Near JR Ashiya Station, the Chinese restaurant “CHI・i・NA (チィナ)”, located on the first floor of Alpa Ashiya along Ekimae-dori, is apparently opening “CHI・i・NA HANARE (チィナ ハナレ)” next door to its current location on Thursday, December 18〜

↑It is on the first floor of Alpa Ashiya along Ekimae-dori. The current “CHI・i・NA” restaurant is immediately to the left, and the shoe store “エリーゼ” is to the right.

↑Head this way (east) and you’ll pass “グランディール・ドゥ・ワカクサ,” “ALMARZA,” the CHI・i・NA sister restaurant “hola,” “おくだ酒店,” and “多古好,” before reaching JR Ashiya Station.

↑Head the other way (west) and you’ll find “芦屋鳥きよ,” “ナワ シャンティ,” “Haku to Sumi,” “キュベクルール,” and “ラリーブ芦屋.” This direction leads toward the Ashiyagawa River and Taisho Bridge.

↑Across the street are “きものロードMICHIKO,” “エミュールバレエスクール,” “ALEGRE・HAIRRESORT,” and “焼肉はなな,” among others.
In Closing
Casual dining at a table or counter is great, but a private room is always nice when you want to relax with family and friends—or have a lively time together without worrying about those around you〜. The main restaurant is already popular, so “HANARE” looks set to be bustling too♪
