Lovely food!
You might've wanted to re-heat that before lol.
Unfortunately, I gotta hungry because of your video even though i had dinner within one hour!!lol
It's good that you can get reasonably healthy food so cheaply.
Jealous over here!!!!! 😀
DROOLZ!!
That sure made me seriously hungry! I really miss the bento in Japan, especially the ekiben. Ah, good times!
That salmon looked really good! : P
the salmon one sounds DANGEROUS!!! if I've learned anything, is that these "pre-made" sandwiches/meals are not always fresh fresh (regardless of country), and stuff like fish/chicken/turkey are like top 3 in the "Better be fresh of it will f**k you up!" category!
I think Katsudon was the first real Japanese food I tried when I first got here, and it was an interesting texture at first, but now I absolutely love it, aside from the onions(I'm not an onion person).
Looked very tasty! 🙂
Well Kevin, you did make me hungry. But no problem, we've got a TON of lasagne from the other day when my wife and daughters made some. Also, it is lunchtime right now.
So do you have to reheat the pork, or do you eat it cold?
480 ¥ is about 41 SEK (Swedish kroner)
398 ¥ is about 32 SEK
That is a good price for those bento boxes and it is probably so much better than the "boxed" food you can get here in Sweden.
I am so hungry now 😛
@kua514 Well not in Nihon, sir.
美味そう
Are there an really spicy Japanese Dishes?
looks cold
one of my favorite
5 dollars for that?? hmm
Looks sooo good!
Oishisooo!
I would eat all of it except the raw fish and the pork.
I would have the fish fried or baked and willing to pay extra.
you did make me hungry jerk!!!!!!!!
I love Katsudon, I made a comment on it on your video what's your favorite japanese food and you can what order food in japanese (4 ban), the video that I just loaded up and I had Katsudon.
I wish we could get decent bento in america.
i'm cooking this today
EAT FAST!!
European can not understand RICE is main dish. So every cooked dish must be with
RICE eating together. Moreover DON dish is topping dish, So you must eat dish with
rice. And mixing in mouth together. This Guy is bebinner of Japanese food eater.
I'm Japanese. I often eat many of foods you're introducing in your videos, but, every time I watch your videos, I feel like eating them even though I'm not so hungry.
はっきりいって、コンビニ弁当もスーパーの弁当もおいしくないですよ。
@kaisermuto The reason why he didnt eat it with rice is because hes holding the camera on the other hand. Its pretty hard to pick up all together with one hand while holding a camera on the other.
Handmade katsudon verygood, better than lanchbox
I love katsudon! 😀
whats the difference between katsudon and tonkatsu? are they the same? or is one deep fried chicken?
There is a difference. Katsudon is a meal as you see in this video. The "don" part means "bowl". Tonkatsu is just the pork cutlet without the rice, onion, eggs, etc. So, one can say that a katsudon is made with a tonkatsu. The meat is pork for both, not chiken. "Ton" means "hog" and "katsu" means "cutlet"..
katsudon daisuki ^0^
Do you eat these cold or do you heat them up first?
日本人は英語を話せる人を優遇しない、差別的な人たちです。
さらに白人を崇めない、非文明人でもあります。
アメリカ人は世界中から好かれ尊敬されてるのに
日本では他の劣等国と同じ扱いなので、プライドが傷つくことがあります。
おそらく日本人の嫉妬心が、こうした白人への差別につながっているのだと思います。
頭おかしいですね
事実だからしょうがないしょ、とタイにいたアメリカ人が日本に来て感じたと
ゆうとりましたで、アメリカに帰ったけど、タイだと銀行で並んでると
窓口の受付がにっこりして、優先してくれるってゆうてたで、文明的だって
ロリペドだったけど
Casual eating in Japan. It's not special.
i want to eat your blogs
I like Japanese food
←Sukekiyodon
そのたった一人の意見が日本全体のイメージになるわけですか・・・・
よし気をつけよう。
ただ、ちゃんと並んでる他の人より優先されたことで文明的だと感じる感覚はいかがなものかと思います。優先させない日本人は差別的な人達というあなたの感覚がわかりません。
いろんな人・いろんな国がある中で嫌いな国があるのは仕方がないと思います。
そのアメリカ人やあなたには日本は合わないのでしょう。
でも、日本人全てが差別的な人達とか非文明人とか劣等国とか言ってしまうあなたこそ差別していると思います。
あなたが日本人のことを『差別的な人たちです』とコメントしていることからあなたは日本人ではないことがわかります。
どこの国の方かわかりませんがそんな卑劣なことをして恥ずかしくないですか？プライドはないんですか？
あなたこそ差別的な人です。他人を批判する前に自分を知ってください。
Katsu Don and Katsu is we give sens to Win(katsu 勝つ）lolX3:)
