Japan’s B-kyū gurume(Casual dining) refers to dishes that, while not high-end, are loved by the local people and can be enjoyed casually. Many of the menus feature original recipes using local specialties and seasonal ingredients, allowing you to savor flavors unique to each region.

Focused on affordable and casual dining, these meals are commonly served at food stalls, diners, and small restaurants. With familiar dishes like ramen, takoyaki, and okonomiyaki, there are different variations across regions.

One of the appealing aspects of Casual dining is that many of the dishes reflect the local culture and history. When visiting a region, you can enjoy the same dining experience as the local people, adding to the charm of the area.
