Hiroshima, Japan｜Takada

It feels like a neighborhood okonomiyaki restaurant that has been around for a long time. It's right next to Aeon Mall Hiroshima Gion, and there were a few new customers. It's very filling for the price and will fill you up. The inside of the store has a retro Showa feel. Please give it a try if you are in the area. There is also a parking lot.

The shop is located on the corner of a residential area just off the main street on the west side of Aeon Mall Gion. When I came here before, it was full of customers, and I think it was probably a reservation or a takeaway, but I gave up because I was told that it would be several hours later if I received an order from now, so this time I gave up. I disturbed you by moving the However, the customers were still showing their popularity. When you enter the shop, there is an iron plate in the middle of the earthen floor, and an old man on the other side holds a spatula and says, "Welcome!" There were a few seats in front of the iron plate and a few seats that were made to look like a counter by moving the table to the window. There are colored papers, carp-related notices and calendars on the walls, which also add to the atmosphere and increase the sense of intimacy. It was a very hot day, but the entrance was open, and the air conditioning seemed to have limited effectiveness, but when I sat at the window seat, there was a desk mini cooler on the table, which was helpful. I was. When I entered the store, I was asked "Is it an iron plate or a plate?" But when it gets cooler, I'd like to eat in front of the iron plate. The size of the okonomiyaki with meat balls is SS and 3S under S, so I guessed that it was rather large. There were traces of L and LL removed from the menu table, and I imagined that there were many people who couldn't eat it because it was too big. After waiting for 10 minutes, the okonomiyaki on the plate arrived. Big as expected. There was also a normal regular size in S. I wasn't confident about using a spatula, so when I put my chopsticks in, I was surprised to find that the dough at the bottom was thick and firm. The dough is so thin that it doesn't feel like there are many shops, but the texture was also fun and impressive. Noodles are dusty rather than baked. There was plenty of cabbage, but when I saw it being grilled, it was pressed with an iron and compressed, making it feel condensed. Another thing that stood out was the tenkasu. It was big, had a strong taste, and had a solid texture, giving it a strong presence as a single ingredient. It was a feeling that the green seaweed was on and the sauce was less so that you could add it as you like. It was easy to eat that it came out cut from the beginning on the plate. It was very delicious. I thought that there were 3 people in the shop, which was a lot, but looking at the writing on the wall calendar, it seems that there are many orders, and I saw an online article that they were busy after being introduced on TV. . It must be a very popular store now. However, while I was there, it was very lively with regular customers talking about super local topics. People who are particular about okonomiyaki may say things like, "Okonomiyaki is cooked on an iron plate, with a spatula, and you have to put up with the heat." I was happy that the customer's eyes reminded me of the neighborhood aunt's shop that I used to go to.

Old-fashioned nostalgic okonomiyaki. It was delicious. It seems that he got busy because he appeared in Bananaman, but I want him to do his best because there are more and more private shops in the neighborhood. By the way, S size is enough for me. Much bigger than other stores. The okonomiyaki I had on the iron plate in midsummer made me sweat. Thank you for the meal.
