This is a shop located in Grand Front Osaka. They have a variety of delicious products such as different types of soup stock, instant noodles, and tsukudani. I bought the reduced salt dashi ramen, consomme-style dashi, and dashi with grilled jawfish for souvenirs. The soup stock here always pleases people, so it's a reliable choice for a souvenir. The dashi ramen has a really tasty soup - it's truly flavorful. The noodles are also delicious, and I would love to try different flavors in the future.

I visited in March 2021. The location is on the basement floor of Grand Front Osaka. They were offering food samples again. I tried the bamboo shoot rice sample and it was delicious, so I purchased the bamboo shoot rice for 756 yen. I made it at home right away. The bamboo shoot and the seasoning were both delicious. I have tried various ones sold in supermarkets, but this was the most delicious one I have ever had. I highly recommend it.

【Umeda】Not just dashi, Chayonoya's "rice accompaniments" are delicious‼️ ~《Chayonoya》I went to Osaka with a friend to watch a movie this day. My friend recommended the rice accompaniments at Chayonoya, so we went to Grand Front. Chayonoya has a variety of dashi flavors, all of which are delicious, so it's my favorite.《Items purchased》○Ginger rice○Five kinds of mushroom mixed rice○Hinamatsuri chirashi sushi○Aosa miso soup○Umino nanakusa miso soupIt's great that you can taste various items before buying, and this time I also bought the "Hinamatsuri chirashi sushi" that tasted delicious when sampled. My friend recommended the "ginger rice," which you just mix with freshly cooked rice. It's packed with plenty of ginger, and the ginger flavor bursts in your mouth, so delicious! This is definitely addictive! (≧▽≦)

I visited the store in February 2020. It is located in Grand Front Osaka, in the basement of the North Building. This store is famous for its dashi (soup stock) and has locations nationwide. In Kansai, they have stores here, in Kyoto's Daimaru, and in Osaka's Takashimaya. The special feature of this store is that their products are additive-free, with a gentle flavor, and you can also sample them. This time, I purchased a chirashi sushi mix. Unfortunately, I was told that the sampling had ended, so I couldn't try it. The prices are on the higher side. I made it at home right away. It had a gentle flavor and was good. They sell products that are good for your health. I recommend treating yourself to a little luxury while staying at home. Please note that they will also be closed from April 8th to May 6th.

I tried the dashi from this store and it was really delicious, so I decided to stop by. It's located in the basement of Grand Front Osaka, making it easy to access from the station. They have a wide variety of dashi and seasonings available! There is a tasting corner for the dashi, which is great. They also have Kansai limited and seasonal dashi options, making it difficult to choose. You can ask the staff to help you find your favorite dashi. This time, I bought dashi for hot pot and oden, as well as some freeze-dried soup. The prices are reasonable, and you can enjoy delicious food with peace of mind!

This is a shop that specializes in dashi broth, which has been featured on TV. They offer a variety of dashi broths that are free of artificial seasonings and preservatives. I bought the reduced-salt Chiyonosha dashi (which is said to be 53% less salt), the Golden Ratio dashi (which pursues the perfect balance of umami), and the chicken dashi (made by further grinding bonito flakes into powder). When I got home, I had someone make dashimaki tamago (rolled omelette) using the Golden Ratio dashi (it looked delicious in the photo). It was incredibly delicious. I haven't used the chicken dashi yet, but I'm looking forward to it.

I had seen this shop at Grand Front on TV before and had wanted to go there once. I had tried to go before but couldn't find the location of the store. I'm glad I could go this time. I bought oden broth, Japanese-style dipping sauce, salted yuzu vinegar 50ml, and freeze-dried miso soup x4. I made rice balls using the salted broth for dinner. It was delicious! The yuzu vinegar was also good to drink, with a mild acidity that made it easy to drink. I plan to make oden using the broth I bought today soon. There was a constant line at the register, indicating its high popularity.

Visited on Sunday evening. This time, I purchased tea and chin soup stock. The tea has a good aroma and it's reassuring to know that the ingredients are safe.

The dried flying fish (ago) dashi from Chino-ya is very refined and produces a delicious broth, so I sometimes buy it when traveling. However, it was difficult to find it every time. Chino-ya is a famous shop that sells dashi with grilled flying fish. They do not use chemical seasonings or preservatives, so you can use it with peace of mind. What's more, you can use it directly from the bag without any waste, which makes me very happy. Originally, it started from the dishes at a restaurant called Chino-ya in Fukuoka. Since the store opened in Umekita Cellar, I always buy it here while shopping. This time, I was able to take my time and listen carefully to the staff's explanations. They let me try all the 7-8 types of dashi available in the store, all served hot. This was great! I could clearly taste the difference between reduced salt and regular dashi, as well as the flavors of vegetable dashi, shiitake dashi, and dried flying fish dashi. It was a great experience to understand the taste of each dashi. I'm glad to be Japanese.

