This tour offers a unique way to experience Hiroshima’s iconic okonomiyaki by focusing on comparison rather than just eating. Instead of visiting a single restaurant, you will explore two different shops in one location, allowing you to taste and understand differences in cooking style, ingredients, and flavor. What makes this experience special is its setting. By staying within Okonomimura or Ekimae Hiroba, the tour removes unnecessary travel and maximizes time for tasting and comparison. These locations bring together multiple chefs under one roof, each with their own technique and style. With a local guide, you will also learn about the history of okonomiyaki, from its postwar origins to its role as Hiroshima’s soul food. Rather than simply eating, this tour helps you understand the culture behind the dish.
Prices are per person when two book together; a solo traveller pays $122.

Hiroshima is known for its unique style of okonomiyaki, a savory pancake that reflects the city’s history and daily life. Unlike Kansai-style, where ingredients are mixed, Hiroshima-style is layered with batter, cabbage, meat, noodles, and egg. This method developed after World War II, when affordable meals were needed during recovery. After the war, food stalls spread across the city, and okonomiyaki became a popular local dish. Over time, each shop developed its own techniques and flavors, creating subtle differences that define Hiroshima’s food culture. Okonomimura, in the city center, brings together many small shops, making it easy to compare different styles in one place. In contrast, Hiroshima Station’s Ekimae Hiroba offers a more local setting, where residents regularly enjoy okonomiyaki. Together, these locations show both the cultural and everyday sides of Hiroshima’s okonomiyaki.
