Tokyo Tako-Yaki Party!
What's better than a long night out clubbing in Roppongi?
What could possibly be more exciting than cruising Tokyo's party strips, padio's and cabanas?
What does every Tokyoitte well know well.....yet keep secret from most foreigner people?
Tako-Yaki Parties!
A night spent in at home with a couple of good friends and a "Tako-Yaki" machine!
Is the funnest, greatest thing anyone can do at night in all Tokyo!
YAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!
Tako Yaki is so fun and easy to make, these tasting little octopus balls are absolutely DELICIOUS! I'm just waiting for it to take off in baseball parks all across the States and Canada upon my return. Seriously, these little "Osaka Treats" are my absolute favorite!
What's Tako Yaki?
basically its battered and fried octopus balls with a couple of onions,
and small veggies thrown in for good measure and then finely topped with mayonnaise, fish flakes and sweet sauce!
How to make them;
1). Get a Tako Yaki machine
2). Buy;
Tako Yaki powder, freshly boiled octopus (chopped), pickled ginger,
tempura bits, eggs, chives or long onions (finely chopped)
Make the batter using the tako-yaki power, onions, pickled ginger.
Get the Tako Yaki machine nice and hot and place one bit of octopus into each
"tako-hole".

Have fun guys!
Tako-Yaki balls are complimented well with Beer and a baseball game.
If you're Canadian (from Windsor) like me, you can even eat them while watching the Wings! Cheers!
