[Music] I got your attention so good afternoonÂ
everyone and welcome to Tokyo here in Japan Â
we’re currently on a really busy road but todayÂ
we’re going to try McDonald’s here in Japan and Â
see how it compares to English McDonald’s EnglishÂ
um English we’re currently in Harajuku we just on Â
a really busy street I can’t actually rememberÂ
what it was called um but it’s really touristy Â
here and very busy for a Thursday afternoon asÂ
you can see like streets are packed here they Â
have so many creps here in Harajuku as wellÂ
I don’t know if it’s like yeah they’ve got so Â
many crep shars and we’re going to get one asÂ
well at some point but this is a video today Â
about McDonald’s just McDonald’s uh we did walkÂ
past the McDonald’s the other day and we looked Â
at the menu and it looked insane so we’re goingÂ
to do a full comparison today check out some of Â
the items on the menu and see what it tastes likeÂ
so come and join us as we check out the Japanese
McDonald’s [Music] now I don’t know whyÂ
but this street is so busy and it’s doing Â
my [Â __Â ] edit it’s so long like soÂ
many people here and it’s taking us
about yeah it’s taking us about half anÂ
hour just to walk about 500 M because Â
it’s just like constant stopping andÂ
I’m really unsure why I think people Â
are just taking their time to kind ofÂ
appreciate all the shops and stuff yeah Â
it’s a really Narrow Street and blows ofÂ
people and it’s really winding me up just Â
want to get to McDonald’s it’s only overÂ
there and it’s taken us so long this is Â
crazy actually yeah I don’t know why is thisÂ
busy that through God knows slow people slow
Walkers doesn’t H that we’re hungry

arches we’ve managed to dodge that crowd I don’t Â
know what all that’s about to be honest likeÂ
there’s so many people there and it’s not even Â
as if like because a specific reason but I don’tÂ
know maybe it’s just like a really popular Market Â
Street um look how quick we’re walking now we’reÂ
so hungry I think it’s just cuz it’s narrow and Â
there is actually so many interesting shops onÂ
this street yeah to be fair you don’t have every Â
time I was quite amazed yeah but they have likeÂ
Frozen popcorn what does that mean oh right it’s Â
here here we go here we go here we go I’m hopingÂ

bothering the whole shrimp burger obviously in the Â
UK we get the fish fet we never get shrimp fet soÂ
shrimp fet does sound really good but I’ve already Â
ordered a lot as it is on the sides you can getÂ
like this weird like chicken things can’t get them Â
in the UK adami and corn standard desserts I’veÂ
got the churos that looks quite nice do we get Â

