An absolutely adorable oba-chan toils away tirelessly in a tiny space the size of a small closet, industriously churning out ball after takoyaki ball.

The smallest ones I've seen yet, they may not be the best(a little dry and no mayo), but her patient labour of love despite being in a dingy basement surrounded by more enticing eateries, melted our hearts and won us over.

Taste: 3/5
