Reviewers praise the chewy, lightly sweet wrapper and the generous, juicy pork filling, calling it the classic Osaka gift that people outside Kansai often request. Several note the smell on trains, so chilled or frozen packs are popular, and a box of six suits small groups best. Some find one bun very filling.

The one reviewer gave this as a gift to a hot-pot lover, praising the wonderful aroma on opening and a slightly spicy blend that livens up hot pot, especially with extra sansho pepper and yuzu. The shop near Ishikiri Shrine will blend to your taste.

The one reviewer says the sauce goes with everything, having tried it on croquettes, omurice, takoyaki, pasta, udon and potato salad. The quantity is just right to finish before getting tired of it.
