This past weekend was pretty easy going. We stayed in Ono all weekend (a rarity), spending alot of time studying, reading, and relaxing. On Friday night we went out to eat at a local izakaya in downtown Ono called Nondariya. Our meal of okonomiyaki, tuna donburi, fried ika (squid), and beer was tasty and inexpensive. I've blogged about my love of okonomiyaki before, but tuna donburi is also a favorite of mine. It's often available at izakayas, and we make our own version at home, as it is quite simple and inexpensive. To try it yourself: cook white rice and put your desired amount in a small (cereal size) bowl. Top the rice with heated canned tuna, scrambled egg and a small amount of mayonaise. Top with shredded nori (seaweed). Yum! We usually make a vegetable side to balance out the meal, something like mabo nasu (spicy eggplant). Below you can see the tuna donburi with Joe, and the okonomiyaki and ika with me. In standard izakaya fashion, the dishes are for sharing, and the small square plates are for your own personal portion.
