Kichijoji Anime Wonder Festival

I ran across an anime event at Inokashira park. Here is a couple of movies. Both of the singers are kind of legendary figures in Japanese anime songs; Takako Ota from Creamy Mami and Masayuki Yamamoto from Time Bokan series.

Okonomi-yaki

Stuffed pancake/crepe. It usually has a variety of ingredients - pork, squid, cabagge, egg... and it's topped with sweet Worcestershire-like sauce, fish flakes and seaweed flakes. Okonomi means "what you like" so you can put whatever you like.

Thin rice wafer w/ sauce (so-su) or paste on it. Traditional so-su senbei comes with mayo, okonomiyaki-sauce, or plum paste (red one).

Apple candy means this one in Japan.
