I lived in the Kansai area of Japan until last year, and I'm starting to crave a few of the foods I ate there. I'd love to get my hands on some good okonomiyaki (Osaka-style) or some hirekatsu.
I'm making my first trip up to Seoul over the long weekend, and I'm wondering if anyone knows any decent restaurants offering either of these that won't break the bank.

Thanks

I've seen a chain called "Izakaya" around town and am told that they have a descent selection that goes beyond sushi. I haven't tried them myself. Also, the Best Western Vision Hotel and the Imperial Palace Hotel (among others) also, I'm told, have excellent Japanese restaurants.

If anyone has tried these (or any others), I would also like to hear your thoughts. I adore Japanese food.

just ask for hamul payjun and donkatsu at your local diner with the red lanterns hanging out front.

You can get omurice and donkatsu at any kimbab shop for 3000-4500 won.
