The Food When you are in Japan, Chinese food is usually not the first choice that comes to mind. But my friends and I found a particular restaurant close by call Chahan Hana. It was highly rated so we decided to give it a try. We ordered a few dishes.

• pepper fried rice
• mabodoufu
• fried egg plant with Chinese chili sauce
• fried chicken The pepper fried rice was good, it actually went well with the maboduofu. The fried egg plant with Chinese chili sauce was not bad, a bit too much sauce. The highlight was actually the fried chicken. It was light battered but still have a good crispiness to it. They also gave us complimentary vegetable soup, though the soup was a bit too salty. It was interesting to see that the standard portion size was smaller. But since is Japan I guess it makes sense. All in all, the food was good, though I would not say is as hyped up as some of the other reviews.

The Miscellaneous The restaurant is in a typical corner location with some interesting decor. You might not pay too much attention to it or know is highly rated till you look it up. The inside is not super big, but has some compelling decor (photos of all customers visited?) The service and staff were good as you might expect from Japan. Though the wait time for our food was fairly long for a few dishes. Their menu has a good variety of items, but is not so big that is overwhelming. Prices are also not too bad, and with a little extra, you can also get an upsize. It is worth checking out the restaurant if you happen to be in the area.
