Hello,
Me & family are travelling to Osaka, Kyoto & Tokyo by end of May 2017. We will be staying around Osaka - nippombashi station, Kyoto - shijo station & Tokyo - yotsuya-sanchome station during our entire trip. We would like to hunt for good local food during our trip as this is our very first time to Japan :)
Sincerely appreciate if anyone can give us some good recommendations.
Cheers.

In Osaka, go to the Dotombori area for food, in Kyoto go to the Nishiki Ichiba arcade, and in Tokyo go see the Tsukiji fish market (its open to the public from 10am).
Hope you find something delicious!
