After trying it in Japan (home-made) while staying with Japanese people, I came back, bought the mix (takoyaki does just fine), bonito flakes, the sauce and mayo and now wonder why nobody sells it on the streets here in Australia. I'm sure it would be an instant hit, though probably not a cheap one like a burger.rgolubevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04405792830882830879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7232896455291670454.post-72054428614961721202013-03-08T10:54:32.106+08:002013-03-08T10:54:32.106+08:00Thanks Amanda :) Hope you enjoy the okonomiyaki mi...Thanks Amanda :) Hope you enjoy the okonomiyaki mix!Blue Apocalypsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09444430475249979370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7232896455291670454.post-46379327918465731792013-03-07T18:01:48.169+08:002013-03-07T18:01:48.169+08:00I love okonomiyaki to bits, but have never seen it...I love okonomiyaki to bits, but have never seen it here in Adelaide.

Nothing beats slurping up a hot bowl of slippery ramen, standing shoulder to shoulder with stereotypical salarymen in Shinjuku.

I wonder why more restaurants in Perth don't make okonomiyaki when it tastes so good, maybe it's hard to get it right as nagaimo isn't readily available. Was talking about making okonomiyaki over twitter yesterday with Moni and Conor, and Conor said she had trouble getting nagaimo so tried using xantham gum to get the goopiness. Moni said that most Japanese people use the packet mixes too. At the moment the packet mix will be my go to for my okonomiyaki fix!<br />Blue Apocalypsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09444430475249979370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7232896455291670454.post-4090489154313246082012-10-19T06:51:40.239+08:002012-10-19T06:51:40.239+08:00Nice post Ai-ling.

Having said that, Senoji in Vic Park does a decent one. Another Osakan dish they do in a similar vein is the squid pancake which is basically an eggy crisp-out, fluffy-in crepe dense with squid.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11502408055712133349noreply@blogger.com
