I still can’t believe I had the privilege to spend 2 weeks in November traveling around in Japan and I know I’m not alone about this feeling but Japan absolutely blew my mind there’s so much I want to share about this magical trip that I almost don’t know where to begin

But I thought what better way to start off than with some of my most memorable food experiences in Tokyo so without wasting any more time let’s get started after our pretty late arrival in Shinjuku we were off to eat our first out of what was about to become many

Raman meals in Japan after some queuing we had our first awkward interaction with one of these self-ordering systems that is common in Japan we then got to fill out our preferences before it was finally time to try out this popular tonkatsu Ramen SM we played a lot of Persona 5 this year so obviously we had to visit Sanaya which is yonga in the game Over Before ending this nerdy little Adventure in this charming neighborhood we tried out what seemed to be a popular lunch spot in the area I really enjoyed the authentic atmosphere here but as you might tell by my lack of reaction I was a big fan of this particular Ramen to compensate for that we headed off to Shibuya where we bought some donuts at this hyped up place before walking to yogi park who it’s good I’m going to try the choc one it’s good but it’s not wow okay so let’s try out the last

One M better M yes M it was a good thing with the raspberry cuz it’s fresh compared to the donut best One our evening was spent Ino jooo also known as peace alley a narrow and Atmospheric passage with plenty of places where you can sit down and relax with some Yakitori and Beer that was a Resta yet the Softy oh no sorry next day is started off at one of Tokyo’s largest Parks chinuku guen which is located just a short walk from chinuku station the park offers a Serene and relaxing environment and a well- needed break from The Busy City surrounding it for lunch we were off to Shibuya to try

Out some kite Dan sushi in other words conveyor belt sushi S premum it was really cool because uh what we ordered came here it was like a fish train that came Here no that’s I can’t find better words then that it melts in your mouth yeah the rice was really really good too can we try we try just TR Co okay all the Sal wow good M it’s the ginger on it it’s was really good Ginger and um green

Onions I want to try o okay all right oh my God I’m so nervous oh my [Laughter] God it’s not bad I know I make faces I haven’t felt that texture before but but not the is it mostly the texture yeah and and the look of it it doesn’t look

Appetising I didn’t dislike it but I didn’t like It so this is the SE Bream go it’s a super Chey chewy oh a lot of fibers the Wasabi is really good but yeah it has a lot of refers yeah we have to Sho after a long day filled with eating and walking around Tokyo what better way to end it than with a visit to Golden

Guy which is the name of these narrow alleys crammed with small bars where people are drinking smoking and talking Loudly here we also had some suspicious looking but delicious Ramen at Nagi this is a nibosi ramen made out of dried sardines so I wouldn’t recommend this if you’re not into fishy flavors but personally I loved it we’re queuing for this place called the Naki naku it open in about 40 minutes

But there’s already quite the que I think it’s a like michelon Brahman place so it’s exciting one and a half hour later we waiting we’re getting getting closer I’m going to take that one yes me too hey I got the d m Oh that was the best meal we had so far yeah in Japan and the best ramen I ever had I’m amazed with full stomachs and incredible flavors still lingering we walked about 30 minutes to this traditional Japanese landscape Garden considered to be one of the most beautiful ones in

Tokyo the park actually dates back to the Edo period and was built on the request of the fifth Shogun For TR It’s a gray Friday morning here in asakasa we’re on our way to the suuki Market I think you need to be here a bit earlier if you want to avoid the crowd it’s half past 9 now so I don’t think that’s I don’t think that’s early Enough Oh Cool we just bought ourselves some shopstick holders they were really cute hi hello hi too much up okay your number thank You Got this m as well red beans cream wow yeah it’s good it’s not sweet at all it’s almost a little um bitter yeah okay I’m going to try the Moi as well good yeah it has like a cream inside I didn’t like muchi before coming to Japan when IED it home maybe Is it good yeah this is my kind of food okay I’ll just do like this but it was kind of good it was better than I thought it would be really yeah it’s better than the um shrimp we had oh it is the ra yeah one of the things I’ve been craving

The most since live in Japan is kakori which is a Japanese dessert made out of shaved ice flavored with syrup I didn’t quite know what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised to say the Least yeah they W oh W it’s uh creamier than you think it would Be better than myed that was everything for now but also just the beginning of my journey in Japan so if you don’t want to miss out on my upcoming videos make sure to subscribe thank you for watching and take Care
