Chengdu is becoming more and more international, and we can see crooked nuts from all over the world. It is precisely because of this that we can eat delicious food from all over the world in addition to hot pot and string.
Today, Fei Jie will take you into authentic Japanese shops, because most of these shops are run by Japanese.
At 7: 15, Fei Jie came to the shabby big world commercial plaza behind Carrefour, which can be said to be a Japanese gathering place. Most of the people who came here spoke foreign languages, or they talked about finding a place to sit in groups in suits and ties.
For the vast majority of Japanese in Chengdu, this corner, which consists of only a few dilapidated narrow alleys, is more like their hometown than many Japanese restaurants in Chengdu with exquisite decoration and fine food.
Several restaurants with different styles, such as izakaya and Japanese clubs, have completed their yearning for their hometown more than 3,000 kilometers away.

Fei Jie followed the crowd, entered through the main entrance and went straight. The alley was a little dark, but you could faintly see the dense orange lights not far away. Approached, you can see a children's facility, and these large and small Japanese food shops and izakaya are distributed around it.
So, they turned into their familiar shops, ordered some Japanese kebabs, egg rolls, octopus balls, a pot of sake ..., and in the taste, they finally returned to their respective Japanese towns.
Different from other Japanese restaurants in Chengdu, the bosses here are basically Japanese. They are warm and thoughtful, and greet each other with the joy of meeting again in a foreign country. The boss clearly knows the preferences of every old customer, and occasionally meets the hometown delicacies sent from Japan, and generously invites everyone to taste them together. The decoration in the shop is clean, warm and breezy. The sliding door with wooden frame and paper paste, comfortable tatami, and bar-shaped dining table for face-to-face communication with the boss are very popular.
Private string
The proprietress of private skewers always smiles, and their kebabs and bartending attract the taste buds of every Japanese. Oolong tea, which is suitable for girls, and Corbis, which boys must order, have been mixed for less than half an hour, and the Japanese uncle sitting next to him has ordered two large glasses in a row. With the side dishes and kebabs, uncle's expression is a little awkward. What should he think of? Fei Jie doesn't know.
A group of people in the seat next door had a good talk, and occasionally someone raised a glass to show that the waitress understood. There are guests' wine on the shelf in the hall, and the owner's name is attached to the bottle.
The proprietress said, "There are so many Japanese in Chengdu that they are used to coming here after work every day."
Niaofu
The word "bird" is often regarded as "island" in the opposite side of the private string. Compared with private skewers, there are more baked goods here, such as roast chicken platter and vegetable tempura platter, and there are chef's special dishes every day.
If the private string is a place for drinking and chatting late at night, the bird is more like a place for family gathering, which is both open and private.
When Fei Jie went, she happened to meet a Japanese woman riding a bicycle to find her husband and daughter. The family left with each other, talking and laughing. Perhaps, wherever there is a family, there is home.
Heyang cuisine Huanting
Hidden in the corner of the Heyang Cuisine Pavilion, there is a simulated cherry blossom at the door, and several lanterns are hung, which makes people feel warm. Pushing open the door, the waiter shouted in authentic Japanese: "Welcome". There were Japanese programs on the wall TV, and Japanese posters, magazines and cartoons occupied every corner of the store.
The boss is a fan, and he often asks his old friends in the store to join the team, so there are many photos of them playing together in the hall. Perhaps because the boss is not Japanese, everything in the shop represents Japanese culture. Compared with the previous two, it looks like a great collection of Japanese culture, and the dishes can't be said that there are many choices, but what is rare is the boss's intention and its own Japanese appearance.
"The Lonely Gourmet" said: When he fills his stomach happily without being bound by time and society, he can be free as he pleases in that short time. This aloof behavior is the best cure that modern people are given equally.
We seek a sense of belonging through taste memory and narrow our strangeness with the city. Chengdu, a city with a healing system, always tries its best to give warmth to different races scattered in this city silently.
Qinba is a beautiful country, and we will work together with you to create a better life!
