Kicha we’re the Evergreens and we’re standing here in Tokyo Japan we’re both so excited to be here Japan has been our number one bucket list country for quite some time and we’re finally here yeah we haven’t been in Asia since 2018 when we were in Thailand and that was one of our

Favorite trips together to date so we’re so excited to be back in a brand new country and we’re going to take you along with us this Time You’re supposed to get a stick out of here you have to I shake it have to shake it 11 you find the corresponding number here and you get a fortune it says I got the best Fortune it says your family business will be really prosperous high five to your

Skill will develop and will be well known to the people even in the C Oh I got a bad fortune so since I got a bad fortune you’re supposed to tie it up in a little knot and tie it around this gate and I guess that gets rid of your bad Fortune So we just got our first street food from the main Market here we right off of nakisa Street and we got fried sweet potato which I am so excited for I’ve been dreaming about it I just love sweet potatoes so it looks delicious it’s gooey and crisp on the

Outside and the inside is just such a soft sweet potato their sweet potatoes are so different from ours oh that’s really good m it’s almost like a honey sauce on top with some black sesame seeds but the texture is perfect like Laurel said it’s soft on the inside and

You got that nice crunch on the outside it’s really Good okay good choice on to the next Thing okay so our next stop on our food tour is D fuku which is stuffed Mochi isn’t that amazing got a little powdered sugar on your lips it’s everywhere the Mochi is so soft I was expecting it to be more chewy like I think most of the Mochi I’ve had

Has been almost like rubbery okay it’s really messy we love the Mochi it’s so good thick moi Co MH so the green tea one is good but the black bean paste was way better I think so even if you are a little bit afraid of the sound of bean paste trust

Us it’s the way to go for these so we’ve been walking down nakam street which is the main Market Street in asakasa it’s really long and right now they have it decorated for fall with the leaves on either side it’s really beautiful and then in the middle of nak Street there’s

Another Market Street that runs perpendicular to it more markets and vendors and it just keeps going on forever yeah there’s so much to see and do here it’s Crazy we to go see sou one all right so we just stumbled across a Dog Cafe Japan is known for having a lot of uh unique cafes there’s owl cafes Hedgehog cafes cat cafes but um I think we’re going to have to go to this dog one because they have a

Pug we miss our pugs back home if you can’t tell it’s already been a day and we’re going to a Dog Cafe it’s a170 for 10 minutes to see the dogs with the snack oh snack 360 for a I think we can Splurge okay okay most popular okay chicken okay one yes one Okay too Short so the ones wearing clothes are on diet they’re not allowed to have All right so we’re trying a piece of big Fried Chicken so I think it is what it is seasoned really nicely though it smells good so one thing in Japan you can’t walk and eat it’s disrespectful so there’s designated spots along the street and in Alleyways where you can

Stand and eat your food so we’re at one of them right now give this a try oh it’s a little peppery um maybe like some paprika but really nice piece of chicken it’s huge too I don’t know if you can fully see going to have to help

Me with this one it looks like it’s pounded really thin yeah it’s a very thin piece of chicken so yeah Tasty it’s really good this is definitely the best fried chicken we’ve ever had so good yeah we’re not just saying that I know we say that a lot but and usually we like sauce connoisseurs we need sauce with any kind of meat but this is like amazing on its own so

Yesterday morning when we were here walking around all jetlagged there was nothing open yet except the place across the street they serve minced pork with onions fried and there’s broth inside the fry thing too so good we’ll put on the screen what it’s called I don’t even

Really know how to explain it but I was just blown away by how delicious that was so that’s definitely a must try if you’re in the area one General rle of thumb when we’re traveling is we always try to follow our nose and also if

There’s a line in front of a place we usually stop there because the lines indicate that it’s popular it’s a good place and the smells never well sometimes they’ll lie to you but usually the smells don’t Li so both the fried pork place and the fried chicken place

They’re right across the street smell amazing and they have huge Lines so we just got a shrimp tempora cracker they take shrimp tempora and they literally just press it down right in front of you into a cracker it tastes pretty much how you’d expect it to taste I think I prefer regulars from Tora but it’s very Interesting okay so the last street food item we’re trying today we had to wait an hour for we didn’t realize when we ordered it and then we were standing there waiting and the lady came up to us and she was like no you have to come back in an hour and

This is eel over a rice fall it’s topped with shashido pepper so it should be a little bit spicy and I got my bite all ready it tastes a little bit like white fish it’s a little bit bit fishy but not overpowering it’s really Good High Laurel just said she has the meat sweats that Fried Chicken did her in it’s a huge piece of chicken it was a really big piece of Chicken you Got [Applause] dropped a chopstick stab it with One it’s so soft strawberry in your teeth it’s right here wait lift it open oh Good
