From Nishiki Market in Kyoto, we headed towards Osaka in the evening. It took around an hour to arrive.
When we arrived in Osaka, we went to have dinner at a restaurant named Maido. The dinner for the evening was Pork Nabe (Not a coarse language here) and other dishes like pork belly, sashimi and tempura.

The pork belly in a small bowl was tender and tasty. The pork slices inside the Nabe were also tasty. However, it would be nice if the pork slices are accompanied with rice because the thick gravy was too salty.
After a sumptuous dinner, we headed to the hotel we were staying for the night - Sheraton Miyako Hotel. Honestly speaking, I've never stayed at Sheraton or Hilton or whatever "-ton" before so I hoped it was a nice stay there.

We went outside the hotel to walk around and saw a pachinko shop which is located opposite the hotel. We entered the shop but couldn't stay there long due to the cigarette smell.

Inside the hotel room, we had supper. My mother bought a matcha cake from the market place near Fushimi Inari Shrine that afternoon and we finished eating it.

Overall, the cake was nice but the matcha seemed to be too sweet. The price? Not very cheap though, around 1,000 yen.
With that, we ended the night in Osaka.
To be continued for Day 5: Short stop at USJ and spa experience at Spa World.
