Made and ate okonomiyaki for the first time. I took bits and pieces from recipes from Adam Liaw, Chef's Labo, and Just One Cookbook.

Oh god yeah. Okonomiyaki is one of my favourite dishes of all time!
The result looks impressive for a first time! I find it hard to get the right balance of tastes.
I think my favourite one is in a little restaurant in Gion, Kyōto, where it is prepared in front of me on the teppan (鉄板) by the chef before being enjoyed piece by piece. You really eat it with all your senses, I love it.
It looks like an omelette with mayo and onion peel. That's said, I'd still eat it.
it looks like dead flies. no thanks.
