Giant Takoyaki

We’ve covered Takoyaki on JapanNewbie before… But these are monster Takoyaki.

During Ebisu Matsuri in Osaka, which I’ll post about later… I ran across this vendor selling Takoyaki which must have been three times the normal size! Maybe four.

An entire mini octopus fits inside, rather than just a piece of leg. I didn’t try one of these… Even while eating regularly sized Takoyaki I often end up burning the inside of my mouth due to the super-heated insides…

Not quite ready to level up to these super Takoyaki yet.

Maybe next year…
