A Final Meal at Kuidaore

Posted on 13. Apr, 2008 @ 10:22 pm by in Food, Osaka Views: 683

Well, I decided to eat at Kuidaore one last time, considering the fact that they’re closing in July.There were even more people than usual snapping shots of the doll this Saturday night. So many cameras…The sign announces that they will be closing July 8th.This is what it feels like to be famous. No escape from the Paparazzi onslaught.The food actually isn’t very good at all. At least, in the “Western” section. The 1st floor is Western, and they have other floors for other types of food, including noodles, and I believe sushi “hot pot” (なべ) and whatnot.Omu-rice.This is funny. Takoyaki-gratin. My wife described the tastes as…. “regular takoyaki are better”.I agree.We got this awesome pack of free tissue that says, THANKS from Kuidaore. I guess if you’re going under, you can’t afford to give out much more than tissue huh.And that’s a wrap.- Harvey

    I think a good general rule of thumb is to avoid “youshoku” at any decidedly Japanese style restaurant (Fujiya, any izakaya, etc.) whenever possible.

    That “Ura-kui-daore” place looked better for food like that.

    Perhaps you can swing by the restaurant Haabii and compare and contrast the food? I mean, as long as you keep your stinky pipe stowed away…

    judging by the crowd lining to snap a photo with that clown, I think they’d make more money taking souvenir photos instead of selling food. :D

    After seeing some of the plates of food, I can see why they are closing.

    The clown is hanging in there! He appeared on the Kohaku special tonight, in a yume no coraboreeshon alongside Jero.
