	In Hiroshima, Will Flip for Okonomiyaki (washingtonpost.com)
		Okonomiyaki is a Hiroshima specialty, a remarkable mix of crepe, cabbage, egg and noodles, along with a choice of pork, shrimp or octopus and any number of toppings, including corn, bean sprouts, spring onions, rice cakes, cheese and fish flakes.
		Hiroshima has by some estimates more than 2,000 restaurants that specialize in okonomiyaki, most easily identified by the hot-plate counters at which hungry patrons belly up.
		The taste is a mix of incongruous flavors and consistencies: The crepe is crisp but the noodles remain somewhat softer; the pork is salty but the sauce tangy and a touch sweet; and most of the strongest flavors are balanced by the cabbage and bean sprouts.

		We were in the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, outside a small theater showing almost unbearably gruesome footage of the day, 60 years ago, that my country dropped a nuclear bomb on her city.
		That was the idea from the moment Hiroshima began to rebuild, and today it is one of the most pleasant of all Japanese cities, with expansive parks, wide boulevards, riverside greenbelts and floating restaurants specializing in Hiroshima's prized oysters.
		Hiroshima's most moving symbols of the bomb, of course, are the 50,000 hibakusha, who, along with their counterparts in Nagasaki, are the only living witnesses to nuclear war.

		Although there were military installations in Hiroshima-a few army supply depots, a communications center, and a naval base-it was later revealed that the choice to bomb the city was not made for military reasons.
		Hiroshima was chosen because it was a pristine laboratory to study the power of the explosion and to demonstrate to the world that the US had and would use this new terrible weapon of mass destruction.
