Suddenly feeling hungry but it was an awkward time, so I decided to have takoyaki with a friend. Although I always passed by this place, I had never tried their food before. With my friend by my side, I felt at ease and we enjoyed the delicious takoyaki with savory salt and green onions. It was a soft and tasty treat ☺︎

There's a takoyaki shop right off Omotesando street! Their recommended dish is the Negi (green onion) takoyaki. You can sit down and eat, and if you come by car, there's a 60-minute parking for 300 yen. The Negi takoyaki costs 650 yen. The inside is fluffy like Osaka-style takoyaki, and the sauce has the perfect balance of sweetness and sourness. The combination with green onions is irresistible.

It was delicious. In this hot weather, citrus flavors are just what you need, and salted lemon flavor is always a safe bet. The minerals after sweating in the August heat taste so good. The takoyaki itself is rich in broth and perfectly cooked, soft and melting. I might come back when I visit Harajuku again.

The other day, when I visited "Waratako Harajuku Omotesando Store", I tried the authentic Kyoto-style sauce takoyaki for 580 yen. I ordered it because I believe that you can't truly understand the taste of Waratako without trying their takoyaki with sauce, which is a classic choice. Ever since I visited "Waratako AEON Mall Fujiminami Store" the other day, I have become a fan of Waratako.

There is a takoyaki shop on Omotesando. They are known for their Negimayo takoyaki, so I always eat that. In Tokyo, there are many takoyaki shops that make firm takoyaki (like Gindaco), but here at Waratakoyaki, the texture is fluffy and the sauce is delicious. I can easily eat 6 pieces by myself. I hope they expand their stores so more people can enjoy their takoyaki easily.

I found a friendly takoyaki shop near Meiji Jingu-mae Station on the Fukutoshin Line and couldn't resist being drawn in. Despite the rainy day, I decided to get just one pack of takoyaki for takeaway. I hesitated to eat in front of the crowded shops as it would easily exceed 1,000 yen for lunch around here. I found a quiet spot to discreetly open the pack. The takoyaki was soft and the sauce was a good match, very tasty. The octopus was big, but the texture felt a bit too chewy for the soft takoyaki. It's a luxurious complaint, though. Even at 500 yen per pack, it feels cheap in Omotesando.

On Sunday, I stopped by the gallery somsoc in Harajuku, owned by the artist Saku-chan, and then I got a little hungry. The large takoyaki was fluffy and delicious. Unlike the takoyaki from a certain chain that is fried, I prefer this type that is soft and fluffy. The outside is not crispy, but the firm texture inside is better than the hard ones that are difficult to cut with chopsticks. The inside is gooey and hot! I ordered the spicy sauce for 580 yen, and I liked that the spiciness came from the chili peppers. It's nice to be able to sit on the edge of the nearby flowerbed and enjoy the takoyaki. It seems like a fun treat when visiting Omotesando and Harajuku.

I finally tried the Spicy Cheese Takoyaki that I had been curious about. It was a creamy and delicious takoyaki.

The sauce was soggy. A friend said it was delicious when they went, so it might depend on the day. Won't go there again.

Soft and not to my liking. More like Akashiyaki.

I will walk down "Cat Street". The street has a unified feel with stylish shops lined up. After walking for a while, I found a flashy red shop that stands out in this area - "Warattako"! It's a takoyaki shop. The regular takoyaki (6 pieces) costs 500 yen. It might be cheap considering the location. I asked for less mayonnaise but more bonito flakes. There are benches in the middle of this street, so we sat there to eat. We also had something to eat on "Cat Street". It was delicious.

Takoyaki for 500 yen.

Thank you for your hard work today. I was deciding between a huge tonkatsu or nigiri sushi for appetizers, but ended up trying takoyaki. I waited in line for about 5 minutes and ordered a ponzu sauce flavored takoyaki for 550 yen. When asked if I wanted mayonnaise, I said yes, and they ended up putting mayo all over the container, making my hands and phone all messy. The takoyaki was freshly cooked and very hot, too hot to hold the container. It was a soft and flexible texture. Overall, it was worth the 550 yen.

〜Grand Reopening! Popular Takoyaki Shop in Shibuya!〜 I heard that a personal favorite of mine in Shibuya had reopened, so I went to visit the shop "Waratakoyaki" right away. This takoyaki shop in Shibuya used to operate under the name "Daihachi Takohanamaru" until around December last year, but when I visited today, it had changed its name. The new name is quite simple, which I think is good. Even though the name has changed, it seems that the shop's flagship item remains the same. The highlight of this shop is undoubtedly the "Negi Shio Takoyaki." When I tried it before, the creamy takoyaki topped with a nice salt sauce and green onions was amazing. Just like foreign tourists, I lined up to buy takoyaki. Since it's a shop with a good turnover, I was able to purchase it without much of a wait. I paid 550 yen to the lady and started eating right away. When I actually tasted it, the consistent deliciousness was unchanged. The creamy takoyaki spreads in your mouth and makes you want to eat more and more. The salt sauce adds a nice punch, which I really like. "Waratakoyaki" is located about a 3-minute walk from Meiji-jingumae Station. It's easy to spot as there are always tourists crowding in front of the shop. Eating takoyaki after a long time is still a great experience. The creaminess is a unique texture that you can't find elsewhere. If I have the chance to go to Shibuya again, I would definitely want to go back. Shop Name: Waratakoyaki Address: 5-11-3 Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo Date of Visit: 19th February 2018

I came to Harajuku after a long time (´>∀<｀) It's been a while, although I haven't come here that often.....(´∀｀*) Ah, as usual, it's crowded with lots of people.....(´×ω×｀) When you think of Harajuku, you think of sweets (☆∀☆) However, I've had a lot of sweets lately so I decided to try something different here (∩˘ω˘∩ )♡ I found a takoyaki shop (σﾟ∀ﾟ)σ called "Warai Takoyaki Harajuku Omotesando" (*˙︶˙*)ﾉﾞ I waited in line for about 10 minutes and bought takoyaki for 500 yen (๑'ڡ'๑)♡ It was somewhat small and looked a bit deflated....( ﾟωﾟ；) The taste was average....(´×ω×｀) For this price, I think Gindaco might have been better??? (´∀｀*) Ah well, thanks for the meal (*˙︶˙*)ﾉﾞ