that mhm all right then uh eating so this comesÂ
to a total 2,650 which works out to be uh ÂŁ 13Â Â
which is not bad actually 13 quid some EnglishÂ
prizes really yeah right the next challenge is Â
finding a place to sit oh right down here thereÂ
we go loads of seats free you go here yeah
nice so then it’s just arrived and the veryÂ
first thing that stands out to me is the the Â
wrapping and the packaging on these look at thatÂ
it’s like secure Blossom on there even on this Â
look oh my god look how cool it looks got RedsÂ
you got green yeah oh God that that looks like Â
pure sugar that doesn’t it doesn’t it right thenÂ
so what is what um that’s theie we’ll save that Â
to the last that’s what’s this one in here thenÂ
we have churos in there so we’ll save them to Â
last as well they can go to one side yeah I can’tÂ
remember what we’ve ordered what’s this one uh IÂ Â
can’t actually read Japanese so I’m not too sureÂ
that looks to me oh that’s the uh mashed potato Â
one that’s my one and then this is the what theÂ
Cherry of the chick it oh yeah right then I mean Â
let’s not hang around let’s get straight into itÂ
teriyaki chicken give it a taste test they smell
unreal that is menil yeah
that’s that unreal it go thisÂ
is so exciting it’s a Christmas Â
never ever had a terak and chicken burger before
so let me know what you think
thinkink how good is it nice is itÂ
mhm that sauce tastes incredible Â
as you can see it’s just like pureÂ
covered in teraki sauce and oh my Â
God they have that in the UK mhmÂ
everyone e yeah [Music] unreal so
good this one I can’t remember what this was oh Â
yeah what have you gone forÂ
it was on there should be
um s sauce BT thick set don’t know whatÂ
that means this is basically bacon tomato Â
oh soy sauce it was soy wasn’t itÂ
oh yeah like a beef like a beef soy Â
sauce beef burger with bacon the bacon andÂ
tomato and lettuce soy sauce beef burger
BLT M oh my God so good is itÂ
good is it m M that’s amazing Â
only thing with these Burgers isÂ
there you literally make them M
righty never had a soy sauceÂ
beef burger with bacon before
so oh that is nice I thought the soy would beÂ
really overpowering but it’s not you can barely Â
taste the soy at all it’s just like a nice hintÂ
so good and then right then we will try this one Â
so this is the most interesting one I personallyÂ
think so we got beef burger egg and mashed potato Â
the top there as well apparently so is it heyÂ
so seaweed huh seaweed wasn’t it seaweed Mash Â
was it oh yeah okay yeah so sorry M there soÂ
it’s like seaweed B based mash um right oh
fishy give of a go
oh it’s so messy what your thoughts I like itÂ
honestly it just doesn’t really taste that much to Â
be honest you can taste the egg and a bit of theÂ
beef but you can’t really taste much of the match Â
to be honest I don’t think anyway I just don’tÂ
really think that’s too going on there really is
there no I’m not a fan of that so I probablyÂ
wouldn’t go for it again purely because I IÂ Â
don’t I don’t com yeah I don’t not like itÂ
but I don’t really like it if that makes Â
sense like it’s not I will eat it cuz IÂ
bought it but I don’t know it’s just a Â
bit I’m not sure sure it goes I’ll stillÂ
e it obviously um the next thing I want Â
to try is this drink now this honestly looksÂ
like if you ever watch The Simpsons and you Â
see that radioactive stuff in The SimpsonsÂ
it’s that color doesn’t look very appetizing
but doesn’t actually taste too bad to be
fair oh it’s quite nice it’s sÂ
sugary tastes like pure sugar
but it’s not too bad tastes betterÂ
than it looks I don’t actually like Â
grape so that’s all bests about melonÂ
yeah I can’t stand grape flavor stuff Â
see how it tastes is it strong is itÂ
nice I like that really it’s like like Â
sweet it tastes like I I’ll I’ll give itÂ
a go cuz I’m intrigued but that’s is it
good n that’s everything I don’tÂ
like in a great N I don’t like it Â
right then let’s give these fries a goÂ
I assume these fries probably taste the
same they taste like that ever so smallestÂ
bit different and in a good way I feel like Â
they might actually be nicer than ones weÂ
get in the UK they just taste a little bit Â
different and they’re really good actually IÂ
got that I mean so far so far I think Japan Â
actually wins the best McDonald’s that we’ haveÂ
trapping yeah so previously it was India and now Â
I think Japan actually takes a top spot terakiÂ
chicken burgers better fries I’m yet to Chuck Â
into a churos we’ll do them last more ChoiceÂ
as well like maybe more Choice with the beef Â
boats not so much chicken burgers but really goodÂ
really nice flavors so far absolutely loving it
good right then so that is pretty much the mains Â
all done and dusted we’re now going toÂ
go for the desserts so first St is the
churos m they’re like chocolateÂ
filled in the middle like they’re Â
still warm so they’re quiteÂ
like melted and they’re very
nice do you like them or
no I’m not really a fan of the doughy they’re aÂ
bit like hard my CH that is my favorite bit though Â
I actually really love these they T nice yeah IÂ
just probably wouldn’t order them again and then Â
the star of the dessert show is this moi whatÂ
was it mchi matchi matchi pie p thing now I’ve Â
never heard of this before never seen it beforeÂ
so first time it’s green and it’s green looks very
Japanese it works oh look at that it tast I’m notÂ
sure but it works it’s nice flavor like the rice Â
yeah uh kind of I don’t know how to describe itÂ
but is really nice oh a chocolate in it I’m not Â
sure oh that’s good that’s actually really niceÂ
hot very hot what’ you think you’re not a [Music]
fan is it licorice no I don’t thinkÂ
so it shouldn’t be no not licorice Â
definitely not no that black be 100% noÂ
it is no it’s not what is it called it
is is I’m sure maybe what’s itÂ
called I can’t what the other word
fored yeah it’s got really weird hint of likeÂ
licorice you’re not wrong but it’s not enough Â
put me off I really like it yeah I’m a fan yeahÂ
so definitely grab on these if you come here and Â
these churos are also really nice and I gotÂ
some food AR make a right mess of it um yeah Â
I mean overall I’m thoroughly impressed I reallyÂ
enjoyed this the burgers are unreal the chips are Â
even nicer in the UK and that’s like I neverÂ
thought I’d say that desserts are good um and Â
that melon drinks all right but I wouldn’t chooseÂ
it again we bit sickly yeah yeah bit sickly but Â
I really like yeah I mean Japanese McDonald’s 10Â
out of 10 unreal so good better than UK that’s for
sure okay then so that’s the McDonald’s done we’reÂ
now going to come here for actual pudding dessert Â
I don’t know where I get a bit confused whereÂ
mhm it’s clearly a very popular place cuz this Â
is a queue um and everyone stood around here withÂ
them so they must be good uh Mar and creps what Â
they called Peery from Haruki since 1976 I theyÂ
might have been yeah maybe the longest standing Â
ones than maybe there so many CP shops yeah thereÂ
is a lot of CP shops um yeah hopefully it’s nice Â
I say it’s a big old quue so not sure how wasÂ
going to T to get I’ve got cash anyway so m IÂ Â
want to get a Nutella Nutella and strawberry areÂ
you now well there is a big like um cabinet here Â
with all the different ones so once we walk pastÂ
that in the queue I’ll show you what we can get Â
um smells good though smells really good and theÂ
really good thing about these is the fact that a Â
lot we have a lot of places in Japan they do thisÂ
thing where you can see the food and like I guess Â
it’s like plastic um and they show display whatÂ
the food is going to be like before you order it Â
which is really helpful especially For TouristsÂ
um which one you going to go for I’m going to go Â
for uh I think it’s over there the chocolate iceÂ
cream strawberry chocolate ice cream strawberry Â
but what I think is really weird here is they doÂ
a uh chuna cheese curry now tuna Curry and cheese Â
in a CP is just absolute noo I don’t know why theyÂ
do that that’s the weirdest thing I’ve seen crab Â
yeah but the rest of them look really good youÂ
can get even cheesecake with ice cream banana Â
Nutella you quite literally oh yeah that’s theÂ
one I want you can quite literally get slav cake Â
yeah like a full-on slab of Cheesecake oh yeahÂ
brownie brownie ice cream banana cream all in a Â
crap banana almond brownie chocolate ice creamÂ
whipped cream insane All For Less than4 that’s
incredible
pleas excited
yeah look at this there we go look at that badÂ
boy we’ve got strawberry cream ice cream what Â
Happ just that yeah I think so it’s nice and warmÂ
so that came to 640 was it 640 uh 640 Yen 630 Yen Â
which worked out to be about3 which is not badÂ
at all really if you bought that in London you’d Â
probably be paying about 9 so got a bit of prepÂ
as well you take a bite and add this in as well Â
you need the flavors at once M mental in it yeahÂ
that’s nice is not hungry so he’s only having two Â
bites so we’ll see that’s cuz be’s going to finishÂ
all off by herself aren’t you be how would you Â
rate this up to 10 I mean I haven’t really gotÂ
this is a good bit yet but I’d say eight eight Â
out 10 that is strong so then I believe thatÂ
pretty much wraps up our day here today the Â
mcdonal is incredible and this I mean if you’reÂ
in this area of Tokyo you can get creps anywhere Â
we just thought we’d go to Mar and creps becauseÂ
we saw loads of photos of it and it was close to Â
McDonald so yeah I mean full stomach happy andÂ
we’ve got a crap in hand to see up a day as we Â
get back to our hotel so thank you very muchÂ
for watching and we’ll see you in the next one

