Thanks for yet another ASMR food video; I so enjoy tagging along on your journeys and experiences. You're both so sophisticated, yet charming and kind. I appreciate you so much! ❤
What a nice place to spend a rainy day. Not to mention, sipping Japanese Tea 🍵 and eating Japanese Sweets. What could be better? How about being the only people in the place. Peace and quiet, hot (warm?) tea, tasty treats, out of the rain and in a beautiful setting. Winner! Thanks 🙏🏻 for sharing a rainy day in Japan.
The pancake like sandwich is called dorayaki. It’s also a trend now in Paris. There are different kind of dorayaki,sometimes they eat it with whipped cream for a change 😊 By the way the best time to go to Japan is late Spring late March or first week of April and in autumn where it’s mostly dry🥰Anyway I’m glad you are enjoying even it’s raining 👍☺️I’ve been watching your vlogs since I saw your Vienna vlog and you are one of my favorite vloggers💖
Once again atmosphere sells the story :-). What a great place - I can't think of a better way to spend a rainy hour or so. Thanks for finding the tea house :-). I love the traditional/vintage Japanese style what a treat visual as well as flavor.
As always a very well done video. This is a very excellent food channel. Sam & Audrey are very great ambassadors for travel & all the great foods out there. This is a very outgoing viewer friendly channel as well. Thanks Sam & Audrey for all the great videos you have given us over the years.Keep them coming.
Ive been to Takayama various times, I remember on of my highlights was cycling Higashiyama on a rainy day with my see through umbrella, it was magical. Unfortunately it was before I vlogged
Samuel and Audrey - Travel and Food Videos totally, I don’t know if it would have been then same camera in hand. Sometimes I wonder if vlogging stunts my experience or enhances it!
Ahah all that rain have told you to stop exploring and eat eat eat 😅 Japanese sweets are so unique! So many interesting flavors (beans, matcha flavor, rice..) with low sugar!
Love your video on Evora Portugal .. sitting in Evora here now watching your Japan video !! Keep up with your family and friends .. as well us the your channel subscribers !! Hee hee !!
You guys are like making the best lemonade on a rainy day! Love the modern classical ambience of the tea house. I notice that the lady who brought the sweets for Sam making sure the flower print of the tea cup is facing towards Sam, that's so sweet/Japanese tea ceremony like. The greenish mochi is made out of the starch from the mountain vegetables(warabi), the same veggies that you guys had at the mountain veggie restaurant. I love warabi mochi! The pinkish mochi/jelley texture sweets looked like "uirou" made out of mochiko/grain and sugar. I am loving your Takayama days!
@Cheryl T P- thanks for looking it up. I don’t know the laws or traditions in Japan re cannabis and when she was telling what it was called in the menu and that she didn’t know what it was I was thinking ‘careful with that ‘. I have never been suspicious about japan but I did not know so good to know. I will recognize it for what it is when I go because I am a big fan of tea houses.
OMG. the purple one with pink color are ( Wagashi ) Japanese sweet in Edo era. If you visit japan again. try more wagashi per place. wagashi are sweet dessert in japan per season.
Such a "high tea" experience! So jaw-dropping, "it kind of reset my palate a bit" Or maybe, "it was just dominated by the beans!" I haven't enjoyed this kind of inspired language since "Fish juice in my socks!" Loved it! tc,, guys! Your Fellow Former English Teacher, Colin
Take me to that place, please!! It looks so nice. That pancake .. isn't that Dorayaki ... the snack that Doraemon likes to eat? :) This is definitely a place I would like to visit at least once a week.
By the way I really love your channel. I'm 00% disabled and a huge foodie and I love travel. I can't travel currently and unless my health changes a lot in a positive direction I will not be able to travel so I get to travel and imagine the taste of foods by watching your channel. I watch quite a few food and travel Vloggers and you two are my favorites You Tube food and travel couple. I really miss Audrey on the colabs Samuel makes without Audrey and with other food/travel Vloggers. I still like those colabs but it's definitely missing Audreys sparkle and upbeat cheerfulness. Well, that's all for now. I just wanted you two know I love y'all and I miss Audrey when Samuel colabs without Audrey. Thanks for sharing. 1️⃣💜👸🏻
Hey guys! I'll be heading to Takayama in mid June. Is there somewhere I can see where all these places are? Thanks and thanks for the content. Great work.
I love that sort of food ... and the marijuana leaf didn't go unmissed .... thought you looked a little too content as you left to now "feel" the rain ... enjoy !
Does matcha really taste like bitter (lawn) grass ? That's how someone explained the taste to me. Doesn't sound very good. I like green tea but I've never had matcha green tea 1️⃣💜👸🏻
Depends on the quality, cheap matcha is bitter like a cheap green tea, the better the quality it gets smoother but with still kind of a bitter taste. And it tastes like green tea, that's what it's made of ^^
Plejade ok. Ty for the additional information. I have tea bags that are green tea and I like those but they don't say matcha. My green tea is pretty mild and light in flavor. When I was at Trader Joe's someone told me it was an acquired taste because it was like drinking a bitter green lawn that had been blended up with water. I had already asked to sample some cheese and stuff that visit so I didn't want to ask them to open more items to try that visit. So I've been curious since then. I broke my right arm in s fall and then my hip in another fall after that so I haven't been able to go back yet to try it. Thanks for sharing. 1️⃣💜👸🏻
@@OnePurplePrincess naww thank you for your reply. Well, matcha is made of green tea leaves like the tea, but the leaves are treatened different and then grounded to powder. It's maybe an unusual flavour so that's why they described like that, I think you find it easy in internet shops even samples to try and order so maybe you just give it a try. I like it in so many ways, sure just to drink but the best is like in sweet pancakes, or I make icecream myself, or even in sweetened quark. Tbh it did take a moment I got into it because it was new, but now I'm addicted and I want to put it in everything, even in my oatmeal it's out of control haha :D Ohhnoo, I hope you're well soon and don't break anything anymore. Gosh you hade for sure a difficult time but I hope you got back to your strengh (gnhh my english is bad sorry^^') have a wonderful week my dear ^^/
Plejade Ty Your English is quite good. Better than many Americans I'm sad to admit. I appreciate your input and I will look online. It's gong to be a while before I can get to the regular store. I have a heart condition that slows my healing and progress but I will get there in time 😍. Have a blessed weekend and week. Thanks again for your help and ideas. 1️⃣💜👸🏻
I grew up with Japanese culture and food and the only Japanese sweets that I like are ones that have purin, the rest of them especially with red beans I think are gross.
