Some kind of summer festival:http://www.mitsuwa.com/event/eevent.php?e=36[/list:u] I had to work today, but I might try to get over there tomorrow. Gotta get my okonomiyaki :drooling: [/list:u] Edit: Maybe cori will be one of the Hawaiian dancers!! [/list:u]

mmmm. .takoyaki... :drooling:

Last year, those hula dancers dragged me up on stage. Unfortunately, I'm booked solid for next weekend.

I got the long hair to be a hula dancer, but not the skills. :sweat:

I don't have the hair or the skills, but I still did it. I was at an Obon Festival in Little Tokyo and learned how to do some bon odori. Festivals are more fun when you participate. :mrgreen:

Yeah, that's true...I was more zeroed in on the takoyaki, the yakitori, okonomiyaki, gyu-don....you get the picture. :mrgreen:

i prefer the peeled and cored apples hand fed by a canadian school teacher who happens to like japanese dramas and frequenly forgets to wear clothing when i'm around.

those are the best.

I just noticed far right column, second from the bottom, they have Soki Soba, it's an Okinawan soba served with a sparerib (as in the picture)...I've never seen that offered at any noodle place in L.A! Perhaps because it's an Okinawan dish, I don't think they are too many Japanese restaurants that serve Okinawan specialities...

I didn't know tabana was a school teacher. :beaten:
