Vegetarian Okonomiyaki

· Japan

Very tasty! It's fried cabbage, bean sprouts and noodles sandwiched between a pancake and a fried egg, smothered with teriyaki sauce. Usually it would have pork, but mine has sliced garlic instead.
I went to Roku as recommended on the Happy Cow website (for vegan and veggie restaurants) - hidden away on the 3rd (4th in US/Japan) floor of a block, along with many similar little eateries.

They prepared it on a hot plate in front of me, and you take a slice at a time off the hot plate as you eat, so it stays warm...and somehow didn't burn!
