About this dish

Horumonyaki (Japanese: ホルモン焼き) is a kind of Japanese cuisine made from beef or pork offal. Kitazato Shigeo, the chef of a yōshoku restaurant (one that specializes in Western-derived cuisine) in Osaka, devised this dish and registered a trademark in 1940. It was originally derived from yakiniku. The name horumon is derived from the word "hormone", with the intended meaning of "stimulation", as in the original Greek. Horumonyaki has a reputation for being a "stamina-building" food.
