About twice a month, my family and I go out to Donguri (across the street from the Park Hotel), a great okonomiyaki place in Akita City. It specializes in the Osaka style, although there's a variety to choose from. The proprietors are the friendliest people you could ever meet, and the food is simply delicious (the cheese okonomiyaki is to die for). The menus aren't English, but are mostly in katakana so it's not too difficult to find something great. Suppusedly, they even deliver now (although we haven't tried that yet, so I'm not exactly sure how that works)!

If anyone goes, order the "appuru dezeto" for an awesome ending!
