like it’s paper and somehow turned to a stranger we used to work now I’m trying to make sure that we’re both on the same page same page i don’t want it to complicate i know you’re riding away riding away is there room for us both on the same way nothing makes it clear when there’s no front that I don’t even like this defense if you don’t want me to try oh why oh why oh why would I when you were barely even mine why oh why oh why would I would I [Music] should have known from the start that you were a waste of an open bar time wiping my feet on the door mat there’s so much of you that I just can’t We got nothing when there’s no So we’re waiting for Uber ride going to we’re going to have dinner we’re supposed to walk naman like so we’re at like 10 minute walk but it’s been a long day and we’re too tired to walk but we want to have some great food so we decided to take an Uber and it’s going to arrive in a minute now so let’s go let’s Let’s go outside now he’s going to be there okay he’s there let’s go [Music] oh why would I when you were barely even mine oh why oh why oh why would I [Music] okay we found this best restaurant here in Osaka it’s recommended by the Isaka food okay let’s go ahead and see if we have seats available [Music] okay we have to leave now [Music] okay we’re waiting for our order so we ordered the age steak cutlet rice bowl it’s a combination of pork cutlet and gudon not only gudon it’s a wagyu beef guton and then we wanted to order the other type of guodon but the waiter and I couldn’t we couldn’t understand each other and so we ordered naang Aurora Angus beef steak age at 0° chalk eye roll very very interesting excited nango but this looks good this is the sauce steak sauce okay i want a second thought baby stay in mine i’m all the give you the take therein’t no fixing breaks [Music] i say speechless that is so good [Music] you don’t want me to try oh oh why oh why would I but you were barely even oh why oh why oh why would I would [Music] Nothing special [Music] i don’t want to call you later you’re tearing my heart up like it’s paper and somehow turn [Music] hey guys so nasabi canina because I wanted to eat while the food is warm that’s why I just said it’s so good but to be honest it was amazing i like the gon better than the pork cutlet not sure if it’s because of the sauce but the steak it was super super good for the price it’s 180 g and it’s it’s 19 yen so like about 800 800 pesos I think which is super sweet now for the price it was really worth it super super good if you happen to visit Osaka and if you’re looking for a great steak for worth it’s worth the price chuck eye roll it is meat produced in the US outstanding juiciness check tastiness addict addictive to meat lovers double check it’s not too crowded just like the others no so maybe this is a hole in the wall but this one’s recommended by the Osaka food draw hey guys we’re back here at Tempura Terro and we came back because this place really serves real great amazing tempura it’s a must to come back it’s a must to eat here whenever you’re here in Osaka so if you’ve seen my um previous vlog in Osaka we went here in 2023 and we’re back here again it’s the same chef who’s who’s serving who’s cooking and it’s really it’s really nice and it’s honestly insane how much are you yeah so we’re ordering again different types of tempura it’s our first time to order so banos so we’re excited we haven’t eaten yet and it’s already 12 [Music] girl such a problem tell me what I got to do so I could solve it cuz I can’t solve it and it’s honestly insane how much are you how much are you it hurts to be so close i just know there’s no English translation japan so we ended up in Starbucks just couldn’t find a good coffee it’s just that probably to look for it it’s not a priority let’s go [Music] love me i don’t want to be the only one thinking did you ever give it all before we just met you up hold me close and say you won’t let go and I could just move on there’s no one in the world as cool as you [Music] hey guys we’re here at the Osaka metro area we chanced upon this restaurant because of the vibe and we saw someone eating the noodles so that’s why we picked this it’s kind of hard to order because we couldn’t understand them very little English but then we powered through order something beef so ginaya nang namin and it looks it looks delicious so this is like ordering what the guy beside us ordered so hopefully it’s going to be good and authentic that’s why we’re here for here we go this is I think beef rice bowl with hot soup and then they gave us um cold tea upon getting in here so this is going to be an adventure this is the beauty of traveling getting lost in translation okay let’s go [Music] just move on there’s no one in the world as cool as you are how could I if I want to be the one who makes you happy makes you happy oh it hurts to be so close i just got known for sure tell me if you love me last love me last love me not love me not cuz I don’t want to be the only one thinking did you ever really care that I [Music] hold me close and say you won’t let go i can’t let you go can’t let you go can’t let you go can’t let you go oh i can’t let you go can’t let you go i can’t let you go i can’t let you go [Music] tell me if you me i don’t want to be the only one did you ever give it up when I you hold me close to say you won’t let go that was worth the price the fatty tuna was worth the price it’s 3 350 for 350 yen for this [Music] [Music] thank you so much [Music] yes thank you thank you so much [Music] welcome to Pokemon Cafe Mall here [Music] all right thank you english english [Music] okay hey guys we’re here at Pokémon Cafe you can’t enter here without a reservation so you have to book in advance or go wait on the line so you’re only allowed to stay here for maximum of 2 hours i want this i just need to pick Pikachu character and then I want I ordered this Eeve’s royal milk tea it’s a milk tea with whipped cream cookie chocolate and a chocolate French almond cake super cute i can’t even eat it and this one is the Pokemon cafes very very chocolate parfait vanilla ice cream granola cheesecake chocolate brownies whipped cream strawberries and blueberries [Music] hey guys it is already 8:00 p.m and we just got back actually we also went to Pokemon Cafe i was expecting a good coffee but apparently Pokemon Cafe doesn’t serve coffee coffee perang like regular coffee talaga my fault cuz I didn’t do my research when it says cafe understood coffee shop but I guess it’s for kids and it’s a good experience because we were able to get in reservation cuz we’re next in line now and then Pikachu was there we saw Pikachu live but then you cuz we were seated at the back p and we’re not allowed to stand up or move from our seats just to get the photos and videos of Pikachu but it was a nice experience although I don’t recommend if you’re not a fan of Pokemon or you characters I don’t recommend eating there it’s good for the kids though um it’s pang bata talaga but if you’re there to I guess chill or have some coffee break it’s not a good place number one it’s overpriced we ordered like a milk tea per cute drinks and then the one that you saw earlier it’s like a granola with ice cream on top and whipped cream and strawberries and berries so for the price we paid 3,200 yen for those two that we ordered I think makabila ng baby for for the price so yeah it’s if it’s for the kids if if the kids want to see Pikachu live then go ahead go to Pokemon Cafe but again it’s not a good place to chill and you know get your coffee fixed because wala silang specialty coffees there we’re here at the city bus because it’s only 6 a.m [Music] [Applause] [Music]
