Kitashinchi Geiko (I think her name was Sakura さく良), recreating the look of Kitashinchi Maiko. She explains that the outfit (Hikizuri, Haneri, Obi, Obidome) was worn by her older sister Umetomi 梅十三 when she was a Maiko (1950's). The hairstyle she is wearing in the pictures is in Kyoto-style. When Kitashinchi still had Maiko, their hairstyles were either Kyoto or Edo style (it seems the bin 鬢, the round sides of the hair, are the difference here).

I visited Quatre Lapin Kita Umeda, the third branch of the French restaurant famous for its super cheap steak lunch. Founded in March 2017, the restaurant is located in a quiet residential area in an alley off the main street leading from Umeda. Actually, I have been wanting to order 3 pieces of meat at Cattle Lapin ever since I saw the reviews on the Tabelog before.
In fact, I was not so sure… because at the main restaurant in Kitashinchi and the Kobe Sannomiya restaurant that I have been to so far, the max was 2 pieces of meat (400g). This review is a bit old as it is from 2019, but can you still order 3 pieces of meat back-to-back? I was excited to imagine a situation where 600 grams of steak meat would appear in front of me…

More April 4
After a much needed break, we head to the Dotonbori neighborhood, described at "Osaka’s most famous tourist destination and renowned for its gaudy neon lights, extravagant signage, and the enormous variety of restaurants and bars." Amen to that--shades of Shinjuku's Kabukicho neighborhood!
Susan plunges into a very narrow alley lined with restaurants and bars. A display of Wagyu beef catches her eye and we take a seat at the counter of Kitashinchi Harami Hozenji. The restaurant specializes in "yakinuki" (grilled meat), specifically in harami or skirt steak.
We start with a beer for me and a very generous pour (overflowing into a box) of sake for Susan. Kimchi and a green salad constitute the vegetable course but the highlight is definitely the steak!

Osaka Unveiled: Discovering the Best Activities in Japan's Culinary Capital
Osaka, Japan's second-largest city, is a vibrant metropolis known for its rich history, vibrant culture, and, above all, its mouthwatering cuisine. From sizzling street food stalls to Michelin-starred restaurants, Osaka offers a culinary adventure like no other. But beyond its gastronomic delights, this dynamic city is also home to a wealth of attractions and activities that are sure to captivate visitors of all ages and interests.
Begin your exploration of things to do osaka in the bustling district of Dotonbori, the city's epicenter of entertainment and dining. Here, you'll find a kaleidoscope of neon lights, towering billboards, and bustling crowds, all vying for your attention. Take a leisurely stroll along the Dotonbori Canal, where you can snap photos of the iconic Glico Running Man billboard and sample some of Osaka's most famous street foods, including takoyaki (octopus balls), okonomiyaki (savory pancakes), and kushikatsu (deep-fried skewers).
After satisfying your taste buds in Dotonbori, venture to Osaka Castle, one of Japan's most iconic landmarks. This majestic fortress, surrounded by expansive gardens and moats, offers a glimpse into Japan's feudal past and provides stunning views of the city skyline from its observation deck. Explore the castle's interior museum, which houses artifacts and exhibits detailing the history of the samurai and the rise of the Tokugawa shogunate.
For a more contemporary experience, head to the Umeda Sky Building, a striking architectural marvel that offers panoramic views of Osaka from its rooftop observation deck, known as the Floating Garden Observatory. Marvel at the cityscape below as you stroll across the open-air walkway, or enjoy a romantic dinner at the building's rooftop restaurant, which offers sweeping vistas of the city illuminated at night.
No visit to Osaka would be complete without indulging in a traditional Japanese tea ceremony. Head to the tranquil oasis of the Osaka Castle Park, where you can participate in a tea ceremony led by a knowledgeable tea master. Learn about the ancient rituals and customs associated with this time-honored practice as you sip on matcha (powdered green tea) and savor traditional Japanese sweets.
For a taste of Osaka's vibrant performing arts scene, catch a kabuki or bunraku (traditional puppet theater) performance at the National Bunraku Theater. Experience the mesmerizing artistry of Japan's classical theater forms as talented performers bring ancient tales to life on stage with elaborate costumes, intricate choreography, and masterful storytelling.
For a day trip outside the city, hop on a train to the historic town of Nara, home to some of Japan's most famous UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Explore the sprawling grounds of Todai-ji, the world's largest wooden building and home to a colossal bronze Buddha statue, or wander through the serene gardens of Kasuga Taisha, a stunning Shinto shrine surrounded by thousands of stone lanterns.
As night falls, Osaka truly comes alive with a vibrant nightlife scene that rivals any other city in Japan. Head to the trendy district of Kitashinchi, where you'll find an array of chic cocktail bars, stylish lounges, and upscale nightclubs. Alternatively, explore the narrow alleyways of Hozenji Yokocho, lined with cozy izakayas (Japanese pubs) and traditional teahouses, where you can enjoy a laid-back evening of food, drinks, and conversation with locals and fellow travelers alike.

