Okonomi-mura (お好み村, literally "Okonomiyaki Village") is a Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki food theme park located at 5-13 Shintenchi in Naka-ku, Hiroshima, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. It is near the east end of Hondōri and has over 25 okonomiyaki restaurants, each with a slightly different style and set of ingredients. The restaurants there use a specialty okonomiyaki sauce created especially for Okonomi-mura by Sun Foods.
The Nihon Keizai Shimbun reported that Okonomi-mura was the top food theme park destination for families in Japan according to an April 2004 poll.
Okonomi-mura is located at 5-13 Shintenchi in Naka-ku, Hiroshima, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan, near the east end of Hondōri. [1] Following the atomic bombing of the city in August 1945, the issen yōshoku (一銭洋食, lit. "one-coin Western food"), a thin pancake topped with green onions and bonito flakes or shrimp that had gained popularity in Hiroshima prior to the war, became a cheap way for the surviving residents to have food to eat. [2] The Shintenchi area became a place where many of these shops began going beyond the original ingredients and making it "cooked how you like it" (お好み焼き, okonomiyaki). [2] This area is where the Okonomi-mura building was eventually built. [2]
Okonomi-mura is accessible from Hatchobori Station on the Hiroden Main and Hiroden Hakushima Lines. It is located about a 3-5 minutes walk (1,400 feet (430 m)) south-southwest of the station, just off Chūō-dōri. From the Hiroden Main Line Hondōri Station, it is about a 6-8 minute walk (1,900 feet (580 m)) southeast of the station.
Okonomimura has over 25 okonomiyaki restaurants as of April 2020 [update], each with a slightly different style and set of ingredients. [2] The restaurants are spread across four floors of the building. [2] It was the top food theme park destination for families in Japan according to an April 2004 poll. [3] [4] Sunfoods created a specialty okonomiyaki sauce used exclusively by the restaurants in Okonomi-mura. [5]
