» Cindy McGlynn - Okonomi House in Toronto


There's a terrific little boite in Toronto called Okonomi House. I bet anyone who's been up here for the Toronto Film Fest knows it as it's right beside Festival headquarters....

I've been enjoying the lovely Japanese pancakey-omelettes for years. Here, they cover them in what can really only be called barbecue sauce and serve with a dollop of... is it really just mayo?

A true mashup of fast-food cultures. They cost about $6... are plenty satisfying and very tasty.

Yes, the sauces are often a Japanese brand of mayo ("Kewpie" is one of the top sellers) and something like Tonkatsu sauce. Tonkatsu sauce is similar in flavor to A-1 Steak Sauce, it's sweet and savory dark sauce. I'm definitely going to try to squeeze in the Okonomiyaki place in November. Thanks for the tip!
