Osaka Okonomiyaki, another favourite Japanese Food

Fri, Aug 10th 2007, 00:00

A favourite night out in Osaka is another local speciality: okonomiyaki


Okonomiyaki Osaka style is do it yourself food. Okonomi means cook as you like. This style of cooking originated in Osaka but has spread throughout Japan.

Okonomiyaki is a cross between a pancake and an omelette in the style of a pizza. Okonomiyaki restaurants are popular with students on a budget, since the food is inexpensive, filling and fun to prepare.

Tables have embedded hot plates so you can cook your own ... you will receive a bowl of pancake-like batter, plus a dish of diced vegetables and a choice of main ingredients, such as shrimp or pork. These are mixed with the batter to form a topping. It takes a bit of experience to figure out when to flip the pancake and when to take it off the grill!
