Although Oden in Kanto became out of fashion afterward, when the Great Kanto Earthquake occurred in 1923, 'Kanto daki' (関東煮) was distributed by volunteers from Kansai, which led to the re-establishment of Oden in Tokyo.
その後関東のおでんは廃れていくが、関東大震災（1923年）の時、関西から救援に来た人たちの炊き出しで「関東煮」が振る舞われたことから東京でもおでんが復活することになる。
