If you’re visiting Tore Tore Market in Shirahama, don’t leave without trying the legendary takoyaki at Odori Dako — this isn’t your average takoyaki stand. What makes it stand out? Each ball has an entire baby octopus inside!
🐙 Whole Octopus in Every Bite
Instead of the usual chopped octopus bits, Odori Dako stuffs a whole baby octopus into each takoyaki ball. The result is crispy on the outside, gooey inside, and packed with that delicious, chewy octopus texture. It’s a fun and satisfying experience — both to see and to eat.
The takoyaki is made fresh to order, and watching the staff expertly flip them on the hot grill is part of the charm. Topped with classic sauce, mayo, and bonito flakes, it’s savory, rich, and full of umami.
🎡 Great Market Snack
Located right in the heart of Tore Tore Market, it’s the perfect quick snack while browsing fresh seafood and souvenirs. There’s often a line, but it moves fast — and trust me, it’s worth the wait.
