Whoops, we accidentally took a summer break. We just have so many kids and so little free time. But we’re back and we’re excited to talk with actor and marketer Sakura Nakahara about her favorite childhood dish that remains a favorite today, okonomiyaki. Not just a childhood treat, today it serves as her mother’s love language, bribe language, apology and so much more.
We talk with Sakura about being the black sheep of the family for pursuing a science career, growing up with picture-perfect bento box lunches, and her eventual journey to the stage. Plus her sister’s diabolical game night and her possible sixth-sense for grapes.
Listen wherever you get your podcasts and let us know if you’ve got a good spot for Okonomiyaki. As much as we aspire to be Sakura’s mom, we’re probably just ordering out for this one. But if you do want to give it a go at home, grab her mom’s recipe from our website and let us know how it turns out.
