As a former resident of Osaka, Japan, I do love my okonomiyaki. I can cook it myself at home but the smoke alarm goes off every time.
For $5.85, I sample a bacon okonomi here on Charles Street. As I eat, I fall into reverie: so many happy memories of enjoying this dish in far-off places with far-off friends...
I like my okonomiyaki to be big, thick and crispy on the outside. This Okonomi House one is not. It needed way more special sauce, too. Next time I have a craving, I'll cook my own. I just have to remember to take the batteries out of the smoke alarm.
