Okonomiyaki, japan style for italian pizza

Hi everybody, today i feel a little hungry, so today post it's about japanese food. I am an egg lover so i choose this one out from so many dishes of japanese, Okonomiyaki. I quit eat this okonomiyaki a lot in daily menu, although a simple one contain egg, cabbage, chili, and sosis.   :)
