I'm in #Yokohama, #Japan and I'm going to visit the Chinatown to eat some dumplings. Then I went to try some conveyor belt sushi and of course for dinner, I tried the Japanese rice burger at #McDonald's.
Good morning, I'm in Yokohama right now and just finished filming a collab with the Hachiko district really cool guys
so just took down like a
Massive like fatty a5 beef brisket can't wait to show you guys this video beyond the food channel
Since I'm here like it's like an hour away from Tokyo. I don't want to go back just yet. So let's go to Chinatown
Haven't been there like a year and a half
Probably shouldn't be that crowded right now. It's a weekday
Dumplings
You know the best thing to do after eating some brisket is some soup dumplings
There's tons of these little dumpling and soup dumplings
Fried dumpling shops all along this main strip and I would say they pretty much kind of taste the same
So my recommendation is pick one that has the dumplings that just came out like they're full so you get the hottest ones
Cold dumplings are very sad because nobody loves them
These are some really soupy
Soupy soupy dumplings
So hot too
I love these so much
A little toasty on one side too
Little vinegar is all you need
Super meaty great textured dumplings
These actual soup dumplings are not bad
It's actually quite a bit of soup in here as well for the most soup for your buck definitely these little guys
I mean you puncture it just a little bit and it just floods out
It's like almost no way of eating this without this juice just like
Completely overflowing just I would say this is what I do. Just let it leak out and drink this stuff later
This is definitely a dumpling. You gotta take a sip
Big chunks of meat in here too
So awesome. You just gotta be careful
If you put this in your mouth and you bite down without opening it first and drinking some of the broth
It might get all over your face and burn you. That's what happened the first time I ate it
That was injured that was not fun
So now when I eat this I consider it lunch and also dumpling revenge. You burn me
I eat all your family. This Chinatown is really one of my favorite place to go
Tokyo just to taste at home actually tastes really authentic the noodles and dumplings and
Speaking of noodles this noodle shop is really good. Yangzhou noodle house. They open it says they're open
But I think they're closed ah
So such a shame. It's a guy found a restaurant in the back in Tokyo
I want to hit up but before I go one of my favorite
pastries in
Yokohama this place. It's awesome
This thing is so good
Just amazing sweet custard and fruits
Apple pie and the apple
That's so juicy. Not only sweet, but juicy and crunchy. Ah, this thing with ice cream is even better
I cannot come to Yokohama
And not get one of these
For lunch, I want to go try something that I never had before I figured if I was gonna eat it anywhere
It had to be in Tokyo or Japan somewhere conveyor belt sushi
Yay, I
Never knew how
So fun. This is having food just
Literally go by your face. You can just reach out and grab it. It's like it's like a dream
I used to have this is so cool. So this is the most highly recommended stuff. Okay
So grilled tuna, I definitely want that. Crab
Fluke
This piece is falling apart. This is the king crab loin
Now I don't claim to know much about sushi still kind of a sushi noob, but that's pretty darn good to me
This rice is awesome. I mean praises to the fish but
Rice is great. I wish you guys could smell this right now
That fish touched the tip of my tongue and just vanished and you get this really nice
Like flavor of fat and you taste that more around the back of your tongue, you know
It hits the tip of your tongue and the flavor just drives it all the way back there and the rice actually
Disappears at almost as fast as the fish disappears
Wow
This is the grilled tuna head
There's a hint of sweetness to that
Wow, it's so much smoky flavor to this
The last piece was all about the, this piece was all about the flavor of the fish so incredibly yummy
The fish flavor is clean, the texture is lean
Combine that with just a slight touch of ground ginger
And then give that kiss of wasabi
Really just brings that home to the taste buds, you know
Sorry what I just had was the tuna cheek. This is the tuna head, but I can tell you
There's not a single bad cut of tuna
ever
That's fattier than a sumo match
Man, first the fatty salmon, then the fatty tuna
That's a key word I look for now in sushi, fatty. My lips touched all that yummy oil. It's like fishy lip balm
Doesn't it look prettier now? I'm glistening. It's so cool because they give you free matcha
So you just put some matcha
in your cup
Hot water right here
Make yourself some matcha tea all you want
Sea fluke
That might have been my favorite one
Wish I got everything off this menu
Well, that was amazing
Sea fluke with a little snappiness and a whole lot of meltiness
Man, this thing is both tender and it's got a nice mouthfeel at the same time
Mmm, I love a little bit of sear
I'm only kind of sad because like
There hasn't been a lot of good food on the conveyor belt itself. I've pretty much been ordering from the menu
That's kind of
Takes away from the experience a little bit I think. That tamago keeps appearing
Every couple minutes. See, I feel like these are rejected items. Nobody ever wants it
And then there's that cheesecake. Let me show you. I just keep seeing it. No one ever takes it
Well, I think someone finally cleaned that cheesecake. I haven't seen it in a while
Never mind, there it is. I've seen this cheesecake go in front of my face about 20 times.
