Hiroshima okonomiyaki is a Japanese pancake famous for its unique preparation compared to other regions.

Then, the pancake is covered with a rich okonomiyaki sauce and sprinkled with dried seaweed and bonito flakes. This dish has a distinct Hiroshima flavor and is a culinary experience not to be missed when visiting here.
