whatever you want grilled

Ever since I got back from Japan, I’ve had this hankering for some okonomiyaki. Before I returned to Bangkok I made sure I got the intel on where to find the best okonomiyaki in Bangkok from a Japanese friend I met there. So last weekend I ended up gouging on some of the finest okonomiyaki at Kizahashi, a fine and medium range Japanese eatery.

Okonomiyaki (お好み焼き?) is the japanese version of the pancake cooked with various ingredients. Okonomi means “what you like” or “what you want”, and yaki means “grilled” or “cooked” (cf. yakitori and yakisoba); thus, the name of this dish means “cook what you like, the way you like”.

If you’re ever in Bangkok, download the guide below for some okonomiyaki:
