Future plans include Europe and China eventually, too. No word yet on Australia...

Terrible. How are people supposed to make Takoyaki overseas now? Anyone know of any other places to buy takoyaki makers online?

The link that you've mentioned is not working either. Do you know where I can get one with 240V? Thanks a lot! Hi I would like to buy a takoyaki maker but I couldn’t find anywhere in Melbourne.

Most families I know have one, and even some of the people that have transferred from uncultured locales such as Tokya end up buying one. Takoyaki is so simple yet the combinations are countless. My favourite is using a really thin batter to make takoyaki that is still a little runny inside and then eat these with ponzu sauce. If you ever go to Universal Studios Japan, I recommend going to the takoyaki section in Universal Walk between USJ and the station. It has several different shops with lots of variety (anyone for a takoyaki crawl?). Personally, I like Aizuya (http://www.aiduya.com/) I am in my 7th year in most recent stint in Osaka and I can proudly say we have 2 takoyaki machines (1 was a gift!).

That stuff is just too tasty! Unlike the picture above, I'm more used to far more chopped up octopus in my takoyaki. Still, good stuff! I don’t think there’s such thing as too much takoyaki.
