Kobe, Hyogo, Japan｜お好み焼き･鉄板焼 さかえ

Wonderful little neighbourhood Teppanyaki joint. Super friendly owner/chef, great food eat in or take out, and just a fun place to be. Highly recommended

Excellent, cozy, home cooking authentic style Japanese cuisine. Great atmosphere from the owner & chef Ko-chan. He will entertain you with his conversations while you sit in his quaint little local restaurant!

Rather than an okonomiyaki restaurant, it is a Japanese restaurant with a wide variety of dishes. "Oden" is also popular in winter. There is also “Soba Meshi”, which is typical of Kobe. When I asked about the okonomiyaki recommendation, I was told "oysters", and I got a mix of oysters and pork. The oysters were plump and cooked perfectly and delicious. The sauce is sweet. I like mayonnaise. Bonito flakes were powdered bonito, not flower bonito. It seems that there are many regulars in the neighborhood, and the general's glue is good and fun. The counter seats are comfortable for single customers, and there is also one table seat.
