Ha. I was actully getting kicked out of a hotel because of my appearance. The lobby manager succeeded to explain the security that I was actually fixing the locks in bathroom stall. So yea.. this kind of things do happen.
@@ThatNerdAlbert I somehow imagine the kid as "legendary" and there's rumors about his existence. Then, you get to be in the same class as him. The teachers already has procedures/codes in case he does it AND BAM! The mad man does it and you get free steak for lunch lol.
the japanese are really good at being peaceful even in crowds. my first time at narita airport i was stunned, it felt more like the atmosphere of a library/church...
@NizzyNizerson If you're referring to America, then also include literally anywhere else other than Japan... besides, I'm sure if I or anyone I know went to Japan, we would show utmost respect and decency.
Just dropping by to say since i first saw your video 4 years ago, I’ve been enchanted by the style and presentation of this particular restaurant. It had been on my wishlist to visit one day. Today, I finally did! Charted a trip to Japan, made our way to Tokyo Midtown and hunted down this same place, and even ordered the same set lunch. It was the happiest and warmest culinary experience I’ve had in a while. Thank you, Aden!
When I was in Japan the best steak I ate was at the Irori restaurant in the historic village Shirakawa. Price was only between $20-$40 for the steak and rice bowl. It was from the Japanese black haired cattle called Hida. It tasted like crispy bacon on the outside with the texture of butter and meat. It was better than the wagyu steaks we ate in fancy restaurants.
@Clementine Barnabet What's disgusting about it ? Wagyu fat is very soft and full of flavor and it pretty much melts at room temperature. It's not that chewy gum shit that you get with pot roasts or low-quality beef.
Whilst i'm 6 minutes into this video, I just want to say that I really like the style of capturing this experience. I'm really glad you're not some pretentious smarmy american 'RU-vidr' that has their face in every single shot and has to talk about EVERYTHING. You just film the experience, and no bullshit! Thank you for being cool.
@@sicklettuce I'm pretty sure this person filming (or uploading) is American, as they have used the dollar symbol in the title of the video. You should take note that the word 'smarmy' is the word you disagree with here - not 'american'. Are you an American perchance good sir?
The minimal speaking means that in some cultures they doesn't really need words to get comunicate with each other, wich is just a symbolic interationism case not because ASMR. Get the fuck out with your fuckin and bored Millennial neologisms learned from some stupid youtuber.
@@chocolateoverdrive3256 lmao "clips" it's a clip you pleb and it was for a friend to watch also that's completely irrelevant from my comment Anyone can experience some semblance of fine dining.
@@boarbot7829 some people are overly sensitive about that shit, one time a friend of mine ordered some japanese(im not sure if its japanese or what) food and the chef just looks disgusted because of the order/or the way my friend is eating. I dont remember the details of the food anymore its years ago. Personally I think its the same way when people dont use chopsticks.
3:30 the way he puts the spatulas to shield against splatter towards the customer. Attention to detail. After decades and decades of refinement. A thing of art.
This is actually really cheap. Their other dishes are probably not nearly this much. Wagyu beef is super expensive so I don't get why people think this is insane. A dinner at a well known steakhouse that isnt a chain, is typically 40-60$, and if they had wagyu, it would be this much or more.
poorly? a steak should never be cut whilst still on the grill, this releases extra oxidization and releases a lot of the flavor within the steak. this so called "chef" is a complete amateur. 100% ruined a $144 steak.
@@Imjudah- orihime. From bleach. One of her scenes had a leek innit, which became a meme. Unfortunately, despite having an intriguing powerset, she became the stereotypical damsel in distress, and failed to really contribute either to fights, or the story.
I've successfully ignored it for a couple of days, but youtube are getting smarter and persistent on getting people to do what they want. I'm telling you, guys. Google is skynet.
@@titanic5761 hibachi only means small grill . And you thought it was some kinda exotic Japanese cooking method huh . Yakitori is more specialized . What theyvare doing is more for tourist suckers . I lived In Japan for 20 years sn would never even go inside of these crappy style places .
first I thought what a price, but one cook for one person and dishes made with such perfectness and love for details it was realy impressive. Wow. I never saw a cook where preparing of food is such a meditative act.
I had one of these back in Osaka, boy I tell you, the whole experience simply just slows you down and make you appreciate every little detail. The moisture of the meat, the taste, heavenly
@@rustyshackleford2185 *Would you be pleased* to be chosen to face death alone, and not only be boiled alive but be tossed into the cooking vessel so haphazardly that it is only after several minutes of struggle, when you finally give up the ghost, that the ignominy of having been cooked upside-down is revealed? *I'm kidding, dude.* I just thought it was funny that a single clam could subvert all that attention to detail by popping out upside-down, forcing the the teppanyaki chef to reach in and flip him over. Or her.
You're paying top dollar for them to handle it like it's plutonium. The end result might not be much different from cheaper places, but what you pay for in these places is exactly that theatricality.
*$144 in Japan:* Highest quality of beef, cooked by world class chefs with a large amount of side dishes and main course. *$144 in America:* Only a slightly better beef than average, cooked by regular chefs with little to no side dishes
The precision and attention to detail is indescribable. Every motion, every movement has a purpose. From placing the spatulas in front to avoid splatter to cutting the stem off the mushroom. It's like a delicate ballet. Just awesome!!
