Best restaurants in Yokohama

Yokohama is thirty minutes from Tokyo and has two things the capital does not: Japan's largest Chinatown, with over 200 restaurants, and iekei ramen, the thick pork-and-soy style with spinach and seaweed that was invented at a single shop near Shin-Yokohama and now has thousands of imitators. The Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum collects regional ramen under one roof, and Noge, a drinking district by Sakuragicho, is one of the best izakaya streets in the Tokyo area.

Yokohama Chinatown is where Tabelog earns its keep: 200 restaurants, most mediocre, a dozen genuinely excellent, and the difference invisible from the street.
