Shizuka explores the unique food of the port city Yokohama. Thanks to influences from other countries’ cuisines, Yokohama boasts a diverse food culture. From the steamed buns of Chinatown to the western-inspired dishes of historical hotels, Yokohama’s food scene is a lot of fun to dive into! One of the best things to do in Yokohama for any history-loving foodie.

“Yoshoku”, or western-inspired Japanese food, was largely developed in port cities like Yokohama, and the Hotel New Grand is responsible for inventing two iconic dishes: the rice Doria and spaghetti Napolitan. Shizuka checks out the origin of these staples of yoshoku to see if this fusion food lives up to its reputation.

  1. Love your videos shizuka, not only the sites and food you feature, but you also give us something new to learn every episode

  2. "it's so good that even the pigeon has come to join me for crumbs."
    As if pigeons won't eat literally anything that drops to the ground 🤣🤣🤣

  3. Shizuka-sama is literally a brilliant point of light in a vast sea of darkness. She makes this channel.

  4. Nice! Definitely going to visit the hotel next time I am in Yokohama. The seafood Doria looks delicious!

  5. Delicious as always!! Strawberry steamed panda bun, hayashi rice, and spaghetti napolitan are my top 3. Can't wait to check out that hotel~

  6. oh Yokohama, another place on my list to visit, and wow, everything looks so mouth watering, I'd love to try the Hayashi Rice, the Hamburger, and the Doria

  7. Spaghetti Napolitan. I always shake my head when ketchup is added into spaghetti. About time it’s called Spagetti American or Ketchup Spaghetti. The Italians (or any serious chef) are in disbelief of this concept.
