With its unique 11-layer composition, including a generous amount of cabbage and a layer of grilled noodles, the chefs at Chinchikurin skillfully prepare this flavorful delicacy on teppan grills, providing a captivating dining experience for guests.

Originating from the post-war era, okonomiyaki became a symbol of resilience and nourishment for the people of Hiroshima. Chinchikurin pays homage to this history by offering authentic Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, using Otafuku Okonomi Sauce, a renowned sauce made with over 20 spices and dates. As a result, Chinchikurin has become a popular destination for those seeking a taste of Hiroshima's culinary heritage.
