Do you know about TABEARUKI? The term refers to buying food at a shop and enjoying it while walking around or outdoors. In Yokohama Chinatown, TABEARUKI is incredibly popular, with visitors strolling the streets while savoring delicious treats. One of the most famous TABEARUKI spots is Yoseigo (耀盛號) is very popular TABEARUKI spot. Established in 1946 as a Chinese food store, Yoseigo has become a cornerstone of Yokohama Chinatown. Today, nearly every souvenir shop in the area sells their products.
When it comes to Yoseigo, their Harinezumi-man (ハリネズミまん) is a must-try item. This adorable, hedgehog-shaped sweet dim sum is a crowd favorite.
Alongside Harinezumi-man, their sesame dumplings, baked BBQ pork buns, and egg tarts are also highly sought after. Most items are reasonably priced at just ¥120–¥200 per piece, and they also offer value packs with six pieces.
I decided to try only the Harinezumi-man. While some people enjoyed theirs right in front of the shop, I walked to a nearby park to take photos of this cute treat.
Harinezumi is, Hedgehog. Small and cute. It was fried deeply and outside was crisp and sweet.
“Harinezumi” means hedgehog in Japanese, and this dim sum lives up to its name with its small, adorable appearance. Deep-fried to perfection, the outside is crispy and slightly sweet, while the inside is filled with a rich custard cream.
Even if you don’t eat it immediately, it stays delicious for hours, making it a great option to take home as a souvenir.
