15 Course Luxury FISH BBQ & the GREATEST Steak & FRIED RICE in Tokyo Japan

[Music] [Applause] oh my gosh it's running again I just want to say the weather forecast for Tokyo incredibly inaccurate supposed to just be cloudy all day that's coming out hard now this is the don't want try to again into last time there was lying out the door so finally not too bad [Music] this is such a popular woodone shop right now they make all their needles from scratch and people lying out the door before it even opens I got their famous carbonera woodone so on top there's cheese buttered seared pork belly some Min higho spicy Cod roll some going to give this a good mix get the butter all melted there's an eight yolk inside the Udo as well man this is going to be really really rich it smells absolutely incredible this thing is so incredibly rich and cheesy and buttery at the same time it goes down so easily the noodles are absolute perfection I mean this thing they're literally making it fresh in this restaurant right next to me so the texture is just as bouncy and chewy as it can be also every single strand grabs on to that creamy sauce so so well there's a lot of flavor in that pork it's salty it's Smoky there's also a bunch of condiments there's soy sauce there's vinegar roasted sesame seeds I put some chilies in here as [Music] well I think is even better with some heat this bowl went down way too soon this has definitely been the chees I EST richest creamiest carbonera Rood I've ever had in my life there's so much flavor in here this was worth getting rained on the next place I'm going to is this luxury sushi restaurant it's usually really pricey but there's a lunch special that they have that that's only about 1,000 yen so that's what I'm going to get they're fully booked but that's the place I'll list it in my description box below if you want a really really inexpensive sushi meal at a very highend sushi restaurant go for lunch make sure you have a [Music] reservation okay lunch number two I think this is going to be awesome special beef steak [Music] rice this place is really cool when you walk in you can see the kitchen it's all in the middle and the meal is incredibly affordable a medium bowl of uh beef and rice which is already pretty big goes for about 1,200 Yen so like $8 for a bowl of steak and rice like a good size bowl of steak and rice so from what I'm seeing the meat is aged and you can shoose between four different types of rice I got the garlic rice you can also choose how big your steak is so you can get a giant steak if you want to I got more place to go today so I just got a large this is very very exciting the steak is definitely cook on the rear side so onions I got a whole egg some garlic chips underneath is the Garlic rice yeah look at the steak this is a a little below medium rare oh it's so good the beef definitely more on the Ling side but really really tender love the crispy garlic love the refreshing bites of the raw onion the garlic rice 100% the best option the beef is so tender such an incredible beefy flavor I think if you want more flavor in this dish I would recommend their steak and Curry which I see half the people getting that and half the people just doing what I'm doing if you just get garlic rice and beef you're able to taste the nice flavor of the beef much more I'm really glad I got the exra egg go I also got some fresh Cracked [Music] Pepper even better and they don't ask you how you want your beef cooked it's all cooked the same way and these guys definitely know what they're doing I mean don't mess with what works each single piece like I said it's mean so you're going to get more of the beefy flavor but is so so tender I can't believe this is like a $9 $950 bu sticking rice and you really can't beat this value no wonder there's a line outside and yeah 100% worth getting rain on again for this oh wow that place is good that's about as tender as good of a steak you can find for that price unreal oh it's raining harder time to an invest in an umbrella okay I think the next one is here somewhere this is the place right here so this restaurant is called K chahan and pretty much everything has crab inside so I got a crab fried rice as well as an Al rice and this place is jam-packed and everything is cooked again right in front of you it's Smoky but it smells really really so my food came with an order of miso soup and this is snow crap miso soup that crabby flavor is very very present in this miso soup that's delicious eat the crab meat that's nice so this is the fried rice look at this there's fresh crab Meats on top of the rice and above the fresh crab meat is crab meat mixed with the con miso and that's where the flavor is and it's such a beautifully made fried rice too like this like almost every single grain is in place take a nice big spoonful with the crab meat in the Cano the crab meat is so succulent and sweet and the parts that's mixed with the con miso you still get the sweetness from the crab at the same time you're getting so much of the crab concentrate the crab Umami in that bite and that is some of the best natural flavoring in the ocean oh that's so good plus this rice is cooked perfectly the egg is good you can taste a waak it's not overly seasoned it's not even very salty it's just designed so you can still taste that subtle sweetness and that beautiful Umami flavor from the crab this is great so this next dish is the AL rice so you see there's a Mt of light brown Gra surrounding the mound of rice with crab mixed inside the egg is covering the rice and on top of that sits eight crab meat from the legs of the crab get some of the rice some of the egg some of the crab