I went to buy souvenirs for my family and relatives. It was crowded because it was the end of the year, with long lines. I walked around and decided what to buy, then got a basket and lined up. I bought 5 bags of Menoya dashi for 386 yen, 5 bags of niboshi dashi for 386 yen, plum pickles for 1080 yen, and a New Year's gift for 1250 yen (I think it was Menoya dashi, niboshi dashi, and vegetable dashi). While waiting in line, they served yuzu tea, and if you went to the booth for dashi, you could try all of them. I had seen them in commercials before, and the dashi was all delicious with a subtle flavor. I wanted to try making simmered dishes and udon. They took my basket and gave me a number tag in exchange. I bought bottled plum pickles because my mother likes them, but they need to be refrigerated, and the staff gave me very detailed instructions on how to handle the ice pack, which showed their dedication. I bought things to give to others this time, but of course, I want to use them myself too. Since it's in Grand Front, I thought it would be even better if I could have a meal using these ingredients.

Since being gifted this dashi salt by a friend last year, I've been obsessed with it and have been spreading the love by gifting it to others. It's great for sprinkling on rice balls, pouring over rice with raw egg, dipping sashimi, adding to stir-fried vegetables, or drizzling over congee. My favorite way to enjoy it is with rice and raw egg - it's so addictive! The shop is always crowded, but the products they sell are so delicious that I always leave feeling satisfied with my purchase.

This product is free of chemical seasonings and preservatives, so you can choose it with peace of mind. There are various types to choose from, making it fun to decide which one to get. The Dashi and Tsuyu Sesame Hot Pot for one person × 2 servings cost 540 yen. It contains separately packed dried shiitake mushroom-infused dried fish stock and soy sauce with whole soybeans. I made a sesame hot pot with plenty of pork and vegetables, and it was delicious with a rich and elegant flavor. The Kayanoya Tsuyu (50ml) costs 360 yen. Ingredients include soy sauce (brewed), flavoring ingredients (bonito flakes, round herring flakes, grilled horse mackerel, kelp), sugar, mirin, salt, rice fermented seasoning, wheat fermented seasoning, yeast extract, rice vinegar. I tried it on udon noodles, and it was also delicious with a rich broth. I'm very pleased that both are delicious and free of unnecessary additives. I will definitely choose some more when I visit Grand Front Osaka. Kayanoya Osaka City, Kita-ku, Ofukacho 4-1, Grand Front Osaka Umeda Kita Plaza B1F, 1 minute walk from JR Osaka Station, 3 minutes walk from Hankyu Umeda Station, 3 minutes walk from Umeda Station North Exit on the Midosuji Subway Line, 436 meters from Nishi-Umeda Station.

On my way home from work, I was asked to buy some dashi at Chayonoya in the basement of Grand Front. It's been three months since I accidentally bought bread instead of pastries on my last visit. This place is often featured on TV and is always bustling whenever I go. The dashi here is really delicious. Nowadays, many households tend to use dashi stock granules instead of making dashi from scratch with ingredients like dried fish, seaweed, and bonito flakes. I understand that it's more convenient, and it's nice not to have to eat the leftover fish flakes, but the flavor does suffer a bit. Using a pack like this to make proper dashi really brings out the depth of flavor. I took the escalator down to the second basement floor and found Chayonoya dashi. Excitedly, I bought it and headed home. "Here you go." "Wait, weren't there any larger sizes?" Oh no!

Lately, there is a shop that has been featured on TV as serving delicious dashi broth♪ The shop is located near my favorite bakery, City Bakery, in Grand Front Osaka♪ Whenever it is featured on TV, there is always a long line, making it difficult to see or buy!! I had trouble buying it, but the other day after having lunch at City Bakery's cafe, there was no line, so I bought their classic product♪ Chiyonosha Dashi for 386 yen, made from dried flying fish from Nagasaki, Hokkaido kelp, and bonito flakes from Kagoshima, all powdered into dashi. This is the dashi that has been frequently featured on TV. It has a smooth taste and is versatile for making soup and simmered dishes♪ The shop also had another product called "Gokumi Dashi" for 648 yen, which is a bag of 5 packets containing 8g each, made with high-quality bonito flakes without any chemical seasonings or preservatives. I tried the sample, and it was rich and delicious, but surprisingly, it was about twice the price of Chiyonosha Dashi.

