Question
I’m planning a trip to Osaka and heard that the food there is amazing! I definitely want to try some local specialties but I don’t know what they’re called. How do I ask for local food recommendations in Japanese?

おすすめの地元料理（じもとりょうり）は何（なん）ですか。
Osusume no jimoto ryouri wa nan desuka?
What are the recommended local dishes?
When traveling to a new place, it’s always exciting to try local specialties, and Osaka is famous for its unique and delicious dishes! Use the phrase “osusume no” which means “recommended,” and “jimoto ryouri” refers to “local food.” By asking “osusume no jimoto ryouri wa nan desuka?”, you’re essentially saying, “What are the recommended local dishes?”
Feel free to ask this at a restaurant or hotel, and enjoy the gastronomic adventure Osaka has to offer!
