Dotonbori Ichimizen (道頓堀一味禅) – best tempura udon we discovered (How to go and what to expect)

While walking after we had lunch at Yakiniku Matsusaka Dotonbori, I noticed a restaurant serving Tempura dishes.

During the same day, we were thinking of where we can have dinner that is close to our hotel. So, I asked my dad if he wanted to try the Tempura restaurant that I saw, and he said yes.

Guess what.

It was one of the best decisions we made because their Tempura udon was THE BOMB. We even ate here twice!

How to go:

A. Coming from Yakiniku Matsusaka Dotonbori

Since we went back for a second round, I was able to ask my dad to take a photo of me HAHAHA

The Tempura udon at Dotonbori Ichimizen was definitely perfect for the cold weather.

I definitely will recommend this place!!
