Not at all... There's only about eight seats at the sushi bar, but the amaebi and unagi are top-notch. :victory:

thats weird. everyime I order beer they yell the order out or yell irasshaimase and a whole bunch of other stuff I can't understand... but it adds to the environment. Do they have a ramen side attached to yours also?

If they don't yell Irashaimase! then they are not getting much business. -> bad
Or if they are too busy serving customers to holler -> good

I remember someone mentioning that there was a okonomiyaki place in Torrance (Triky?), but I never got around to checking it out... :sweat:

What ingredients are you using?

15 Oct 2009, 04:22 #18880

I'm using ground pork, chives, green onion, napa, garlic, ginger, mayo, salt, and pepper pan fried in sesame oil. I just think the amount of ginger, garlic and mayo need to be rethought. I have just been adding it and then smelling to decide how much to put in. i might have to succumb to actually measuring something for once :bonk:
