Nakamuraya, Croquette and Beef Cutlet

Nakamuraya is a small, takeout-only storefront on the Tenjinbashisuji shopping street where a persistent queue of locals often forms. This stall is recognizable by the aroma of frying oil and the sight of workers preparing fresh croquettes and cutlets directly behind a glass display case. It is a neighborhood staple known for its affordable fried snacks, most notably its potato croquettes, which are celebrated for a slightly sweet flavor and a crispy, non-greasy batter.
