Charcoal-grilled marinated beef and offal eaten table-side, the canonical Korean-Japanese Osaka meal. The Tsuruhashi district has the country's densest concentration of family-run yakiniku rooms.
Tsuruhashi grew up around Osaka's Korean diaspora after the 1923 Kanto earthquake displaced workers and again after 1945. The black-market food stalls under the JR rail line became a permanent Korean-Japanese quarter; yakiniku as a sit-down genre was formalised here in the 1950s. The Tsuruhashi tradition keeps the meat lightly marinated and the offal varieties wider than the Tokyo branches that followed.
