Join Japanese Chef Mamie Nishide for an evening spent making some of those favorite snacks, such as: Okonomiyaki (fried batter cake with savory toppings); Takoyaki (octopus dumplings); Yakitori (skewers); Gyoza (pan-fried dumplings); Onigiri (handmade rice balls); Kelp; Dried Shiitake Mushroom and Bonito Dashi; Gomoku Yakisoba (crispy noodles); and Korokke (deep-fried croquettes).
