Soup pasta warmed on a camping stove is incredibly delicious! What is this soup pasta and fresh donut shop that opened in Higobashi, Osaka?

"Pasta Garage Debut," which opened in April 2026 in Higobashi, Osaka, is a sister restaurant to the popular French restaurant "Un Parfait." The name "Debut" means "start" or "beginning." The restaurant is located in an alley just off Tosabori Street, and has a hidden-away feel that makes it difficult to find on your first visit. The interior, which is a renovated old house, is filled with the warmth of wood and has a calm atmosphere like a mountain lodge.

The shop is run by manager Yurika Koma. She transitioned from the beauty industry to the food and beverage world, gaining experience mainly in service, and now also handles cooking. "The owner loves camping and noodles, so we combined those two things and created soup pasta that is heated on a camping stove," she says.

Here are the dishes you can enjoy!

The first thing you notice when you sit down is a small camping stove on the table. You place the soup, served in a Sierra cup, on it, light the stove yourself to warm it up, and then dip your pasta in it. It's a unique dining experience that you can enjoy right in the middle of the city.

There are two types of soup. First up is the white cheese soup. It's a smooth and creamy white soup made by blending chicken broth, chicken, and vegetables in a blender and then straining it. The mellow richness of the cheese and the sharpness of the saltiness are pleasant, and it goes well with the thick, chewy fresh noodles. The toppings are seaweed, a soft-boiled egg, and two types of char siu (salted chicken and roast pork). After boiling the fresh noodles, they are lightly tossed with yuzu pepper dressing, which helps to tighten the flavor when combined with the soup.

Next up is the Red Americaine. This rich red soup is made with shrimp broth (including the shells) and tomatoes. The aroma of shellfish and the acidity of the tomatoes combine to create a rich yet light aftertaste. If you want to supplement your daily vegetable intake, we recommend adding hot vegetables as a topping.

Another signature item at this cafe, perfect to enjoy with coffee, is their fresh donut. The dough, which undergoes two fermentation processes for a rich flavor, is filled with a light cream made from a 50/50 mix of fresh cream and custard. It's not too sweet, making it easy to eat whole. "Many people enjoy it as a dessert after eating pasta," says the owner. Takeout is also available.

Enjoy the camping atmosphere

"People who can't go camping are happy that they can still get a taste of camping," says Koma. Located in a business district, the restaurant attracts a wide range of customers, both men and women, and has become a hot topic as an "experiential dining" restaurant. They have also created a system to maintain consistency in taste while maintaining this style, and are planning to expand to more locations in the future. We encourage you to visit and enjoy a fun mealtime in a camping-like atmosphere.