meat wow that egg first of all utter Perfection light lucky little peppering this gravy goes so well with the rice it's very thick Rich a little sweet a little peppery as well the eggs are so soft it literally melts into the rice when you take a bite crab meat is sweet I think they mix some K miso into the gravy as well because there's so much Rich Umami flavor this is absolutely incredible and also each plate of crab rice only about $8 that's cheaper than a value meal even though it's a full house here I got the dishes in about 3 minutes this place delicious value for money definitely worth a visit this place is really interesting so this is called Yoshi Cola so the grandfather of the owner of this place is an expert in traditional medicine so he created his own Cola his own drink from 10 different types of herbs with a recipe it's over 100 years old so you go inside and they fix the the soda for you right there wow it tastes like a very Herby much healthier very lemony Cola but it definitely tastes like a cola really refreshing I bet this is really good for me too and you can buy this either in a bag where they sell the bottles where you can buy the syrup you can take home make it yourself and they also have a venue machine outside so in case this place is closed you can still get a bottle outside pretty good [Music] so dinner tonight is going to be at yakio Ishikawa this is a really unique Omas it's a grilled fish Omas so they bring you different types of fish and they Grill it right in front of you on this Grill 10 courses first dish is cuttlefish with corn soup this beautiful little bowl of soup looks like there's some squash inside too this is really good slightly sweet corn soup that zucchini is very nice and crunchy there's some peas in here as well and little bits of Snappy cuttlefish very light and refresh [Music] [Music] [Music] second dish is really interesting and it's so beautiful this is called a three-color rice bowl and when they first brought it out I was like I only see two colors the third color is the tuna that that they just grilled right in front of me and it's perfectly seared the inside is still beautifully pink and it's sitting on top of iur and oi over sushi rice and this thing is beautiful two golden orange with the iora looking like little Pearls of golden Sunset and then the Pink Tuna sitting on top let's try this first without the tuna jamur in the uni are little bits of popping pure flavor o creamy and sweet let T so fatty this tastes like AI wagu beautifully seared on either side I love that little bitterness from the Char inside is marbled it's fatty it's Rich it melts in your mouth this is so amazingly delicious now take a bite with the tuna and the uni and the Ura it's like the best flavor that could possibly exist under the ocean with just so many different flavors and textures all that sitting on top of just the most wonderful sushi rice so next is um a Sashimi course there's kohada which is a Japanese hearing there's grouper and there's striped Jack take this little soy sauce Wasabi if you want it the kada M I'm a fan of that that's delicious delicious it's a very meaty fish texture has a wonderful chew a little oily that thing's got a lot of flavor next is the Cooper oh bit of a tough fish I think that one's just okay and then striped Jack with some seaweed really tender very buttery my favorite is the kajada though that is so good I love the texture I love the flavor that one's fantastic so next one it's a Abalone and matsutake mushroom simmer together so matsutake mushroom I never had that before that is the most priced Mushroom in Japan it's a very rare wild mushroom and it can sell for um hundreds to tens of thousands of dollars per pound wow that's probably one of the earthiest mushrooms I've ever had also has a Nutty n to it I don't know if I spent thousands of dollars a pound for it but that's a good mushroom wow Abalone is fantastic that's as tender as abalon will ever get than of course it's a sorted grilled fish and they brought out a platter of different fish 1 2 3 four five seven different types of fish first thing that went on the grill soft shell cams from koido I don't think I've ever had this before mind blown by that bite this could be a new obsession for me the clams are cooked very quickly on the grill and they're still moving still alive what they're served to you so that's how fresh they are they are about as tender of a clam as you will ever ever put in your mouth it's super Snappy the grill gives it a such a beautiful Smoky flavor it's so sweet zero brininess in this clam it's out of this world next really thin piece of sore fish with some scallions and radish on top that is an awesome byos sfish it's a very fatty part of the sore fish it's so tender usually sfish not very tender especially grilled that peas melting your mouth and they put a little scallion and radish on there to give it a little bit of acid because that is something melt in your mouth fatty Rich swordfish and ches up with this eight plant salad they brought over oh that was a phenomenal coup pieces of fish next they brought over three little side dishes looks like some greens a little bit of mushroom and I think fish skin mhm really good obviously that's my favorite one that one is not bad you [Music] next two fish on the plate one is grilled grouper with some scallions on top that some tender tender grouple beautiful CH on the outside again that incredible Smoky flavor that balances perfectly with the sweetness of the fish grouper is a very meaty fish with they sear it all the Sid it really traps the juice in so it makes it such a nice tender juicy piece of fish and this is going