Hiroshima, Japan

Hiroshima is famous for its unique style of okonomiyaki, which layers ingredients like cabbage, bean sprouts, noodles, egg, and your choice of meat or seafood instead of mixing everything together. It's one of the city's signature dishes and an absolute must-try during your visit.

Whenever I bring friends or family to Hiroshima, I always take them to Nagataya. Located just a short walk from Atomic Bomb Dome, it's a local favorite known for its delicious Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki and welcoming atmosphere.

If there's a wait, don't worry—it's well worth it. Watching your meal being prepared on the teppan is part of the experience, and it's a memorable way to enjoy one of Hiroshima's most iconic dishes.

Try to line up a little after 10:30 am. Nagataya tends to get packed!
