One of the famous Japanese cuisines is Takoyaki (“Fried Octopus Ball”) which is so popular that 60% of Osaka household owns Takoyaki griddle. It became famous that it’s seen as a future “fast food” commodity of Japan and to be distributed worldwide. Currently, Takoyaki is marketed not only in Japan but also in China, Taiwan, Macao, Hong Kong, Philippines, Singapore and in the United States. Takoyaki are known as octopus (tako) balls (“Fried Octopus Balls”) is a savory ball shaped Japanese dumpling perfectly grilled in a special Takoyaki pan whereas Okonomiyaki is a Japanese savory pancake containing variety of ingredients and referred to as a “Japanese pizza” or “Osaka soul food”. Both foods are widely available throughout the Japan.

You know you're a takoyaki lover when you burn your tongue during your first bite and continue to torture yourself until you finish eating it, haha. Based on my experienced this is the best place to get freshly made takoyaki. If you've never purchased this before, here's how you do it: Choose what you want, between the type of takoyaki, how many you want? A normal order comes with regular takoyaki sauce, mayo, furikake and bonito flakes.

 

And of course, ORDER and PAY at the cashier line. An order of 4 pieces (RM8.90) and 6 pieces (fRM12.90). Because I'm Chinese...I'll get the 6 pieces which I'll receive more discount and can share it if I cannot finish...Chinese are calculative.

Takoyaki balls mainly contain vegetables – carrots and cabbages, imported seasonings, batter and most especially, squid cubes. A typical Takoyaki is filled with diced baby octopus, some vegetables, green onion and some tempura scraps. These are authentic Japanese octopus dumpling balls which have gained popularity in many parts of the world. Otako Japanese Food will bring a taste of Japan within your reach. This original taste will bring back your memories of the previous traveling experience to Osaka which used to having Takoyaki at a street outlet and enjoyed. The delicious aroma of Takoyaki generated from the street outlet always draw in the hungry and “eat on the go” crowd.

There are few types of Takoyaki with different favors:

(1) Takoyaki
(2) Mentaiko Takoyaki
(3) Cheese Takoyaki
(4) Taru Taru Takoyaki
(5) Negi Takoyaki
