@louisbosco awesome! And that lighter is rad too. Love the brass. Looks like a blast.

@Oaktavia yeah man. The solid brass on that is insane. There’s some hefty weight to it. I said to Kenta, that he should ask Haraki to re-make it. It’ll definitely sell!!

I will be in Osaka in April. Any tips for music bars / venues, cool neighbourhoods, veggie friendly restaurants and clothing shops appreciated.

We often use https://www.pocket-concierge.jp/en to find and book restaurants.
Look for Shojin Ryori, it's the Buddhist Cuisine of Japan which is vegeterian.
The Samurai HQ is in Osaka.

Thanks @louisbosco - was first on the list

Great tips @Chap, thanks! I will be sure to find some shojin ryori.

not much I can offer on veggies as I don't eat them but if you do eat sushi and sashimi, do reach out.. otherwise the usual spots in Osaka revolves around Shinsaibashi and dotonburi. kuromon market is worth having a look. otherwise look up orange street for all your fashion stuff..

Awesome - thanks for the tips @louisbosco!
