Miyajima
For participants who have selected the lunch option, Okonomiyaki will be served on Miyajima Island.
Hiroshima Okonomiyaki is a distinct regional version of the Japanese savory pancake. Unlike the Osaka style where ingredients are mixed, Hiroshima's version features layered components.
A batter base is cooked on a griddle, followed by layers of shredded cabbage, pork, and noodles, then topped with okonomiyaki sauce, bonito flakes, and optional mayonnaise.
It is a flavorful and satisfying dish enjoyed by many.
A vegetarian Okonomiyaki option, without pork or bonito flakes, is available upon request when booking.
Please note: Vegan, halal, or gluten-free options are not available. If you require such meals, please select the 'Without lunch' option and arrange your own food.
