A visit to Abeno


Last week, my friend and I finally made it Abeno after our failed attempt earlier in the year (Holborn one is reservations only, Soho one generally has a massive queue). 

Abeno is a Japanese restaurant specialising in okonomi-yaki - japanese pancakes - which they mix and cook in front of you. 

After it's cooked, they decorate with Japanese mayonnaise, fish flakes, dried seaweed and some other sauce which is more fruity.

We forgoed (I presume I can this in past tense but dictionary disagrees with me) dessert in favour of some gyoza, again cooked in front of us. Yum yum 

I also tried some plum wine - my second try of it, first been not so good in Soho - and this time it was very nice and apparently like the ones in Japan.
