Pudding Specialty Store ‘My Pudding Diner’ Opens in Namba, Osaka

16.February.2022 | FOOD

My Pudding Diner, a store specializing in pudding and other products using Osaka’s famous mixed juice, has officially opened in Namba! Initially opened in April 2021 as both a shop and cafe, these spaces will now be separated to deliver delicious pudding to even more people.

 

Due to the pandemic, many schools across Japan were closed, and a large amount of milk meant to be used in school lunches had nowhere to go. The owner of My Pudding Dinner partnered with a vendor to put this milk to good use–to create these delicious homemade puddings!

 

At My Pudding Diner, guests can enjoy a variety of Osaka Mixed Juice Puddings. After opening, 3,000 puddings were sold in two days. A second store, primarily used as a manufacturing facility, opened in summer 2021 and continues to sell 1,000 puddings a day.

 

The shop’s goal is to make people happy through food. Which one of these treats would put a smile on your face?
