Sesame Oil Salt Flavor Experience
This time, I ordered the sesame oil salt flavor, which I was particularly interested in among Yama-chan’s takoyaki. The takoyaki looked golden in color and wafted a savory aroma. When you put it in your mouth, the outside is crispy, and the inside is a tender dough. The aroma of sesame oil spreads softly, and the saltiness is exquisite, making the flavor truly addictive.
In addition, the takoyaki is filled with plenty of octopus, making it a very satisfying meal. With a wide variety of sauces, I would like to try other flavors next time.
