Another important feature of the national cuisine is an abundance of seafood. Virtually every national restaurant will offer oysters; chefs prepare them in a wide variety of ways. Oysters with lemon and soy sauce are considered to be the true classics; those who are fond of more savory treats would appreciate oysters cooked in oil. Yellowtail rockfish, squid and octopus are among favorites in local menus; in the first half of the year anchovies are served in local restaurants.
Ramen noodles are local classics; they are cooked with chicken and various vegetable mixtures. Fans of treats would like the most tender tsukimen meat noodles with juicy chunks of meat and gourmet sauces.
Hassei is considered to be one of the best restaurants in the city; its visitors can taste all possible kinds of national foods and drinks. The name of the Okonomimura restaurant speaks for itself; popular flatbreads are cooked there in dozens of variations.

It’s worth noting that local restaurants have very attractive prices; the average bill rarely exceeds 10 euros.
