Okonomimura stacks more than twenty okonomiyaki counters over three floors in Shintenchi, the block Hiroshima's postwar griddle stalls moved into in 1965.
TryHiroshima okonomiyaki
TipEvery floor is a corridor of griddle counters; pick a stall with locals at it rather than the one nearest the lift.
Ekimae Hiroba gathers more than a dozen okonomiyaki cooks on the sixth floor of the Full Focus building, three minutes' walk from Hiroshima Station.

TipCounters here run from 11:00 to 23:00 every day of the year, far wider than most okonomiyaki hours elsewhere in the city.
The Ujina kaki-goya is Hiroshima's waterfront oyster hut, a shed on Minato Park where you grill your own shells between October and the start of May.
TryGrilled oysters
TipThe site becomes a barbecue garden from mid-May, so the oyster hut only exists in the colder half of the year.
Nishikido fills its momiji manju in-house with Tokachi red beans, and the Hikarimachi flagship stacks the classics beside chewy rice-flour nama momiji.
TryMomiji manju and chewy nama momiji
TipThe flagship is a five minute walk from Hiroshima Station and opens every day of the year, an easier momiji manju stop than the Miyajima queues.
Musubi Musashi's counter in ekie DINING at Hiroshima Station presses komachi, inaka and wakadori musubi to eat in or carry onto the Shinkansen.
TryHand-pressed musubi and takeaway bento
TipIt closes Mondays, sliding to Tuesday when a holiday lands on the Monday; the boxed musubi travel well for the ride to Miyajima or Osaka.
