Last year's Okonomiyaki night was a huge success; join us and learn how to make this delicious dish. Of course, we'll eat what we make. Besides enjoying the delicious food, you'll meet other Mokuyokai members and participants.

Not sure what Okonomiyaki is? Okonomiyaki is a popular Japanese pan fried food that consists of batter and cabbage. Selected toppings and ingredients are added which can vary greatly (anything from meat and seafood to wasabi and cheese). This variability is reflected in the dish's name; "okonomi" literally means "to one's liking". The dish is available all over Japan, but is most popular in Western, particularly in Hiroshima and Osaka. (From Japan-guide.com)

Mokuyokai Board member and chef extraordinaire, Shaun Krislock, will demonstrate how to make okonomiyaki. Participants will then branch off in groups to make their own to share and enjoy. This event filled up quickly last year, so please RSVP early! Please note that as we have to pick up the ingredients in advance, we ask that participants pay in advance.
