It is known as a hidden gem where you can experience Hiroshima's nostalgic and artistic atmosphere.

Hiroshima Prefecture is the "Kingdom of Oysters," boasting the highest production and harvest volume in Japan. Carefully cultivated by organizations such as the Hiroshima Prefecture Aquaculture Fisheries Cooperative, triploid oysters, developed through selective breeding, have recently attracted attention. These oysters do not spawn even in summer and maintain their shape. The most classic way to enjoy them is grilled over charcoal, cooked on the spot. The umami and moisture are concentrated, making them juicy and truly worthy of being called the "milk of the sea."
Unlike the Kansai style, where the batter and ingredients are mixed together before cooking, the Hiroshima style involves spreading a thin layer of batter on a griddle, then layering it with large amounts of cabbage, pork, and yakisoba noodles. Each restaurant and region has its own unique cooking method, ingredients, and sauce flavor, making it a great way to compare different Hiroshima styles.
