I just spent a good half hour calling up EVERY Japanese 
restaurant listed in the phone book for my area of Manhattan.
Only ONE of them serves okonomiyaki, and THAT'S on special
order (they don't actually have it on the menu). Is there
any particular reason why this is so hard to find? From
the way it's talked about in Ranma 1/2, I had the impression
that it was a rather common food...
