The Okinawa table — what to order and where the locals point.
Okinawa soba
Pork-rib noodles unlike anywhere in mainland Japan — every town has its shrine to it.
Makishi Market
Naha's 'kitchen' — buy the fish downstairs, they cook it upstairs.
Goya champuru
Bitter-melon stir-fry — the longevity island's signature.
Taco rice
The American-base mashup that became island comfort food.
Awamori & sanshin bars
The island's own rice liquor with live folk strings in Naha's lanes.
