OKONOMIYAKI
REUNION WITH HONESTY !
A few months ago Kevin and I decided to plan a reunion with Honesty, our good friend from OCC! We wanted to eat something "Japanese" because we originally met from Japanese Language class from OCC.
Anyways, after searching long and hard on yelp, I decided to choose EBISU RAMEN in Fountain Valley! (Next to Samurai Burrito and in the same plaza as Elvis Karaoke, the Japanese Karaoke bar)
I chose this place because I really craved OKONOMIYAKI which is a sort of Japanese pancake type of dish with flour and eggs and all sorts of toppings like bonito flakes, seaweed flakes, a variety of meat and etc. I ate this dish A LOT while living in Japan and so it was only natural for me to compare this to the authentic taste I fortunately got to experience in Japan.
This restaurant was pretty Japanese actually. The workers spoke Japanese (I said sumimasen just to practice in a conversation with my friends and the waittress overheard me and came over!) and they even had the fake food for display! (Those are neat-o!)
Honesty and Kevin both got ramen bowls and both of them were REALLY DELICIOUS. I got the okonomiyaki dish and it was actually REALLY BIG. I couldn't even finish it myself and I usualy EAT A LOT. In fact, I often ate at AYCE OKONOMIYAKI restaurants in Japan!
I recommend this place if y'all wanna try Japanese Ramen! The Okonomiyaki was good too (; BUT, not as great as the ones I've had at Japanese festivals or in Japan. Still, this place was an okay alternative!
BY THE WAY, IF YOU LOVE HANA YORI DANGO, THEN YOU'LL PROBABLY GET THE TITLE REFERENCE. "MEET ME AT EBISU GARDEN PLACE 1 PM" - DOMYOUJI
ONE OF THE BEST JAPANESE DRAMAS I HAVE EVER WATCHED. IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT, WATCH IT!! EBISU (TOKYO) IS THE COMMON MEETING PLACE FOR THE COUPLE ^___^