I'm going to only go through the first 5 minutes with you low brow knuckle draggers: First, everything is clean, clean, clean! Also, keep in mind how elegant and beautiful all the utensils are, including the copper lid/cover used to cook. Even the tiny spoon to cook the clam with is immaculate. 00:12 Just LOOK at how precisely the utensils are placed, not just thrown together. Simple, elegant. 00:22 All the food on this plate is beautifully displayed, like those tiny flowers 00:49 The way this clam is cooked, you should be able to see a lot of attention is being paid to it 1:19 Much attention is given to the amount of oil used. It's not just thrown all over the placed like in American cooking. 1:50 Grill is ALWAYS being cleaned - it's immaculate. 2:43 Just soooo delicate with that clam. Pay attention to the chef cleaning the scum water off it and putting into the napkin. Most of us wouldn't even notice this when eating it - the Japanese DO. 3:07 Chef doesn't use the whole amount of spice. Just enough.... detailed. 3:31 Again, precise amount of oil 3:34 Look at the utensils. They're perfectly placed to avoid the diner getting oil splashed on him. Minor detail, but it's there 4:09 LOOK at how precise and delicately he placed the garnish and lemon on the plate. The chef doesn't just chuck it on there and call it a day 4:27 He is so careful with this fish, like it's the last filet in the world and he doesn't want to ruin it, slightly adding pressure to properly brown it 4:44 The lid is simply beautiful. Not just some randomly selected piece of kitchenware. Like I said, this is only the first 5 minutes. I compare this style to American style and see a HUGE difference. I'm simply shocked the rest of you don't. But, then again, maybe he's SO good that we don't see it. It's a well rehearsed dance. after all.
Some in the comments said that you pay for the experience, an indulgent act of rich people. But as someone who cooks as a hobby I want to remind you how few seasoning the cook is putting in here. If you cook with cheap and common ingredients, you need to season a lot, sometimes even drown them in sauce and marinade to get the flavor you want. But when you cook with really good and fresh ingredients, you want to perserve the taste of from ingredients themselves. So that's why you only put few essential seasonings like salt, pepper and olive oil and that's all. From what I know, perserve the taste of ingredient itself is also the spirit of cooking teppanyaki.
Thanks for this channel... Just being able to quietly watch food be masterfully cooked... It's such a refreshing pleasure No stupid annoying reality shows and announcers who can't shut their mouths
You're using SILVERWARE?? On PEANUT BUTTER? Oooo, la dee daaaah! Look at the Queen of England who doesn't use fingers on peanut butter? So what's it like to be fancy?
i came from a vid where a guy was opening military food rations and i shall exit this vid to "Every way to cook an egg (59 methods)" yall can't stop me!!!!
14:06 if I'm paying $144 for lunch with wagyu beef, you can be damn sure I'm eating the fatty part of it too Edit: ok thank god they used it later on for another dish
@@Mrfunkysheep I made dinner for him and my parents because he complained that the steak at the local steakhouse the night before wasn't very good. He had never had sous vide before and I told him how it makes the juiciest most tender steaks. I cooked his at 135 for 2 hours and seared it with ghee on my Blackstone. He cut into it, saw the slightest bit of pink and put it in the Microwave. He pulled it out and all the juices were released. It looked like shoe leather. In shock, I did an eyebrow raise and turned my head to look away in bewilderment. I could not believe what I saw. Then he asked for ketchup.
that's america my friend. like killing a fish just for 2 pieces of fillet, while they could be eating so much more and even make fish soup out of the head :D
@@001mhu In China people eat nearly all kinds of fishes that could be found, not just salmon tuna. I am afraid of the fish bones so I don't eat fishes in China.
14:09 when the cooks says "oishi des" ("its good/delicious" idk Japanese but I have basic understanding of a few words) HE SOUNDS SO PURE OMG THANK YOU SIR IM SURE IT IS DELICIOUS
I'd pay that much to have someone who cooks food that would make a royal weep, in front of me, for me. This is not a $144 steak, its $144 worth of a professional craftsman preparing dishes for you and you alone. This isn't food service, it's food in service.
I wouldn't pay 144 dollars for this unless it was me and 2 or 3 other people. Plus everything looked good quality and all. But the environment was quiet and almost awkward, seemed lonely, nothing flashy about the cooking, food had minimal seasoning. I could go on. I would not personally pay this much for this little bit of food. Like come on now. They gave them 1 mushroom. X'D That was probably like 2 cent for them to purchase.
Dominic Galloway it’s literally just the wagyu beef that that cost $144. Plus if you buy or grill ur own steak (for the connoisseur) you don’t wanna season with anything else but some salt n pepper to appreciate the quality n taste of the beef.
@@dominicgalloway4481 *Try to learn a little class.* The first rule of great food is to not get in the way of top-quality ingredients. If you want loud and flashy, Japan is definitely not the place for you. You'll get looked at like trash if you act that way, even in a McDonald's.
