Shizuka tries 3 different types of takoyaki at Tsukiji Gindaco, a well-known chain of takoyaki shops that started in Tokyo’s Tsukiji Market; and Daikanyama Tempu, a popular takoyaki shop run by Sakuramoto-san (a.k.a. Saku-chan), an Osakan who is creating his community around takoyaki in Tokyo.
After trying the original, seasonal, and teritama styles of takoyaki at Gindaco, Shizuka meets Sakuramoto-san at his takoyaki shop and standing bar in Daikanyama where she learns about how he went from being a typical Japanese company worker to the owner of a takoyaki shop frequented by celebrities and everyday people alike. The conversation takes a philosophical turn, with Sakuramoto-san explaining why he instituted an honor code with his guests’ bills.
What is takoyaki made of?
Generally, takoyaki consists of a savory batter that’s ladled into a special takoyaki pan with circular indents, topped with slices of octopus and more batter, shaped into balls, and topped with sauces. Classic Gindaco takoyaki is usually slathered in takoyaki sauce, mayonnaise, katsuobushi (bonito flakes), and aonori (dried seaweed).
