After my visit to Kenroku-en Gardens I was looking to get lunch before heading into Kanazawa Castle.
As I was walking to Ishikawa Gate I walked past a small selection of restaurants just below the gardens.

Yakitori Akiyoshi, Hiroshima, Japan
Nagata-ya, Hiroshima, Japan
About 50 metres from the Atomic Bomb Hypocentre memorial is an okonomiyaki restaurant that always has a queue.
I stopped by this restaurant on my first visit to Hiroshima in 2015, back then I just walked in at lunch and was quickly seated and served.

Okonomiyaki is a Japanese savory pancake mainly associated with Hiroshima and the Kansai area.
While you can get Okonomiyaki at any number of restaurants in Hiroshima, the mecca is the vertical village called Okonomi-mura in central Hiroshima that houses 24 Okonomiyaki restaurants all cooking the dish in their own special way.

Yakitori Daikichi, Kyoto, Japan
It was my last evening in Kyoto and I wanted to finish off 4 great days with a good meal. As I had had curry for lunch I decided to try to find a Yakatori restaurant that wasn’t too far from my hotel.
The usual review sites were consulted and it turned out there was a reasonable restaurant about 150m away, just across the road.