Takeshita is all tourists, no locals. That's why it's crowded.

TBH, fast food in Asia is so much better than in Europe or USA. Should try Mos Burger. So good.
If you're still in Japan, you should also try Mos Burger, which has the largest number of locations among the hamburger chain restaurants that originated in Japan. My personal recommendations are the Mos Cheese Burger, Teriyaki Chicken Burger, Loin Cutlet Burger, Shrimp Cutlet Burger, and New Tobikiri Cheeseburger. https://www.mos.jp/menu/pdf/global_regular_menu.pdf
For hamburger sandwiches, try MOS Burger or Freshness Burger. They are Japanese burger shops and way better than MacDonald's.
It's black sugar syrup, not licorice.
Japanese Mac has seasonal limited burgers and others all year round, the burger you are eating in the video is a regular burger and there are many more unusual burgers, the most seasonal type in the world but it is a Japanese Mac, I think it is the best in the world.
The most used sugar in Japan is not granulated sugar.
It is caster sugar(äžçœçł), a combination of sucrose with glutose and fructose.
It has a complex and delicate flavor that adds depth to Japanese cuisine.
If you don't mind the heavy weight, why not buy some as a souvenir?
It is sold everywhere in supermarketsïŒ
In Japan, people who have low income salaries or poorer, go to eat McDonald's burgers đ
shrimp burger is the bestââșïž
In Japan, it is prohibited to take videos inside McDonald's restaurants without permission!You can't film a YouTube video on a tourist visa!
You should try the shrimp burger. Itâs the best burger at McD Japan.

It's unfortunate that you've only been frequenting chain restaurants and haven't had the chance to try truly delicious Japanese cuisine.
pretty interesting.
