Kirk here with news about Kumamoto Yataimura (熊本屋台村). I was completely unaware of the establishment of this collection of yatai (food stalls?) until I saw a brief segment on TV about how the number one word used in combination with 熊本 (Kumamoto) to search on Google this year was 屋台村 (Yataimura). Then, I happened to be downtown yesterday, and there it was (the photo you see is one I took with my phone).
I searched on the web and was able to find a list of five top searches with 熊本 here (see attached screenshot): https://kurumefan.com/google-ranking2022#47-4
Yataimura looks very inviting, but I didn’t have time to eat there. Anyone willing to report on your experiences there?
By the way, number five on the list is Yes Mart, a new Korean food store.
