Takoyaki Tanota

Friday Evening 6:00-8:00 PM

Tanota Takoyaki Logo Takoyaki!? What!?
What the heck is “Takoyaki”??? Osaka!!

Without exaggeration you could probably say, Takoyaki = Osaka and vice versa. Takoyaki was originated from the streets of Osaka way back in it’s days. The round shaped shells are made from eggs and flour and on the inside there are octopus pieces and a mix of veggies.

We use a special grill to cook “Takoyaki”, specially made for it. In the old school days in Osaka they use to say if you are a newly wedded wife to a family, better bring your Takoyaki grill. People in Japan, especially in Osaka love Takoyaki.

Truck Norris

Saturday and Sunday Afternoon 12:30-3:30 PM

Truck Norris Logo A gourmet food truck serving Hawaiian Filipino food that was created by siblings, Melissa and Ronnie. Of course it all started with their Mom’s recipes! They got them down and created a few of their own to share it with you.

Check out their website, www.followtrucknorris.com, if you want more information in regards to where they are or where they will be. For up to the minute updates, follow them on Twitter and Facebook.

Chef Ronnie Boy… baby of the family, cooking since he was 6, has been a foodie before he even knew what that was!! His love for food brought him to Kitchen Academy, now CSCA – Hollywood, where he has learned to improve his culinary skills. His passion for food led him to graduate at the top of his class and was even asked to do a speech at graduation! There is nothing that Ronnie loves more than laughing and good food. Put those together and you get Truck Norris. He wants to put a smile on your face as well as your stomach so you keep coming back for more. This is his passion and you can see that in all of their dishes.
