Hiroshima Dining Experience at the Okonomiyaki Heartland
Located approximately a 4-minute walk from Hatchobori Station on the Hiroshima Electric Railway, "Honke Soncho no Mise" stands in Shintenchi, a district known as the home of Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki in Naka Ward, Hiroshima City. Within walking distance of landmarks such as the "Atomic Bomb Dome" and "Peace Memorial Park," the restaurant centers on Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, along with local specialties including oysters, small sardines, and octopus, as well as the regional dish "Beef Kone (brisket) Yaki." The drink selection includes options such as "Setouchi Hiroshima Lemon" sour and local sake, offering a wide variety suited to different occasions, from sightseeing and business trips to after-work visits and group gatherings.
Cooking Style Following the Hiroshima Standard Method
The "Hiroshima standard style," known as "layered grilling," involves spreading a thin batter, topping it with vegetables and pork, flipping it, then placing it over noodles cooked on a griddle and finishing with a crushed egg before flipping again. A variety of toppings, such as cheese and fried squid, are available, along with more elaborate versions topped with large oysters.
Local Specialties and Hiroshima Okonomiyaki on One Table
In addition to Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, the menu features a wide variety of dishes featuring local oysters, including grilled, butter-grilled, and fried oysters. Regional specialties such as "Beef Kone (brisket) Yaki," "Gansu," and "Hiroshima Greens Kimchi" are also available, offering options that pair well alongside okonomiyaki.
