's point of view but hopping from store to store like a local. Loved it.

A few days ago, we got to go on an awesome food tour by Keigo!
Being brand new to Osaka, we wanted to book something a little more laid back than the usual tours in the centre and we absolutely loved this tour. I will try not to spoil too much of what you'll have, but I will say that we had some of the best food the week we spent in Japan there. Not only that, but all 4 locations were unique and really cool, too! I would definitely book this tour again in a heartbeat!

This was a fun, accessible way to experience yatai in Fukuoka. Reasons to book this tour (in no particular order):
1. It takes the guess work out of choosing where and what to eat. Bruce takes you to the places he personally eats at, and orders the best items at each stall.
2. Variety. We must have sampled ten different dishes and everything was delicious. (You will leave full!)
3. Experiencing new foods with other travelers who enjoy food as much as you do is a lovely way to spend an evening.
4. Bruce is an attentive host, eager to share what Fukuoka's yatai scene has to offer.
In short, great host, great food, great experience. Highly recommend!

My wife and I were travelling around Japan for five weeks, and thought a food tour in Osaka would be a nice way to end our trip. This was definitely the best choice we could have ever made. The food choices were delicious and very generous portions- thankfully we were hungry . We loved the food locations we visited. These are places we would have missed on our own, especially our fourth and last destination- an absolutely beautiful spot . We loved both the atmosphere and the dessert. With just three people on this tour, we were able to experience a very enjoyable and intimate event. Our guide, Keigo was excellent!! He chose the food, the locations, and even made the best suggestions on which drinks to try. He was the perfect host who made this awesome food tour a highlight of our vacation!!

My family and I had an amazing time with Bruce. Even in the rain, he was able to create an experience that was one of the best we've had. Genuine, authentic, and generous. Highly recommend!

The Yatai tour with Bruce was amazing! We saw how a Yatai build-up works and experienced a big variety of amazing food at two stalls - Bruce explained everything concerning the different dishes we tried and was even so generous to give us some restauratant advice for our next stop in Japan! Thank you so much, the evening made a lasting impression and Bruce‘s enthusiasm for Yatais is definitely contagious!
