Himeji style is to eat oden with ginger soy sauce. Such Himeji oden has become a cute cake. The three types of cakes, konjac, egg, and chikuwa, are made with ingredients from around Himeji. It has a shelf life of 6 days, so it will be a great souvenir. There is a shop near the castle, so you can enjoy taking a commemorative photo with Himeji Castle in the background.

The most ordered topping is 'beef sinew'. When you hold a camera, the hostess will direct timing with saying 'Take now!'.

Himeji's specialty 'Himeji Oden' with soy sauce mixed with ground ginger. You can eat this in front of the view of a World Heritage, Himeji Castle at this restaurant. Oden, tastes good as it is, with sharpness and depth, which is very delicious local food.◎Located on 4th floor of a cultural facility, I was surprised the restaurant was in it. For a restaurant is directed by a hotel, its hospitality and taste are nice same as the view.
