Hiroshima Okonomiyaki Monogatari Ekimae Hiroba

One of the two large collections of okonomiyaki shops in Hiroshima, this one is easily accessible from Hiroshima Station if time is short. If there were more time, finding an individual shop could be more of an adventure, but you can't go wrong with one of the many stalls here.

It's great fun to watch your pancake being made. Great grilled oysters, tasty pancake.

It's a dark, dingy floor with several okonomiyaki restaurants packed in. We chose the corner closest to the elevator. It was delicious, and the cook was very friendly, but the whole place needs a good scrub down.

Stopped by on my Japan trip since, you know, it 's Hiroshima and you have to eat okonomiyaki here. We chose Denkousekka 電光石火 , the popular one with the red banner; it wasn 't bad but it wasn 't amazing. My mom could do better, and she 's not your world class chef. It was only after I asked to have some sauce and mayo on the side that I first thought Mm! , which I think says something. The soba doesn 't have much flavor, and the meat is yummy because meat is yummy? Now, this isn 't their fault, but they were also so crowded that it took forever to get our food, much longer than I 'm used to in Japan. Honestly, please...take my advice and just go to a lonelier restaurant in the hiroba and make the chef 's day. Maybe they 're less well advertised but I 'm sure the ojisans will be happy and take good care of ya.

ここでは有名な地元料理のお好み焼きを楽しむことができます。クレープのようなパンケーキが目の前で新鮮に作られます。材料はとても新鮮で地元産で、味は口の中で一つの芸術作品として広がります… 日本の非常に高い基準でも素晴らしいです。ほとんどの店のオーナーやスタッフは若い人たちで、少しだけ英語を話すことができ、英語の写真付きメニューもあります。広島駅からの短い徒歩圏内にあります。ビールもおいしいです。
