DIY Okonomiyaki and Yakisoba Extravaganza at Hatsuse

 


When it comes to Osaka, the land of culinary wonders, Hatsuse restaurant beckons with promises of a unique dining experience. Dive into the heart of Japanese street food culture with their DIY Okonomiyaki and Yakisoba, where food meets fun in a sizzling affair.

DIY Okonomiyaki: A Flip and Flavor Fiesta

At 968 yen, the Okonomiyaki adventure begins. The instructions read like a secret code to unlocking the perfect pancake-pizza fusion. Mix, shape, flip, and voilà – you've got a savory treat waiting to dance on your taste buds. But beware, this DIY endeavor might be more fun with friends than for the solo foodie just seeking a quick bite.

Yakisoba: Noodles, Pork, and a Splash of Chaos

Equally priced at 968 yen, the Yakisoba experience takes you through a noodle symphony. From spreading oil to the final sunny-side-up egg flourish, it's a spectacle. But, let's be real – it's all a bit much if you're just there for a straightforward meal. Who knew noodles could be so demanding?

The Verdict: Fun or Fuss?

While the communal cooking setup may suit a lively gathering, the hassle factor can overshadow the dining delight for a solo adventurer. "We just wanted to eat!" echoes through the hotplate-cluttered air. Taste-wise, both dishes were decent, but the real flavor depends on your prowess with the spatula.

Service Saga: Lost in Translation

In a tourist-laden Japan, Hatsuse's service left us yearning for the warm hospitality we expected. Unfriendly and unwelcoming, it danced to a different tune than the customary Japanese hospitality. Perhaps it's the bustling tourist area or maybe an off day – either way, it missed the mark.

Conclusion: A Unique Osaka Culinary Affair

Hatsuse's DIY Okonomiyaki and Yakisoba experience is a whirlwind of flavors and fun, but not without its quirks. If you're ready to trade convenience for camaraderie and culinary chaos, this Osaka gem might just be your next dining destination.

Hunan Pork Belly at Xiang Xiang Hunan: Crunchy, Spicy, and Lip-Smacking Good

  You know a dish is that good when you keep coming back for it. And that’s exactly what happened on our third visit to Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine 湘香湖南菜 —this time at AMK Hub. We already had high expectations from our past experiences, but once again, their Hunan pork belly blew us away. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What Makes This Hunan Pork Belly Stand Out? First off, let’s talk about the star of the show: their Hunan stir fry pork , made with a heavenly combo of Iberico pork belly and lean pork. It’s a dish that really brings out the spirit of Hunan cooking—bold, fragrant, slightly spicy, and loaded with green pepper aromatics. The pork belly is wonderfully fatty and tender, with that unmistakable richness that Iberico pork is known for. The lean pork adds a nice balance so it doesn’t get overly unctuous. And then there's the rabbit ear fungus. Yes, rabbit ear fungus—also known as Mu Er or Yunnan black fungus . It...

Xiang Di Mi Fen Pasir Panjang Food Centre – Fatty Ipoh Noodles Review

  When you think of crispy noodle dishes, most of us immediately picture the classic deep-fried yee mee swimming in luscious egg sauce gravy. But over at  Fatty Ipoh Noodles (肥仔怡保炒粉)  in  Pasir Panjang Food Centre , there’s something different sizzling away on the wok. Enter the  Xiang Di Mi Fen (香底米粉)  – a rare twist that swaps out yee mee for bee hoon, and the results are worth every crunchy bite. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What makes Xiang Di Mi Fen special? Here’s the magic: instead of sturdy yee mee, the hawker goes with delicate bee hoon. Deep-frying bee hoon isn’t as straightforward – it’s finer, more brittle, and breaks more easily, which means it takes extra skill to get it golden, crispy, and ready to hold up under a blanket of silky gravy. That’s already a show of craft. The glorious egg sauce gravy Once the fried bee hoon hits the plate, it’s doused with a  luxurious egg sauce gravy  that cl...
