Dotonburi Imai Honten
Googled to be known for Udon

Located along main Dotonburi, Imai Honten has a more humble/traditional facade both on its exterior and interior. It is located by Daiki Sushi (A relatively cheap carousel sushi joint that gets its fish fresh from the market's supplier).

Place for udon.
Kanonamba
Pieces of duck meat are lightly cooked in Imai’s special soup
and served with Udon in hot soup
Extra three topping set
 
*Hmmmm could do without the weird pan fried mochi toppings. Besides that, the soup is refreshing and the spice shaker actually adds a little citrus which is pleasant with the light broth. Only the tender and most flavourful curs were used which were a welcome.*
Total fed1: ¥1458
Tired of ramen and wanting to try Udon in a more traditional setting then Dotonbori Imai Hoten migght be for you.
Food 3/5
Ambience 3.5/5
Service 3/5
Value 3.5/5

Soup stock is refreshing. However the rest of udon and fresh leeks are pretty standard I felt Worth the try if looking for something other than Ramen.

Lapoppo Farm
Recommended by wing for sweet potato deserts.

Premium Mini ¥350
Mini sweet potato apple pie.

*Okay but not great. One of their signatures with a crusty exterior. The apple filling is a little tart and masks the sweet potato filling a bit. Nice but not wow. Unlike when trying the hokkaido cheese tarts.*

A chained establishment that specializes in all things sweet potato. Their other items looked good to try but were too much after a meal and for one to finish.
