Street Food #2 : Popular Street Food in Japan

 Firstly ,  I would like to introduce is Okonomiyaki .  Okonomiyaki  are traditionally prepared to use up leftovers at home. The matsuri version is usually packed with filling items such as thick cut bacon.  They are very popular pan fried food that consists of batter and cabbage. Selected toppings and ingredients are added which can vary greatly (anything from meat and seafood to wasabi and cheese). This variability is reflected in the dish's name; "okonomi" literally means "to one's liking". The dish is available all over Japan, but is most popular in the west, particularly the cities of Hiroshima and Osaka. 

secondly, I would like to introduce is  Crepes .  It's difficult to imagine how many crepe shops there might be in Japan. Certainly over 10,000. Many are trucks or street stalls. Crepe shops are usually surrounded by high school girls seriously contemplating the vast menu. 

 One more I want introduce is  Ikayaki .  Ikayaki or  Grilled squid  is a popular fast food in Japan.  the term refers to simple grilled squid topped with soy sauce; the portion of squid served may be the whole body (minus entrails), rings cut from the body, or one or more tentacles, depending on the size.  Ikayaki is served in many izakayas and a grilled tentacle on a stick is popular at Japanese festivals.
