Best food in Japan – v2. Okonomiyaki😋

Have you ever heard Okonomiyaki, one of the popular Japanese food?🇯🇵
Okonomiyaki is a Japanese popular pan fried food (like pancake!) that mainly consists of cabbage and batter, and a variety of ingredients; Pork belly, shrimp, cheese.. etc.🐷🍤

Okonomiyaki is associated with Kansai areas, especially Osaka(大阪), which is the second largest city in Japan and 2.5 hours away from Tokyo by bullet train🚅💨

But you don’t always have to visit Osaka for Okonomiyaki.. Nowadays it is widely available throughout Japan🗾✨

Below is one of the most famous Okonomiyaki chain restaurants started in Osaka.. They have 87 places in many cities, so you can go wherever you are convenient during your stay 😊🌟
🌸 Botejyu (ぼてじゅう); As you can see, the average price range is 1,000 JPY💴✨

In Tokyo, I highly recommend this place.. It’s located in Asakusa (浅草), 10min walk from the center of Asakusa👣 Here, of course you can enjoy a wide variety of tasty Okonomiyaki, but also, you can feel Japanese traditional home-style atmosphere👘🍵
You can’t imagine how difficult for us to find places in Japan that have English menus.. but no worries, they have! Just don’t forget – here you need to take off your shoes! 👟💨
🌸 Sometaro (染太郎) →Address: 2-2-2 Nishi-Asakusa, Taito-ku Tokyo
