What is up guys we are currently at kuraman Market it’s the first um I think the first day I’m going to street food in Osaka and really only the last day really cuz I’m going um back to Tokyo later on as well um but let me go ahead
And show youall what I got at the street food vendor just some random street food place I got some eel and tomago he uh I was like hey yo that that looks good bro like whatever that is like give me that you know pointed it to
Him um and then he literally made it fresh I thought he was just going to take it off of the skewer or and then put it on the plate but he actually made it fresh and then he blow torch it as well so I thought that was super cool um
As you can see there’s a lot of good food here sick Bro sick so I’m ready ready to enjoy this tomago and eel let’s get it let’s go ahead and do it eel and tamago baby street food the texture of the tomago is really almost like
Tofu almost melts in your mouth tastes a little bit of fish sauce in there a lot of umami flavor let go ahead and try the eel now eel unagi is what it’s called okay okay so the uh unagi is really texture is really there um it’s a little
Bit more firm it tastes really good that’s really I can Say like the charred bits of when he blow torched the fish add that little texture crunch to it and then the glaze the soy glaze that’s on the unagi it’s like combination of sweet and um salty but not overwhel L up so it compliments the tomago really well look
At how fat that piece of tomago is that’s crazy bro I’m really this is this was 1,000 yen for a skewer dude so I’m really not trying to drop this that’s fire I wish it was a little bit more hot but overall fire keep in mind guys whenever you guys
Go to Caron Market it’s cash only so make sure you have a lot of cash if you like eating street food all right last piece of gagi so for 1,000 yen you get two pieces of unagi this big two pieces of the tago that I got and that equates to roughly about
Like maybe $7 USD so that’s actually not bad consider the quality of the food I’m in that era of my life where I’m like quality over quantity you know it’s like with your friends would you rather have more fake friends or like a circle of five real friends you feel
Me I’m a real big Seafood guy I’m tell you this this is a spot that was a great meal um yeah got to sit down have a real talk with y’all and uh yeah we’re going to keep doing this food tour on for my market real quick so um stay tuned got more
Sleep food content on the way yeah all right guys testing two3 testing 23 so um we’re back again in another place in kuramon market and um I really was craving some prawn SL Lobster and so I went to this place and for about 160 Yen they gave me this uh huge
Prawn Lobster I don’t mantis shrimp looking thing so you can see it’s a little bit charred um they just grilled it freshly to order and it costed about 2160 Yen I think the equivalent of that is maybe $17 USD so about uh yeah $17 for this piece of this piece of prawn
Right here and just a hand comparison it’s about the size of my hand maybe a little bit larger super excited to try this I’m a big Seafood guy and I’m right here I have my uh luggage and my backpack I’m just sitting down before I move to Tokyo and um yeah honestly this
Is the first time I’m like vlogging in public but I honestly I just don’t think people care which is great U cuz at the end of the day like why would they care right um so anyway I think you’re supposed to eat this with gloves uh like
It’s like a giant crawfish I guess so pretty excited to try this snap all right so I’m going to break the head and let’s just see what happens Okay okay okay oh that that that’s all over my Canada jacket um you know what it’s fine it’s fine as long as it’s not on my shirt which is kiding okay so as you can see I think it’s also on my nose on my um anyways you have this
Piece of head I love eating shrimp head guys this where all the flavors at so let’s go ahead I’ll save that piece for the last actually so now let’s go ahead and look at this prawn and I’m I’m a person that us with a shell on judge me
If you want but I think the shell has the most texture on it okay so let’s see if the shell is edible I think it’s edible I’m just going to break a piece off Here or should I just you know bite into it I’m just going to break a piece off look try to see a little civilized okay piece of meat here let’s get It assuming that there’s no like flavoring or anything the richness of the sea flavor is really there I’m going eat the Shell okay the shell is edible tastes like a really crunchy chip although I don’t think I like the taste of enough I eat the shell so I’m going to take it off And I think Japan has to be one of my favorite places for food the SE through right here man damn cheers tastes like tastes like a lobster the texture a little bit more little bit more thicker the lobster go ahead e that the head Guys yeah that’s where all the flavor is at that’s where all the flavor is at bro I’m not kiding should I just wild out and just eat these legs Too the whole Ang is edible Bro you get this in America for Sure nothing like this in America yeah this this strim is definitely more muscular it’s more muscular it has more more like a fibrous texture to it than Lobster is so if you like lobster you’ll like this if you like how thick Lobster is then you’ll like this that is just great
D this is fire fire all right all right guys heal up all the shell that strimp now crazy crazy going to you know I’m trying to take it off the skewer but That so hard to get off I think there was a dipping sauce that would be wor that’s why you have the head the head acts as a dipping sauce now I didn’t make the rules so dip some of the stuff in there All right guys fing this head we got to move out to the next Destination swag swag all right y low I don’t care how it look bro sometimes you just got to get past it and just eat it okay overall I’m glad I tried that no regrets I think my jacket is good and so we’re going to go ahead move to the next
Restaurant what is up guys so uh we’re currently still at kuramon market and we just got some scallops because um honestly scallops is my favorite sea food like one of them so we got each of these skewers were about a thousand yen so about give take eight eight USD
So so we got the small one and we got the large one and I think the large ones are the ones that have like more musly and more uh just inard in them honestly but same price and um scals like I said scals are like my favorite food and so
It was only a matter of time where I did get some freshly grilled scallops this is the scallops freshly off the grill tast t one thing I really like about my street food or just seafood or Japanese food in general it’s very subtle and light the flavors aren’t like in your
Face you really have to be aware of what you’re eating to really be able to enjoy it is there any people who are video bombing made I don’t care I’m out here just trying to look my best life you told me but yeah it’s like 10:30 a.m. right now so eating like
Scallops for breakfast is crazy but we out Here that tastes like a little bit like tofu um I’m not going to lie that’s not really up my cup of tea I was not expecting that flavor for texture I wish it was a little bit more a little bit more salty either way I’m glad I tried
It yeah this is enough protein for the day or enough Seafood for the day for sure reminds me of too crazy all right I’m going to finish this honestly I just want to finish it already maybe I should have put quu on it but it’s all good
Yeah I’m finish the scall up probably going to call it at C my market maybe get like a Mochi or something or strawberry D CUO and then call it I’m sweet Market out PE out guys I’ll see you on the next one
