 I just read vol 18-19 of Hana Kimi, and while I don'y really have anything to say about the books...EVERYTIME I SEE SOMEONE MAKING OKONOMIYAKI IN ANIME/MANGA/DORAMAS I GET INSANELY HUNGRY BECAUSE IT LOOKS SO GOOD!

Even if I just ate.

Oh for a local Japanese place to try it out at...

(wonders if it's anything like egg fou yong)

How to make the sauce would be rather crucial, yeah.

Teppan Shojo Akane might win the food obsessed award...I only saw 1 ep of it, but there was a LOT of obsession w/ making food there.

Ooh - Teppan Shojo Akane is the drama starring Maki! (just made the connection - duh) I've been debating watching that simply because I like her so much. Do you recommend it?

Teppan Shojo Akane probably wins on food obsessions overall but there were scenes in Lunch Queen... I love how Jdramas can create moving, tearful moments of a person taking a single bite of food. And drag it out for 10 minutes!

I'll have to make a post sharing some of my favorite Japanese recipes so i don't clog up your replies with recipes.

Indeed.

I only watch the first ep of TSA. Maki was great and it was fun seeing her play a spunky go-getter, but I disliked all the other characters. And the guy who we were obviously meant to ship Maki with was mean to her and insulted her cooking, and not in a "you're a jerk, but you're fun" way. I do not tolerate being mean to Maki.

Hmm. Maybe I'll watch the first and see how well I tolerate the meanness. When I first debated watching it I had just finished Lunch Queen and the idea of another food drama scared me off (as much as I adored Lunch Queen). But Maki has really grown on me lately so I may cave...
