Founded in 1848, we are the 8th generation of the Ebisubashisuji family in Osaka, celebrating 178 years of dedicated kelp business. The taste of handmade oboro kelp and tororo kelp made by kelp craftsmen using "natural kelp" that supports Osaka's dashi soup stock culture is exceptional. (https://www.ogurakonbu.co.jp/)

Founded in 1815, the seventh generation of the Dotonbori Imai family reemerged from the theatrical teahouse "Inatake" to the "Imai Music Store" and then to a soba and udon restaurant after the war. The restaurant is famous for its "udon" and also popular for its beautiful kaiseki cuisine and seasonal boxed lunches, and was the model for the NHK morning serial "Ocho-yan".(http://www.d-imai.com/)
