Yatai (Food Stalls)
Immediately after World War II, easily movable food-and-drink stalls appeared one after another in the devastated townscapes; this was the beginning of yatai. They are a nighttime specialty of Hakata, and are dotted all over Fukuoka City. Here, you can eat foods such as ramen, gyoza, oden, tempura, and fried foods.
