Okonomiyaki in France?

Yes, believe it or not. And not very far from where I live (within walking distance).

There's a place that my Japanese sommelier friend from the Alliance Francaise told me about. A Czech friend of mine also had never tried it and was dying to try it before heading back to Czech next month, and I proposed that we gather at the end of a really busy week. Nevertheless it was a lot of fun (though way more expensive than in Japan).

Our Czech friend was a vegetarian but ordered a set with miso soup, hot rice, okonomiyaki (tuna, cheese and canned corn, but without the tuna ... yes, go ahead and laugh), and dora-yaki, a azuki-filled bean bun for dessert.

For 14 Euros I had a set with an appetizer (buta shogayaki, or ginger pork), okonomiyaki made with scallops, and then a dessert which was really quite good (some kind of chestnut tart).

I really miss Japanese food and will have to start cooking it or something like it when I have time (hopefully) next semester.
