Smallest takoyaki shop in Japan

Whilst walking through the narrow passageways under Umeda train station which I like to call Salaryman Central, I came across this takoyaki shop which bills itself as the smallest takoyaki shop in Japan. It had newspaper cuttings to prove its point.
Takoyaki is fried octopus pancake balls and is a speciality of the Kansai region of Japan.
The shop may have been small but the takoyaki were normal sized. I’ve had better though.

Anywhere in the Kansai region. The taste grows on you.

I wonder if someone else has tried to create a smaller takoyaki shop and failed.

There is a TEEENY one outside Shoji Subway station in Osaka - not quite that small, but close. It was my local when i lived there

I love takoyaki!! A great comfort food, shame you can’t get it in London though.
