| Okinawan cuisine: The Japanese food you don't know Posted: 27 Jan 2013 01:56 PM PST It may be in Japan, but Okinawa is in a culinary and healthy eating zone of its own Article Page Don't expect to find yakitori at a typical Okinawa restaurant. Or sushi. Japan's southernmost prefecture has its own unique food culture, the result of both its location and complex history. The islands that make up Okinawa were once part of an independent state called the Ryukyu Kingdom, which reigned from the 15th to 19th century. The kingdom was an important trading hub linking China, Japan, Korea and Southeast Asia. All those gastronomic influences helped form the cuisine that's still served in Okinawa restaurants today.
