Okonomiyaki is the most popular and famous streetfood dish from Japan’s second largest city, Osaka. Osaka is an industrial city famous for its unique and vibrant culture, its sense of humour and food that is cheap and tasty; it is known as the “Kitchen of Japan”.

Okonomiyaki means “as you like it”. It is a savoury pancake with a cabbage and batter base, a variety
of toppings and finished with a special brown sauce, Japanese mayonnaise, green seaweed flakes and
bonito shavings. The dish is traditionally served at matsuri (festivals) and shared with friends in small back-street caffs and peoples’ homes throughout the city and the rest of Japan. Part of the joy of the
dish is the experience of watching, smelling and tasting okonomiyaki cooked fresh in front of your
eyes.