Do you know of any active Okiya operating in Osaka?
I'm not sure if actual Okiya exist in Osaka. There is no Okiya in Nanchi, Nanchi Geiko are recruited and employed by Tanigawa たに川, which is an Ochaya. There are Geiko in Kitashinchi too, but in that district, I don't know of any Okiya either, just that two Ochaya existed in 2020, which is probably where the Geiko are employed as well.

I find it interesting that "月" was only introduced to Kyoto with Satsuki's debut in 2011, and has only been used for her and her little sister Mitsuki (2016). Since both are retired now, I'm curious how long until we see it again! It's not tremendously popular outside of Kyoto either, but there have some interesting names as well! 月子 Tsukiko (Osaka-Nanchi): Moon child 月若 Tsukiwaka (Tokyo-Shinbashi): Young moon 五月 Gotsuki (Tokyo-Akasaka): Five moons 進月 Shingetsu (Atami): Advancing moon 南月 Natsuki (Tokyo-Mukojima): Southern moon
"照" is much more common, but doesn't have a lot of unique names. 金照 Kinteru (Osaka-Nanchi): Golden shine 照美 Terumi (Tokyo-Shinbashi): Beautiful shine 照千代 Teruchiyo (Osaka-Nanchi): Eternal shine
"光" isn't very common outside of Kyoto - it sort of fell out of use after the 1950's and in the past 30 years, merely one Geiko/Maiko with this character in her name debuted (as far as I know): 里光 Satomitsu (Osaka-Nanchi): Bright village 小光 Komitsu (Osaka-Kitashinchi): Small ray of light 光菊 Mitsugiku (Hamamatsu): Bright chrysanthemum 光春 Mitsuharu (Kanazawa-Nishi): Light of spring/Bright spring
What’s In a Name? Part 18
It’s been quite a while since this feature has been chosen! Some of these were requested by a Patreon Super Supporter, and both regular Supporters and Super Supporters can choose what features they want to see. Click on the Patreon tab for more info ^^ Tsuki - 月 Prefix or Suffix: Suffix Old Meaning: Moon New (Standardized) Meaning: Moon Found In: Gion Kobu What could be more poetic than the moon? This simple kanji has an incredibly graceful meaning, yet is incredibly rare in the karyukai ^^ Examples 紗月 Satsuki (Gion Kobu): “Sheer Moon,” the first kanji in her name is that of the sheer, summer fabric often pronounced as “sha,” so you can imagine looking at the moon through sheer silk while trying to keep cool during Kyoto’s humid summers. 美月 Mitsuki (Gion Kobu): “Beautiful Moon,” very self explanatory ^^ Teru - 照 Prefix or Suffix: Both Old Meaning: Shine, Bright New (Standardized) Meaning: Shine, Bright Found In: Gion Kobu, Pontocho, Kamishichiken, and Gion Higashi Teru’s shine comes any form of light, whether that’s the sun or the moon or even a lightbulb! Examples 照古満 Terukoma (Gion Kobu): “Bright and Full Long Lived Life,” an interesting name as the “古” kanji was actually written with hentaigana. シナ照 Shinateru (Pontocho): “Shining Resolve,” a really unique name as it uses katakana, which has become quite rare for geimei. 照代 Teruyo (Kamishichiken): “Shining Era,” the ““ kanji has been featured before, so this was an easy one ^^ 照子 Teruko (Gion Higashi): “Shining/Bright Child,” another self explanatory name that’s quite cute. Teru/Mitsu/Kō - 光 Prefix or Suffix: Both Old Meaning: Ray of Light New (Standardized) Meaning: Ray of Light Found In: All Five Kagai Oddly enough, the most common pronunciation for this kanji outside of the karyukai is “Hikari,” which is a name or term that most non-Japanese people are aware of (you probably knew of this pronunciation before you learned of any others!). 佳つ光 Katsukō (Gion Kobu): “Beautiful Sun Beam,” a slightly more poetic way of saying “ray of light,” I found that calling it a literal “sun beam” (as many translators will do) worked a bit better with its paired kanji. 光彌 Mitsuya (Pontocho): “Full of Light,” a really nice and bright name! 光三 Mitsuzō/Mitsumi (Kamishichiken): “Three Rays of Sunshine,” this is a very old geimei from a time where the furigana was not present in odori programs, so each given pronunciation is equally valid but does not detract from its meaning. ふく光 Fukuteru (Miyagawa Cho): “Lucky Light” or “Laughing Light” or “Scroll of Light,” due to the use of hiragana this name has many different meanings. 叶光 Kanomitsu (Gion Higashi): “Bright Wish,” a cute and happy name!
