No Foreigners Visit This Restaurant in Japan 

I've taken it as my mission to tell people to visit shokudos after I saw bunch of tourists in Osaka line up for some chain curry restaurant. Sadly so many people follow the flashing English menu available signs like it's a buglight and they're a moth.

Haha thanks for commenting and watching, so glad to see that people enjoy these stupid videos I make. This time I had no doubt that my stomach was fine since I trust the nice people at the store with their cooking :D. Whale was definitely good, but I still think I prefer good beef over anything else, oh and salmon, god damn salmon is good.

Thanks a lot, that's exactly the vibe I've been trying to give out. Hope you keep learning Japanese, are you using Anki?

That's a lovely comment, thanks so much. I've tried to make my Japan videos be about the "real" Japan so that I show the good and the bad because I feel like most people just glamorize Japan. It can be tough in here at times, things might not be like you expect BUT it's still amazing country and I think the best place to travel in the world. So glad you enjoyed the video and commented, hope I see your comments in the future too!

I was on Keto 😁 Nobody here does anything like that so it's always a surprise for them. Almost nobody is even a vegetarian here.

That's awesome to hear! I do this quite often and just decided to try and film my latest outing. I'll do more in the future then just for you 😁

I haven't done actual vlogs much yet, but they're relatively chill to make so maybe I should 😁 I'll try! Hope you keep on watching.

Thanks so much! I'm glad you're at least watching!

Japan is I think the best country to travel to. It can be hard to live here, but easily the best travel location! Food is amazing and so much to see. I recommend going to the Countryside if you can.

I still am embarrassed of filming myself outside because people will ALWAYS look at "what that guy is filming", but I'll keep on trying to get over it, I just don't think I'm interesting enough and in general I don't like being on camera but since I'm doing these by myself, I got to be on camera haha. It was also really scary to film inside the restaurant because I really don't want to film random people without their consent, but I asked all the people many times if it was fine and everyone was fine with it so all is good. Hopefully I can film more stuff like this in the future because I LOVE going out to old restaurants and talking with the people there but I haven't done videos about it simply because I haven't had the courage to ask random people if I can film them. Maybe in the future I will. Thanks for wathcing and commenting again, love you buddy.

Sometimes they are good of course but in general I feel like tourists don't know what's good or don't know how to demand good service so they can serve almost anything and stay afloat. Amsterdam for example was like that, the food got SO much better once you went outside of that touristy city.

Haha thanks so much, still don't think this is close to anything good yet. The audio and video is pretty bad but if I start making money I'm gonna fix that part. Been getting a lot of subs from viral shorts but sadly short views and subs don't translate into views for regular videos which is why I still have hard time breaking 1000 views on a video. But I keep doing my best, you do too Angry dad!

Trying my best, thanks for watching bro :3

It's all good, all I want is people to watch these stupid videos and if you're already doing that it's amazing and I thank you so much for that. Hopefully you keep on watching in the future too!

@@Paahtis BTW, What is your job in Japan? Or are you a full-time vlogger?

It was a grapefruit and it was part of the teishoku set as the dessert, I am 99% sure of that :D. I do love though when they have lemon for the cabbage in restaurants, freshly cut cabbage and lemon on top is so good with rice and meat.

Grandma's are the best. Underrated by zoomers.

Aww, thanks 😌

I love you too :3

Very true, but definitely if there's no tourists visiting those places, they won't even think of printing an English menu because there's no need. One time I went to an izakaya with a friend from back home and asked for an English menu so they could read too and the staff turned the place upside down to find a 15 year old printed English menu with dust on it 😂 that one definitely wasn't used in a while.

@@Paahtis yeah, that's a fair point. I had a similar experience, staff in one izakaya deep in countryside insisted on giving me an English menu, so I took it. Then looking through it and the Japanese one… the English menu had old prices (lower) and some meals were not even on it.

I mean as far as I understand it can be slightly cruel to get the whale out of the ocean but thats a short amount of suffering when compared to those factory farmed pigs who live in a small cage unable to move their whole life. Not saying two wrongs make a right but as long as they are not going extinct or anything I think in the grand scheme of things whaling isn't that bad. Then again, I really do not know anything about this subject.

I tried to say if "all else fails" and "if nothing else works" at the same time lol

@@Paahtis I know and that's why I love you 🐳🐋🐳

You're badass 😉

I wonder if you could order online from like Iceland or Norway, though AFAIK they aren't as ethical with their whaling as Japan as crazy as it may sound.

Hope you use them, that's honestly my number one tip in Japan. Going to different traditional old restaurants to talk with the owners is the best part of travelling in Japan. It's my biggest hobby in living here which is why I made this video. Hopefully I can do more in the future and combine my hobby of eating out and doing videos :D

@@Paahtis😺😺👍👍

That place is called Katsuhan, it's close to sakuragicho station. Another great restaurant is Kitchen Cafe Baru, that one is amazing and I love the butaniku oroshi ponzu, but its super popular now so they usually run out of food around 3pm.

@@Paahtis Thanks! I'll try to visit soon.
