Steamed meat dumplings, known as Shumai to the locals, is another Chinese-style street food that you have to try when in Yokohama. You can either savour this delicacy at Seihuro in Yokohama’s Chinatown that is said to serve the best Shumai in the district, or head to the famous Kiyoken where you can even join the popular factory tour to see how the tasty dish is made. But you have to be really lucky to be able to reserve your seat successfully for the popular factory tour that only accepts phone reservations 3 months in advance!
