The liquor is mainly sake, low-class distilled spirits, and of course beer, and the food is mostly grilled chicken and different kinds of fish, like sashimi; generally in winter, cookpot dishes and warm ones like Japanese hotchpotch are added. Red lanterns often hang at the entrance, so izakaya are also known by another name--"red lantern." In cities, white-collar workers on their way home from work often stop there to drink with colleagues and friends, and recently working women, too, have been stopping in more and more.
Since these are on wheels so that a person can pull, they can be described as mobile restaurants with roof attached. Most of them are set up on busy streets and in front of stations, and they specialize in the kind of food they serve--mainly, ramen(a Chinese brand of noodle), Japanese hotchpotch or grilled chicken.They usually serve alcoholic drinks, so they can also be called as mobile pubs. In addition, the term also refers to transportable stalls in the shape of a small house, used for selling things at festivals.
