Here, Ayapapa2-san was posting reviews. I've been into flour dishes lately, so when I see a delicious review, I want to go there!! Now, first up, it's time for "Otsukare-nama"!! I'll enjoy my lunchtime drinking while snacking on edamame, tsukune, and seseri. As I was enjoying my lunchtime drink, a regular customer came and smoothly ordered the Setouchi-yaki without even looking at the menu!! Watching the behavior of the advanced customers, I knew for sure that this was a flag for something delicious!! For the main dish, I also followed suit and ordered the Setouchi-yaki. There's plenty of green onions on top, and the oysters are also on top with the green onions, as well as inside. I heard that they use oysters from the Setouchi region. The refreshing scent of lemon is delightful and the sweetness spreads out. The noodles are crispy!! I saw the cooking process, and they sprinkle oil on the noodles to make them crispy. I love the crispy texture of flour dishes and noodles. The menu also states the delicious way to eat with a spatula, so I followed that as I enjoyed my meal. The true joy of okonomiyaki is eating the hot food with a spatula while it's still steaming!! However, the skillful technique of the shop owner's spatula handling is truly amazing. Thank you, Ayapapa-san, for introducing such a delicious restaurant. I hope you will hold a flour dish tasting event after the fried rice tasting event. I enjoyed it very much! Thank you for the meal.

In Sapporo, there are few Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki specialty shops. When I called to confirm their business hours, they mentioned that reservations were possible. I visited on a holiday at 12:00. Although the restaurant does not have a parking lot according to Tabelog, they informed me that there is a nearby affiliated parking lot with 1 hour free parking when I called. The interior of the restaurant had a cozy atmosphere with a teppanyaki counter and table seating. The owner seemed to be handling everything alone and appeared quite busy with takeout orders. However, the service was polite. We ordered the "Lunch Set (1100 yen)" x 2, with a 100 yen discount for registering on LINE, a choice of meatball soba (or meatball udon), and toppings: double noodles (choose from 16 varieties). My companion opted for double eggs and we had all-you-can-drink soft drinks. The dishes arrived in about 10 minutes on iron plates. It's rare to see so much noodles sticking out from the batter in Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. For a moment, it looked like yakisoba with sauce. We used a spatula to eat it. In Hiroshima, they use a spatula, while in Kansai, it's called a scraper. The noodles were properly boiled, but they were quite crispy from being grilled. The otafuku sauce really goes well with Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. The vegetables were steamed well and paired nicely with the crispy noodles. However, personally, I found it a bit too crispy and something was lacking. I think adding the classic Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki topping of squid tempura would have been a good choice. Also, some green onions would have been nice. Overall, considering the price, it was above average in terms of cost performance, but I felt like something was missing in this Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. Next time, I won't forget to add squid tempura as a topping.

