The 38 Best Restaurants in Osaka, Japan | Eater
"Hajime Yoneda’s French-ish restaurant was awarded three Michelin stars soon after opening in 2008, and for good reason. The chef — who is also a painter — treats his plates like canvases for intricate dishes inspired by space and nature. For example, a slice of medium rare pigeon with swoops of wild arugula, pomegranate, and blackcurrant sauces evokes the sky. Hajime is most famous for Planet Earth, a plate featuring 110 vegetables arranged like swirling oceans and foamy clouds. Best for: An unforgettable four hour-long dinner to commemorate a special occasion such as a birthday, graduation, or anniversary." - La Carmina
