We’ve made it to Hiroshima!

Hiroshima Prefecture

Hiroshima Okonomiyaki 広島風お好み焼き

I previously introduced okonomiyaki as a famous food of Osaka, but Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki is different as, rather than being mixed together, it is served in layers and contains noodles. Trust me, it’s as filling as it looks!


Tantan Noodles with no Soup 汁なし担々麺

As you have probably realised by now on this race, the vast majority of noodles in Japan come with some form of soup, or drinkable sauce. Hiroshima is famous for these noodles that are served with neither. Flavours vary from place to place, but they are generally served hot, topped with meat and an egg.


Hassaku Orange ハッサク

This orange, native to Japan and particularly famous in Hiroshima Prefecture, has a specifically sour and bitter taste. It is available raw, as a juice, and as a pulp to be added to other foods.
