A comment! Yah, I find the mix to be a bit... err... mushy? Indistinct, flavor-wise? Haven't tried the cheese thing, tho I've heard others do that. My guess is that it kind of serves the same purpose as the nagaimo for gooiness factor. Actually, turns out that if you add too much nagaimo, well, let's just say there's such a thing as too much. Had it at L&Js while I was there last, and it was too much and too coarse. Kinda added an unnecessary weirdness to the whole thing. Can't believe that anyone would call you difficult. I'd say she made that up. I say that. She made that up. Yeah, now and then, I have those natsukashii moments, but I tell ya... learning to make all this stuff does a good job to alleviate that. The food was one of the best parts. And the train. And no crime. And everyone being polite. And the scenery. Hey… looky there! A comment!

The heck you say! Still, making your own hondashi is pretty hardcore I s'pose. Me, I'm a okonomiyaki-mix user mostly. I thrown in chunks of cheese too sometimes if the truth be known. Hey! We dined on okonomiyaki in Kobe one night, right? My high maintainence o-Jo-sama gf said you two told her how difficult I was when I went to the can. Boy, did that turn out to be ironic! But I digress. The okonomiyaki restaurant is a gas in itself, hey what. Someone's got to have their shit together about making it or the whole table suffers. Not sure if that could fly in the US, heh. Ahh.. Nippon. Natsukashii ja nai desu ka? Green onions …optional? The heck you say!
