You should try Kushikatsu Tanaka!
It's a fun, casual izakaya chain famous for deep-fried skewers (kushikatsu) — a classic Osaka-style dish.
Both food and drinks are affordable, and there's even a game called Chinchirorin (dice game) where you might win a free drink! 🎲
I showed how to order and play the game in my video✨

I am visiting Japan soon and am excited to try izakayas! 🍢🍻 Questions: do customers need to pay "tip" or "gratuity" in addition to the food price? Is there tax, and if yes is it already included?
