Nagasaki, Japan｜Enjoy two Nagasaki specialties at once

Friends who are going to Nagasaki Inasayama to see the night view, you might as well plan to have dinner at the Hikari Restaurant on the lower floor of the observatory. It happens that you can eat two Nagasaki specialties, long stick noodles and Turkish rice. If you have a hard time choosing, just have a meal of both 😂😂 Since Nagasaki was one of the earliest ports in Japan to open up to foreign exchanges, its food culture is often mixed with foreign flavors. Champon is one of the dishes with Japanese-Chinese variations. The soup base uses Japanese pork bone soup, and the side dishes are stir-fried seafood and vegetables using the Chinese hot stir-fry method. With the addition of special noodles, you can taste the wok aroma of Chinese dishes and the fragrance of pork bone soup. It seems simple, but it is not easy to combine the two things well. Turkish rice is even more magical, and has nothing to do with Turkey at all 😂 There are many theories about the origin of the name. The more interesting one is that pasta represents Europe, curry rice represents Asia, and the fried pork chop in the middle is like Turkey, which spans the Eurasian continent. I admire the Japanese spirit of doing things seriously, combining two completely unrelated dishes and making them delicious. Of course, I think Japanese ingredients also have a plus point, such as fried pork chop and pearl rice, which you can't taste in other countries. 💸Turkish rice + soup + drink 1600 yen / Champon noodles 1100 yen 📍 Hikari no Restoran (Light's Restaurant)/Food Belog 3.28 Address: 2F, Inasayama Observatory, 364 Inasa-cho, Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture #Japan and Korea City Attractions #Japan Travel #Japanese Food #foodphotography #Food Tour #Food Guide
