Chef Collaboration Series

Next date: JUNE 18

Gaijin is thrilled to announce our tenth installment of our Chef Collaboration series, featuring Chef Andrew Zimmerman of Sepia and Proxi!

Okonomiyaki means “have it your way, griddled”, and we’re always thrilled to customize the dish for each and every one of our guests.

Each month, to show just how versatile the dish can be, we’re teaming up with a series of award-winning Chicago chefs to showcase osaka-style okonomiyaki, THEIR way.

Each chef will be in house for one night only sharing their dish, and we’ll run their special osaka-style okonomiyaki for the next few days while supplies last.

These will be can’t-miss events, and we are so excited to see what these chefs will be cooking up!
