Regency Cafe and Okonomiyaki

[Wednesday 29th July]
Managed to persaude a couple of colleagues to go out for lunch today, and the three of us headed over to my new favourite eatery - the Regency Cafe. It's the first time I've been there for lunch. I had a veggie burger with chips and beans - decent honest food - very satisfying!

In the evening I continued my attempt to not eat cheese this week by eating more East Asian type food - so tonight we thought we'd have okonomiyaki. Slightly ironically though my favourite okonomiyaki is topped with cheese, garlic and Japanese mushrooms (an imitation of one they server at Abeno - they call it a "kiso mix"). Still, it wasn't much cheese, but that said the whole thing was fried and then served with mayonnaise so it's credentials as any kind of healthy option are on somewhat shaky grounds.

I also made a second okonomiyaki with kimchi in it, which came out rather well (if anything better than the kiso one).
