Mitsuru Cafe

If you’re in the mood for a quick snack, head directly to the crowd right outside of Mitsuru Café. Through the shop’s window, watch fresh imagawayaki $(1.25) being made: Thick, chewy, piping hot Japanese griddle cakes stuffed with a sweet (but not too sweet) red bean paste. You also can pick up a few skewers of takoyaki, or battered balls filled with octopus ($2 per skewer), or wander in for some old school Japanese diner grub.