to be so good this is grilled ororo a giant piece of it oh that so crazy the flavor of that piece of fish on this Grill is pure magic there's so much fat on that fish that thing is absolutely melt in your mouth buttery Rich delicious piece of grilled fish and they add a little bit of scallion or radish on top of the fish just to kind of balance out the orance of it it's perfect it really is it's such a unique experience I never knew something like this existed this is like Yakiniku like seafood Yakiniku [Music] [Music] next one is a sea bass and this went on a grill for just a little bit wow that is a fatty fatty break apart in your mouth make you happy piece of fish and that little bit of t spent on the grill charred up that piece of skin oh that is just absolutely wonderful that might be one of my favorite pieces tonight this next piece is Yellow Tail and again it's just spent a little time on the grill with some greater radish on top of it way more chewy than the sea bash that does have a little bit of a fishy flavor that one's not my favorite especially when I just had the sea bass which just phenomenal that one's probably my least favorite piece of fish tonight I wish I ate that one first [Music] last cut of fish this is tutorial so this is medium fat tuna and lightly grilled is served the Sukiyaki style so with a golden egg yolk wow that is a delicious way to eat this absolutely love how that fat crisp up when it hit the grill a hint of bitterness to balance out the richness of the choral and the Egg just makes it even more rich and creamy and delicious little Sukiyaki sauce in here for a hint of sweetness really brings out the smokiness of the fish I say that's top three for me tonight finally another piece of grer just fried with a piece of lemon on the side that is fried so nicely now this is a great piece of grouper beautifully toasty on the outside with just that magnificent crunch so tender and juicy inside that's so good they served the piece of group that's right attached to the rib so you're getting a lot of collagen in here too that's so good so good so good so send to the last course this is Clay noodles they ask you if you want small medium or large I got large this is the large so don't be afraid to get large M cold clam noodles noodles are really really good the broth is really not seasoned much I think little clam juice and salt not bad very refreshing the noodles are spectacular but Sho that's a chewy [Music] noodle finally for dessert pumpkin pudding huge pumpkin flavor caramelli and some Wong tea this has been an exceptional experience like I said it's kind of like a yakin niku but I think it's better because with yakin niku you get different cuts of steak which more or less taste the same usually all beef this different cuts of fish everything tastes extremely different and it tastes phenomenal food I say solid 9 out of 10 maybe higher it's incredible the grill the smokiness you get every single bite the presentation is perfect this place is something that's truly truly unique in the Japanese barbecue world and again like I've been coming to Japan for a long long time never heard of anything like this so this is 100% worth a try and speaking of barbecue I'm actually going to go get some more all right this place I'm at is a really interesting elator spot so the chef used to live in this house and he turned a whole house into a restaurant so right in front of you you see a bunch of skewers being grow in front of you there's also a ton of other kinds of bar food they're known for their matsun so that's what I'm getting and also I got their five um skew combo which is five different types of skewes and those skewers look ginormous I'm a little nervous right now okay all my food is here this is a lot of food so five skewers plus the matab masab whenever it comes to your table the initial side of it will worry people because it's just giant nor it looks like a Giant Mountain but it is going to shrink the skewers will not so the outside is pork inside is H scallions and this is the Sukiyaki style so there's the egg yolk and the Sukiyaki sauce that was a giant bite of delicious to y pork outside charred beautifully nice and fatty inside it's stuffed full of leaks that tastes so good and the egg yolk and the Sukiyaki sauce I think this is the eggplant Noy mushrooms same delicious toasty pork on the outside I think this must be the cramp that's my favorite one super toasty thin cut of pork on the outside basically a a bacon wrapped alpl with cheese that's incredible little Roots just a little bit of salt it just tastes like a very high quality piece of bacon wrapped around vegetables last one to try I think this is bell pepper with cheese this tastes like a bacon wraps jalapeno popper this is the best one crunchy Smoky cheesy that one has it all my maab it's G down quite a bit you got to make sure um this Cooks thoroughly because you're dealing with intestines here got to make sure it's cooked all the way through masab is one of my favorite things to eat in Japan so it's basically beef large intestines and it's so fatty and nice oh oh so good it's so fatty they put a lot of garlic and chilies in the Bro oh they're super so good wow a ton of Mis on here as well wow wow the leak's good the cabbage is good everything has soaked up that delicious miso flavor from the broth it's so thick and Rich too this is a really fun place first of all they're so nice here really accommodating they do have English menu so don't feel intimidated coming in but all the skewes grow right in front of you it's absolutely delicious all that Porky fat soaks into the vegetables on the inside the masab is good they had
