Okonomiyaki is incredibly delicious and satisfying – still my all-time favorite after all these years!

Mariko’s friend is staying over for a few nights and tonight she asked if we could have okonomiyaki, which is just fine with me since it is my #1 favorite food. So happy! I ate so much though… but it was just so delicious. Yolo?

It’s my birthday! (10nineteen) So my dinner request was for my favorite food: okonomiyaki. I ate so much but it was worth it. Yummy! And Mariko made enough for leftovers too. Woohoo!

It’s funny but my family’s go-to birthday dinners are karaage, okonomiyaki, and oyakodon. Definitely not fancy foods, but certainly family-favorites.

We made okonomiyaki tonight, which was awesome! It’s my absolute favorite food, and tonight’s was a little different because instead of yakisoba noodles, Mariko used whole wheat spaghetti. She added a little baking powder to the boiling water, which made the texture of the noodles pretty close to yakisoba. We’ll definitely be doing this again if we don’t happen to have yakisoba handy!

FYI, we’ve been using this Tiger electric hot plate for years now, and it’s been great. It’s got three different cooking surfaces: a pan, a grill, and takoyaki pan. And it’s very easy to clean since it comes apart easily. Another cool thing is that it has a carrying handle which makes it easy to move around. We’ve taken it over to friends’ houses to use several time. I highly recommend the Tiger electric hot plate or something similar.

Tonight we enjoyed Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. I love it! My favorite is Osaka-style, but Hiroshima style is delicious as well. I am so full… I couldn’t stop eating. 😁