Wandering new curry mania / rookie ramen mania, a solo middle-aged man. This is a memo-like review from the old man. If you are looking for concise information about the restaurant and food, please move on to other reviews around here. It's a quick overview, just a quick overview. It's been over 35 years since I was sent to Hiroshima by the company. The period was short, less than a year. At that time, I encountered "Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki." Back then, there was no social media/internet information, and travel shows were not broadcast as much, so when you mentioned "okonomiyaki," "Osaka-style okonomiyaki" was a familiar presence. The shop in front of Seishu High School, "Kazuki," started opening in various places, and I used it for a quick bite after a drive. So, I was surprised because I was not used to it at all. The way it was made, the difficulty in eating it without getting used to it, and eating it as a finish after drinking... Of course, it's not like you eat it with the intention of finishing it. But, when I returned to Sapporo, there were no nearby shops that served it. After a while, shops started popping up, and I had the opportunity to eat it in Sapporo and other places where I was alone, but... I think I might have been too idealistic about the "taste of the distant past." And then, about two years ago, I had the opportunity to eat at a specialized shop for "Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki" on Tanukikoji Street, and I thought, "Oh, it's delicious!" The "Carp sauce" is also a good assist. (But the old man's conclusion is, after all, it's probably "Otafuku.") I'm not a fan of "Osaka-style" okonomiyaki, which I'm used to eating, but I like "Hiroshima-style" because it doesn't feel heavy. So, as I was reminiscing about the past, I happened to see this restaurant being introduced on a local TV show. Oh, I want to try it. Then, shall we go? I went to "Hinachan" in Tanukikoji with a companion who also reacted, "Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki is delicious!" The location is in Kita-ku, Kitajuhachi Nishi 4-chome. The predecessors were also guided there, but it is located on the corner of the T-junction of "Nishi 5-chome, Tarukawa Street" and "Kanjodori." On the opposite side of "Nishi 5-chome, Tarukawa Street," there is Hokkaido University Hospital, so it's one of the landmarks. I entered around 13:30 (Sunday) and there were no customers before or after me. The local program mentioned that they use Hokkaido ingredients for their dishes. (Vegetables, pork, etc.) So, let's take a look at the menu. First of all, it's straightforward to display the prices including tax. Nowadays, displaying prices excluding tax is more eye-catching, but it can make you feel "expensive" when you pay, so it's better this way. ■ Ordinary and orthodox dishes ■ A dish that brings out the Hokkaido-like flavor of "Genghis Khan" ■ A dish that uses lemons and oysters to bring out the Hiroshima/Setouchi-like flavor The prices are similar to those of other shops, I think. Hmm, they seem a bit cheaper. (There may be some difference between including tax/excluding tax... maybe it's the service charge) Oh, they have a "half-size" option. The prices are not simply half of the regular size, but it's a good way to try various dishes. I see, they have a lunch menu. And it doesn't seem to be limited by the day of the week. ◆ Based on a tax-inclusive 900 yen "Nikudama soba/udon," ◆ Add a tax-inclusive 100-200 yen "topping," ◆ Soft drinks are "all-you-can-drink." What! And it's only 1,100 yen including tax! Since okonomiyaki uses sauce, as a person who tends to drink a lot of fluids, I might want to "refill my drink." So I might have to resist. (I think this is not correct Hiroshima dialect) It's nice that "all-you-can-drink" is included in the set price, even though it's self-service (concentrated liquid type). Well, I don't drink three or four cups anyway. (I think this is not correct Hiroshima dialect) If I add toppings and refill soft drinks, I might end up making too much profit. So, I'll try to resist a little bit. [O…

The day before yesterday, I had Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki at Tanukikoji 6-chome, and today I had it at a restaurant located at the intersection of Tarukawa-dori and Kanko-dori in front of Hokkaido University. I arrived just after opening time at 11 o'clock, and there were no other customers. I ordered the lunch set for 1,000 yen, which includes meatball soba or udon with one topping of your choice and all-you-can-drink soft drinks. I added an extra topping of double eggs. The prices here are cheaper than the restaurant I visited the day before, with beer priced at 450 yen for a single order, or an additional 300 yen when ordered with a set. I started with a cup of oolong tea while waiting. The noodles were cooked properly, not the pre-steamed type from a bag, which was nice to see. The menu highlighted the use of Hokkaido cabbage, Tokachi pork, and locally sourced wheat for the noodles. The okonomiyaki was served after about 15 minutes, crispy on the outside but fluffy inside. The noodles were crunchy and the okonomiyaki was cooked with a lot of lard. The sauce was different from what I'm used to, but it was still tasty. I noticed they offer a double noodle option for the lunch set, so I might try the large portion next time. Overall, it was a satisfying meal.

The lunch set with pork and egg soba, with toppings of green onions, and a free drink of melon soda x1 and oolong tea x1 costs 1000 yen. It is said that adults should get 60% of their energy intake from carbohydrates, and this okonomiyaki dish is just that - a balanced mix of vegetables, meat, and noodles. It has plenty of vegetables and a sufficient amount of meat, all flavored with Okonomi sauce. While the taste may be a bit monotonous, it is still delicious. Next time, I definitely want to try the okonomiyaki with oysters and lemon. Thank you for the meal.