I was wandering around Grand Front in Osaka and came across Chayonosha, a dashi specialty store from Fukuoka that is now popular in Tokyo as well. When I visited their store in Iwataya Fukuoka, I could only sample the dashi and didn't end up buying anything. But here, I was able to try other samples, and I really liked this "roasted sake," so I purchased it. I tried it on steamed white leeks, and it had a perfectly balanced flavor. I believe if you ask, you can sample all the varieties before making a purchase. I tried them all and ended up buying them all. The roasted sake is made by simmering sake with bonito flakes, kelp dashi, and their own fish sauce, finishing it off with plum vinegar for a refreshing taste. It can be used in various dishes like salads, simmered dishes, sashimi, and carpaccio, making it quite versatile. At only 540 yen per bottle, it's delicious and affordable. I plan to take this back to Fukuoka and enjoy it with fresh local fish and vegetables. The store space is larger than the one at Iwataya Fukuoka. Using the recipe book and catalog I got at the store, I tried making different dishes like trefoil and chicken salad, light simmered chicken wings, steamed early harvest cabbage and pork, and steamed leeks and oysters (to be dipped in a sauce similar to ponzu). They were all delicious. I particularly enjoyed the steamed chicken wings and vegetables with the roasted sake. I also bought their dashi soy sauce and drizzled it over trefoil salad. Personally, I still prefer the dashi soy sauce from Kam**ya. I also bought vegetable dashi, so I'm looking forward to trying the appetizer hot pot recipe (they say it goes well with wine). ===== I made another dish - onion and chicken simmered in roasted sake. I enjoyed it with fatty amberjack sashimi. The onion had a mellow flavor and was delicious. (Osaka locals might find it a bit bland.) The sashimi was also delicious, maybe because the amberjack was good quality. By the way, I bought this fatty amberjack for less than 600 yen in Fukuoka. ===== I also made the appetizer hot pot. I used a bit more miso than the recipe called for. The soup was so good, I even drank it all! Delicious~ I used barley miso from Kyushu, so it's slightly sweet. The porridge at the end was also delicious. I highly recommend this hot pot!

There is a restaurant called Kayanoya in Umeda Square at Grand Front Osaka. They specialize in Japanese cuisine focusing on the essence of "dashi". Their powdered dashi made from grilled flying fish, dried kelp, and bonito flakes is popular for bringing authentic dashi flavor to home cooking. They offer three different dashi flavors for tasting at the store, so you can choose your favorite. I recently bought the Sesame Hot Pot (serves 2) for 540 yen. It comes with two packs of anchovy dashi and two packs of sesame hot pot broth. The rich and mellow sesame flavor created a delicious hot pot like I've never tasted before. I would love to try other flavors as well.

The human body is a wonderful thing, isn't it? When you eat cake, you crave salt and minerals... I was lured by the aroma of dashi and ended up at Chionosha. It is recommended by Osaka housewives! They use the dashi from here. It seems there is always a long line. I tried a sample at the store! Wow, it's delicious! The grilled jaw adds so much flavor! It's already seasoned, so you can even enjoy it as it is in a soup! They have vegetable dashi, sardine dashi, and low-salt dashi, but since we eat mostly Japanese food at home, I liked the strong flavor! I bought the one with grilled jaw! They have a dashi cooking book at Chionosha! I will use the dashi pack to make it! I will tear open the bag and use the contents! I think I can make something delicious with this! At least, I hope so... I hope... I will go home and make dinner! I made miso soup right away and it turned out to be a gentle flavor! Thank you for the meal!

I like shopping for items related to the dining table more than decorative items, so I often wander around this kind of store (laughs). This is Chionosha, which has its main store in Fukuoka Prefecture. It started as a small soy sauce shop in Kyuhara-cho, Fukuoka Prefecture in 1893. For 220 years, the company has been working on manufacturing and developing various seasonings such as soup, sauces, and soups using the techniques of soy sauce brewing. I bought three types of soup stock here and tried making them. Chionosha Dashi (roasted flying fish, bonito flakes, sand lance, dried kelp, sea salt included) contains whole small fish bones. It blends five kinds of blessings from the sea in a well-balanced manner, so of course, I used it for soup with "kishimen" noodles from Nagoya! Vegetable Dashi (minced garlic, celery, carrot, cabbage included) is a powdered vegetable dashi that captures the umami of the vegetables themselves. I tore open the bag and used it to make onion soup, adding eggs for balance. Niboshi Dashi (sand lance, dried kelp, dried shiitake mushrooms, roasted flying fish, sea salt included) is a strong-flavored dried fish dashi, perfect for everyday miso soup. I also made a car fuwafuwa no o-soup using both the niboshi dashi and chionosha dashi, and it turned out to be delicious. The effect of this soup stock is amazing! This series is the best for soup lovers.

Kayanoya, a famous natural food restaurant in Fukuoka, opened in April 2013 at Grand Front Osaka, a new spot in Osaka. The place is crowded with people, but despite that, I visited twice during my stay in Osaka. I didn't know much about it, but my sister, who loves dashi broth, said it was delicious. I tried the vegetable dashi and Kayanoya dashi at the storefront, and both were excellent. I wanted to buy both, but the Kayanoya dashi tea bags, which contain 30 bags, cost 1,890 yen, so I chose the Kayanoya dashi to enjoy at home. It is made with carefully selected, additive-free, domestic ingredients such as grilled jaw, bonito flakes, sardines, kombu, and sea salt. The tea bags make it easy to use this authentic dashi. Although it may seem expensive to me as an ordinary person, the dedication to creating this dashi makes the price reasonable. They also gave me a Kayanoya dashi recipe book, which was very helpful. At home, I use Marukyo miso "Ouko" (additive-free, similar to red miso) from Ichikawa, Chiba, along with this dashi to make delicious miso soup. Good dashi makes me feel like my cooking skills have improved. You can buy it online, and it is also available in Tokyo, with an eat-in option at Midtown, which I hope to visit someday. (Permission to post this review was obtained via email due to the crowded nature of the store.)
