Sista kvällen i Tokyo åt vi okonomiyaki. Man lagade den själv på en stor stekhäll och trots tydliga instruktioner och sneglande på borden bredvid blev vår inte lika snygg som de andras. Men gott var det! Man väljer ingredienser själv; vi delade på en med fläskkött och bläckfisk. Och ovanpå är det okonomiyakisås, majonnäs och katsuobushi (tunna spån av torkad fisk).

On our last night in Tokyo we had okonomiyaki. We cooked it ourselves on a big griddle and despite clear instructions and our peaking at others around us ours didn't turn out as pretty. But it was still delicious! You pick your own ingredients and we shared one with pork and squid. On top is okonomiyaki sauce, mayonnaise and katsuobushi (thin shavings of dried fish).

    I love that food. Or maybe more the memories about moments, when I have been making and eating it. Thank you. The bowl in first picture is lovely.

    OMG, wonderful!
    I live for okonomiyaki and as a matter of fact I invited some friends over last saturday to have a huge okonomiyaki dinner. Actually, I just made two large okonomiyaki out of the leftovers, just some 30 min before reading your entry.
    Seriously, when I lived in Japan for a year, the okonomiyaki place close to my apartment with the all you can eat for 2 hours, I practically lived there...

    I totally feel like sending you a gift right now, ha.
    bon appetit.
