Fuel up with Takoyaki from Kogaryu. Takoyaki is a popular snack in Osaka. Almost every street corner has a stall sizzling away—the rule of thumb is the longer the line, the better the snack. Head straight for Kogaryu. The stall is unassuming beside the distracting shopfronts on its street, but they’re committed to the freshest ingredients. They make their own mayonnaise and special sauce (a blend of apple and onion), while green onions are added to compliment the taste of fresh octopus and Bonito flakes.

On the other hand, Kougaryu prefers to stick strictly to basics. The shop has been passed from father to son, along with it, a tried-and-tested recipe from almost 40 years of Takoyaki domination. Mr. Tadaka, the founder’s son and the current owner, focuses on refining their solid recipe. They even whip up a homemade mayonnaise to mix with their Takoyaki sauce. Mr. Tadaka has experimented with tomato-garlic and bacon-corn fillings. What’s worked, though, is Moroccan octopus and “yamaimo” (Japanese yam)—an improvement on the original recipe. Kougaryo’s most adventurous hit is a Black Pepper, Salt, and Mayonnaise combo you can squeeze a little Lemon onto. It’s a simple improvement that goes a long, long way. Customers that knew Mr. Tadaka’s father, The Michelin Guide Bib Gourmand, and the area’s fashionable crowd all seem to agree that classic and simple never goes out of style.

Hokkaido Takoyaki (SM Makati)
Their Kani & Mozzarella is the best! Get six pieces at just PHP119 (about USD1.50)! So. Good.
8864
Pair a plate of takoyaki (たこ焼き, octopus balls) with sake or wine at 8864! The tapas-style place serves their Takoyaki hot, made with a rich and creamy batter that spoils the taste buds in every bite! Do be careful, though, as the savory balls are served straight out of the pan—best to wait a few seconds before digging in!
