Takoyaki is a savory Japanese street food in the shape of a ball (about the same size as a golf ball) and is cooked in a special cast iron griddle to get its signature shape. This addictively delicious bite-sized eat originated in the Osaka prefecture of Japan in 1935. Takoyaki is made up of four main parts: the slightly crisp shell, doughy inside and a piece of tako (octopus) tucked inside and of course, topping that range from traditional to creative. Still confused? Run to your nearest Takoyaki Yamachan to order a fresh batch and try them for yourself!

It is hard to imagine a place serving fresher fish than this unprepossessing spot near the Nikko Fish Market, where rumor has it, the most respected sushi chefs in The City buy their fish. In addition to delightfully rendered grilled and broiled fresh fish, you will find delicious tempura in fish, beef, chicken and veggies varieties at the Moshi Moshi. The 'Donburi' are especially nice, topped with delicately spiced chicken, beef, pork or vegetables. Service is quick and efficient from a personable wait staff.
