In the midst of Yokohama's neighborhoods, there is an area known as Yokohama Chukagai (Yokohama Chinatown) where visitors are transported into another world.
There’s nothing wrong with chuuka cuisine (Japanese-style Chinese cuisine), Panda Express will forever be in our hearts and Yokohama really has it nailed.
Chinatown is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Yokohama City, and as one of the largest Chinatowns in Asia, it offers many restaurants and food stands to get a great bite to eat. Picking a place to have a nice lunch or dinner can be overwhelming in such a place, but Setsuei has you covered.
You have to eat at Din Tai Fung. That was a tip recently given to me prior to a trip to Taipei. The words of wisdom came from a friend who, despite being a vegetarian, still craves the pork soup dumplings at this famous Taiwanese restaurant.
There are a few signs around the town of Akiu which are neither creepy, nor funny, but surely memorable. Anyone that travels along route 62 towards the famous hot spring town from Sendai is sure to see a few large, bright signs of an elderly man giving you a thumbs up.
