OSAKA UMEDA: à le Loïc Gelato! Pistachio and Strawberry was yum... my rare ice cream entry. (SONY RX100M3)

Client visiting from NY and had to bullet train down to Osaka for a few days to help navigate and translated during their stay. Luckily it was just next to the New York talk show stage they were participating.

Ice cream produced by French patisserie Loic Langry.

Oh my... Gelato is not very budget friendly but this 690 yen two selection ice cream so sooo delicious.

The annual New York Festival at Hankyu Department store offers alot of NY artwork for sale.

This artist reminded me so much of Jean-Michel Basquiat.

Interesting artist that creates tiny clay animal figures then paints them.

If in Umeda you gotta visit the massive Hankyu Department Store that is vast! They seem to have frequent events in the top floor.

NIHONBASHI: EATALY for Italian Gelato and Napoli Pizza

Just can't pass up Italian Gelato... I believe EATALY has its main Japan branch in DAIKANYAMA but there is also a smaller outlet in Nihonbashi MITSUKOSHI for light shopping, gelato and pizza.

3 Gelato's in a cone/cup for 550yen.

But our main motive was 2 wines (red, white, sparkling, rose) with Italain "Otsumami" (finger foods?) that included bread and proscuitto ham on a bed of salad and tiny tomatoes.
