HAKATA Kintako is a takoyaki shop near the Nakasu River in Fukuoka. It serves basic-sauce and mentaiko-mayonnaise takoyaki, with mayonnaise and green onions added to the sauced version. Stools and tables outside let you eat there right away. At 10:10 p.m., there was no wait, while the surrounding nightlife district was noisy and busy with people.
