...go in and order it. This will be even more true in Singapore, I think. Yet it also applied in Kyoto. K and I were dying to try okonomiyaki, a griddled pancake of egg and cabbage covered with a chef's choice of additional toppings that can include meat and seafood. On Yasuko's recommendation, we went to a corner shop in Kyoto.
On sitting down, we looked at the menu, and ordered one of everything on it (well, two actually, because we were pretty hungry):
The dish itself was pretty good - lots of different flavors, and the mix in each bite was unique. The dark brown sauce was a great addition, a little bit like a lighter version of hoisin. Filling and satisfying, goes well with a beer - that's why this is the late-night food of Kyoto!
The place itself had a kitschy ambiance, included pre-selected dining partners (see me conversing with one below) and an open style kitchen where you could watch the fun.