On a certain weekday, I found myself at a restaurant that had changed quite a bit since my last visit. This time, it was a Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki restaurant. Since there was no parking available, I parked at a nearby coin parking lot and made my way to the restaurant. The interior of the restaurant was similar to the previous one, but they had installed a new iron plate in the kitchen for making Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. I could sense the determination of the owner, and the staff were working diligently. The background music was playing on the FM radio. From the menu, I decided to go for the "Lunch Set" which seemed like a better deal than ordering individual items. It included "Niku Soba" with free toppings of "extra noodles" and "all-you-can-drink soft drink" for 1000 yen including tax. The chef was using a spatula from "Otaku" which added to the authenticity. I took a bite and was pleasantly surprised by the crispy texture of the noodles, which set it apart from other places. The thick noodles were a hit with those who like ankake-style yakisoba, and ordering extra noodles was a good choice. The sauce and mayonnaise were lightly seasoned, and you could adjust the flavor using the condiments provided. The tempura bits added a nice umami flavor, and the dish was filled with vegetables like cabbage, bean sprouts, and Tokachi pork, making it feel light and guilt-free. The drink was served from a Suntory dispenser, and personally, I wished there was something other than unsweetened oolong tea. Overall, I think this Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki restaurant has its own unique charm and I hope more people in the area get to experience it. Thank you for the meal.

I visited around 1 pm on a weekday. There was only one group of two customers. The place was not crowded. You can choose to sit at the counter or a table, and they cook the food on a hot plate in front of you. I prefer sitting at the counter where I can watch the food being cooked. I ordered the meat soba with double noodles and squid topping, which cost 1050 yen. The soba had a crispy texture and was delicious, giving a taste of authentic Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. I definitely want to come back, and in fact, I returned just one week later.

It's a small shop with a big teppan, and the owner works hard to make delicious Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. When you order the one with noodles, you'll be surprised. The noodles are boiled on the spot, then fried on the teppan with plenty of lard to make them crispy and flavorful. I asked for shrimp as a topping, and there were plenty of big, juicy shrimp. The lunch set comes with all-you-can-drink soft drinks for 1000 yen, which is a great deal. The shop is clean and the food is really delicious, so I highly recommend it. Many shops in this location don't last long, so I hope this one does well. I'm worried they might move to a bigger location if they become too popular.

This is a newly opened okonomiyaki restaurant run by a shop owner from Hiroshima. The interior is small but has a clean and bright atmosphere that makes it easy for women to visit. The menu includes the typical meat and seafood okonomiyaki, as well as unique options like "donsanko-yaki" and "Setouchi-yaki". I believe you can choose between soba or udon noodles. They also offer other dishes like "tonpei-yaki" and "horumon-yaki". There is alcohol available, and for soft drinks, they have a drink bar. This time, I ordered the Setouchi-yaki. It was loaded with plenty of oysters on top and inside! Plus, a generous amount of green onions and a squeeze of lemon on top - it was a great combination! It may not look like a lot at first, but it's actually quite filling as you eat. The owner mentioned that they plan to expand the menu further, so I look forward to that (^^)

It opened on September 16, 2020 ♪ A Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki restaurant that is not often seen in Sapporo♪ It may be well-known now, but over 30 years ago, even if a restaurant opened, it would not last long and would disappear one after another (´･ω･｀) As a fan of Hiroshima-style, I really hope they do well. I ordered the lunch set for 1,000 yen with extra mochi topping on the meat tamasoba♪ It also comes with a soft drink bar. It's nice to have a drink bar included♪ The owner is from Hiroshima and used to live in Sapporo, but returned to Hiroshima once for training before opening this restaurant. The way they make okonomiyaki is skillful, and they boil the noodles instead of using steamed noodles. I also liked the mochi topping. They use Otafuku sauce. I wonder when they started offering pepper and chili peppers as condiments? (laughs) It was delicious. Thank you for the meal♪

I had the lunch set (meat soba with extra vegetables + all-you-can-drink soft drink) and it was delicious. The noodles were crispy and tasty. Personally, I prefer the fluffy Osaka-style okonomiyaki, but overall it was good.

