About 50 stores are lined up in a 150-meter-long arcade. As the name "Doguya-suji" suggests, the stores sell only the tools that support Osaka's food culture, ranging from kitchen equipment used by professionals to tableware for the general public.
Among these, the quality of the knives that Japanese craftsmen have painstakingly finished to an exceptional level of sharpness is outstanding.
Even foreign chefs go out of their way to come here in search of these knives, and you are sure to find one that suits your purpose from the wide repertoire of knives made by a variety of manufacturers.
Food samples, which are attracting attention as a uniquely Japanese culture, are also gaining popularity, and it is surprising how well they are reproduced, so much so that one could almost mistake them for the real thing.
Food samples processed into accessories and keychains are ideal as souvenirs.
Some stores also offer workshops for making food samples.
