Here we have just finished the tour from Osaka Castle when our stomachs started making noises. This is called Takoyahi. It is make of flour with either prawns or otocupus inside. It is made into the shape of a ball about the size of a microphone and usually eat it with sweet sauce and sprinkling of green nori flakes on top. This snack is very very popular in Japan and was originated in Osaka. So while in Osaka, you definately have to try it! This snack can be found in many places including street vendors.

Favorite Dish: OSAKA SPECIALITIES- Takoyaki. In Osaka, there are many stalls that are open and located on city sidewalks that sell Takoyaki. Takoyaki is small octopuss balls and is prepared by pouring batter in tinplate with
small chunk of octopus. (similar to muffin tin) It is delicious and do not get impression not good. In Osaka, my friends will always challenge me to try things I never would even consider and I have taken them up on this many times. There are so right too, must try before saying do not like!
It is so good and can be additctive. Takoyaki has a unique, delicious taste@!!!!!!!

This takoyaki comes flat, like a pancake. The taste was pretty good, though not quite like the usual round takoyaki balls.
