Peking Hanten - Japan

I recommend going one of their vegan Bao to sell them. It is hard to find vegan street food in Chukagai and my lotus seeds Bao was delicious. You also have a vegan menu in the restaurant and I ate a touching frit before. It was good, but could have been a bigger part tbh. Still not bad when you're here. It is conveniently located next to the entrance of Chinatown.

It was nice, thank you! Hard to find everything vegan in China Town.

Losing your way in Yokohama Chinatown is easy, but this restaurant is conveniently located by the East Gate and accessible from Minatomirai Line Exit 1. We ordered the Spicy Aubergine with mushrooms, mixed vegetables on Sizzling Rice, and Tofu Skin Roll with vegetables, all of which were delicious. The portions were generous enough to share between 2-3 people, and the staff members were friendly and helpful. The first floor has a casual atmosphere with round tables for larger groups, while the second floor is more suited for formal occasions.

Good Bao necks to pull out. Also eat in the restaurant. Was delicious, but not cheap

This review is for the chukaman that are sold outside the restaurant I am a sucker for Chinese-style bun chukaman , and finding vegan buns are no walk in the park. Knowing that Peking Hanten does four different vegan chukaman minus the plain ones , I ended up coming almost every weekend to try them fresh out of the steamer. If you want to eat them the next day or store them in the fridge, you can ask for a cold one, which is their default option. However, if your desired chukaman is not available hot, you have to wait for 3-10 minutes. They sell two different variants of chukaman: sweet which are all vegan and savoury only the vegetable bun is vegan . The bun itself is fluffy and thick; it took me 2-3 bites before reaching the filling. However, there are plenty of fillings in the middle, especially the sweet variant. Since they were quite big in size, the vegetable bun 野菜まん, consists of Chinese cabbage, mushrooms, carrots, bamboo shoots, bok choy, and vermicelli is a great option for lunch on the go. However, since the vegetable stuffing were stir-fried first, it can be a bit watery and loose, which makes the bun a bit soggy in the middle. The vegetarians can also pair this bun with tapioca milk tea which they sell for 300円 as a dessert option. For the sweet variant, I found the lotus seed and white beans はすの実の白あん has a more subtle sweetness compared to its sister, the date black beans なつめの黒あん , which made my pancreas wanted to give up. But you should not miss the classic anman; although it is more expensive than the regular ones along Chinatown, I gotta say, Peking Hanten has the best anman in Yokohama. In summary, don't miss this spot when visiting Yokohama Chinatown between autumn and winter. Especially when you still have a spare stomach to be filled with fluffiness and warmth. visited between October to November 2021 Updated from previous review on 2021-11-30
