Fukumanen Bekkan is a restaurant where you can taste both Sichuan and Hunan cuisines.
We have invited a professional chef from mainland China to create authentic Sichuan cuisine. We are particular about the ingredients and authentic spices used in our dishes. You can also taste the spicy Hunan cuisine, one of the eight major cuisines in China.
Hunan cuisine is known to be even spicier than Szechuan cuisine.
Fukumanen has also been recognized for its excellent taste and skills among the many Chinese restaurants in Chinatown, winning the second prize at the "Yokohama China Town Food Festival" three years in a row.
For year-end parties, New Year's parties, welcome and farewell parties, and girls' parties , Fukumanen's very reasonably priced courses, starting at 4,000 yen (excluding tax) with all-you-can-drink included, are the perfect choice.
【Sichuan cuisine, one of the four major cuisines of China】
Sichuan cuisine has developed in the inland regions of China, including the Yunnan and Sichuan regions. These regions have large basins and are blessed with an abundance of agricultural products. The inland climate with its extreme heat and cold variations has led to the development of food preservation and storage methods. The famous Sichuan Zha Cai Pickles are a specialty of this region. The region's cuisine is also characterized by the use of many spices and condiments to suit the climate, and by the rich and pungent flavors of its dishes.
Typical dishes are Chen Mapo Tofu and Sichuan-Style Beef in a Spicy Hot Sauce, which are made with Sichuan red chili peppers and Sichuan pepper.
【Hunan cuisine - one of China's eight major cuisines and a very hot and spicy dish】
Hunan cuisine has recently come into the spotlight as the fifth cuisine after the four major Chinese cuisines - Beijing, Shanghai, Cantonese, and Sichuan. Although included in Sichuan cuisine in the broadest sense, Hunan cuisine is said to be even hotter and spicier than Sichuan cuisine. It is a cuisine that practices the "medicine and food share the same origin," which is said to be the origin of food, in daily life. Because the Hunan region does not face the sea, the food is characterized by savory, hot, and sour flavors, such as pickles and hot and spicy seasonings that help preserve ingredients. Hunan is also famous as the birthplace of the late President Mao Zedong.
