Japanese fish-shaped cake. The most common filling is red bean paste that is made from sweetened azuki beans. Other common fillings may be custard, chocolate, or cheese. Some shops even sell taiyaki with okonomiyaki, gyoza filling, or a sausage inside.

Taiyaki is made using regular pancake or waffle batter. The batter is poured into a fish-shaped mold for each side. The filling is then put on one side and the mold is closed. It is then cooked on both sides until golden brown.

Varieties available in Taiyaki:
Azuki Bean: Regular traditional Taiyaki filled with azuki/red beans
Italian: Sausage, Tuna, Corn, Tomato Paste
German: Sausage, Onion, Potato Paste
Ham & Egg: Literallly Ham & Egg inside, not as tasty as the others.

The outer layer is heavenly. Slightly crispy with a very strong "waffle" sensation. The potato paste inside is buttery not forgetting the generous portions of sausage and onion inside. However, the tail part is purely the waffle batter without any stuffings inside. It is still good though, not sickening to consume at all.

Personal Rating: 9/10 (Can't miss it if you are a potato freak like me)

Went back for more because I just can't get enough of it. Quality didn't drop a single bit even though the crowd is getting bigger. *thumbs up* In fact, the quality of it risen a little. As you can see that the outer layer is slightly burnt and crispier. Definitely towards my kind of taste. :)

Must go place for potato fans. :)