A friend moving to Hiroshima, so I went to buy a farewell gift today. At lunch, I felt like eating Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, so I moved here. The Setouchi-yaki with plenty of oysters and lemon as a standout was doing an excellent job.

All the staff will grill it right there. I had to wait for 1 hour from ordering to arrival. If you have to wait for an hour, I wish they would tell you when you enter the restaurant. It was definitely delicious.

June 2021, Meatball Soba for 750 yen on Kitadaimae Street. Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki shop San. Takeout for a snack. Maroyoshi's classic "meatball" soba or udon to choose from. The noodles are soba by choice. Toppings are... saving money. Crispy fried noodles with plenty of sweet cabbage. Surprisingly light and healthy despite appearances! No mayo or bonito flakes, comes with a small packet of Otafuku sauce. Appetizers and evening drink sets available. How about a cold beer with it? Thank you for the meal.

On the way home from work, I suddenly felt the urge to eat okonomiyaki that day. Even after returning home and being busy, I decided to order delivery. Then I remembered this place, not too far from home, but I hadn't been able to go since it opened. When I entered the Wolt delivery area on my way home, I quickly opened the menu and placed an order. It was my first time, so I started with the classic pork and cabbage okonomiyaki. This place also offers a choice of soba or udon noodles, so this time I chose soba. Shortly after returning home, the okonomiyaki arrived. Since the restaurant is close to my house, the okonomiyaki was still warm, so I decided to eat it before it cooled down. The pork and cabbage okonomiyaki had a crispy surface, which I really liked. The thinly cooked batter was chewy, and the eggs were perfectly cooked, not too dry. The sweet and savory okonomiyaki sauce was spread on top, but it also came with additional okonomiyaki sauce on the side, which was a nice touch. The tender pork belly added a delicious flavor, and the crunchy bean sprouts and plenty of cabbage provided a satisfying texture. The natural sweetness of the cabbage also enhanced the overall taste. About 10 years ago, there used to be a Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki restaurant called "Tetsu" in this area, which I frequented for nearly 20 years. I'm glad that a new delicious Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki restaurant has opened nearby. Many restaurants in this area don't last long, so I hope this one does well. Thank you for the meal!

I had lunch at a new Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki restaurant on 15th Street near Hokkaido University. It seems like there is a Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki boom happening in Sapporo, as I recently visited another new restaurant a little further north. Anyway, I love Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, so I will continue to enjoy it without complaining. I visited around noon on the weekend, and the restaurant was packed. Luckily, I was able to get a table as one group was leaving. It seems like the 1,000 yen lunch with all-you-can-drink drinks is popular. The basic set includes pork okonomiyaki, one topping, and a drink (all-you-can-drink). I chose squid and shrimp as toppings and enjoyed a ginger ale while watching the staff work on the hot plate. The staff, who seemed to be the owner and his mother, were very busy. The mother struggled with the new cash register, so the owner was doing his best to manage everything. They hardly had any chopsticks in the restaurant, so it took a while to get our food. The staff was also handling takeout orders and deliveries, so it was quite chaotic. The okonomiyaki finally arrived on a hot and round griddle. The sauce alone made my mouth water. The owner struggled to cut the okonomiyaki into pieces with small spatulas, but eventually succeeded. The noodles in the okonomiyaki were a bit too hard, but overall, it was delicious. I enjoyed the meal with plenty of drinks and felt satisfied. Okonomiyaki is always enjoyable, and I appreciate the abundance of cabbage in Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience.
