Not being able to do much  this quarantine makes us think about food most of the time.  Sometimes when we’re craving for something, we just take out our phone and order online. While others like it the easy way, some foodies would rather cook and experiment in their kitchens which then paved the way into creating some of those #TrendingQuarantineFood. If you can remember, our socmed accounts were once flooded by pictures of Dalgona Coffee, Ube Pandesal, Leche Flan, Sushi Bake and etc. 

While we still can’t get over some of  these food (Or am I the only one?), another #TrendingQuarantineFood is on its way, and it’s no other than Takoyaki. 

Takoyaki is a popular street food in Japan. It is made of wheat flour-based batter and cooked in a special molded pan. It is typically filled with minced or diced octopus, tempura scraps, pickled ginger and grilled onion.  

If you’re someone who haven’t tried Takoyaki, here’s my personal favorite takoyaki stores around the metro :