I think that's cheesecake. Yeah, that's cheesecake. Like I want it, but I'm thinking like someone must know something I don't and that's why they're not taking it
Yeah, I mean the food was good. I just wish it was more
Conveyor belt centric. There's something else I want to try. So I'm gonna save a little stomach space.
Such a chill day today
Okay, gotta figure out where to go
KFC
Ever since that buffet I came and looked her in the eye. Every time I look at him I can just taste the soggy greasy
chicken
That they serve at the all-you-can-eat buffet
I wanted some dessert. So I figured because McDonald's just came out with a
with a rice burger and a KitKat McFlurry. So I figured I'll go get a rice burger and then a KitKat McFlurry
Sold out. Sold out. McDonald's number two
It's two for two. This KitKat McFlurry is like
Reminds me of when I was looking for the spicy chicken sandwich. This thing actually seemed to be sold out a long time ago
They even had a sticker attached to the picture of the McFlurry
Saying that it was sold out. This might be a whole country wide thing. I give up. I've been out all day
So I'm gonna go back to the Airbnb. I'm gonna get a little rest
And then I'm gonna hit the gym. The gym is all the way in Ginza
So I'll go to Ginza's McDonald's and I'll check it out there. It'd be a good pre-workout snack, you know
Rice burger and a KitKat McFlurry
Yeah, you eat it and then you burn it off and you feel like a sense of accomplishment
It's just to give you guys an idea what my mind's at all the time. In Chinese characters
This says hui hua which means painting. Okay, I
Thought it said hui mian, which means noodles
Because that kind of looks like if you do this, it kind of looks like mian. That's my mind all the time. Like I just
Okay, third McDonald's I've been to
still sold out of the
KitKat
McFlurry, I don't know why this thing is so popular
Just KitKat and ice cream, right? So
Got an idea
I even bought like this Ruby KitKat. We're making our own KitKat McFlurry
Trumpet up KitKats. Check. McDonald's ice cream. Check
KitKat McFlurry, homemade. Sort of, I didn't make the ice cream with the KitKat, but home combined
Kind of get the hype now, this is pretty good
Ruby chocolate KitKat
Little warm in here, so this thing's kind of melting, but a little added fruity flavor
Dare I say, I think my KitKat mixture is better than the one McDonald's serving
Mmm, I think it's delicious
I really do feel like mine's better. A little fruity flavor inside the McFlurry
World difference. It's like eating KitKat McFlurry in a garden. You're in Japan
You got access to all these different flavors, bring different flavors, come to McDonald's, try it out. Isn't KitKat McFlurry like pale compared to let's say
Sake KitKat McFlurry or
Cheesecake KitKat McFlurry, right? Go get some different flavors, go stop by Don Quijote
7-Eleven, get some different flavors, try it out
Do not let McDonald's limited supply of dish stop you. How are you running out of this McDonald's? It's ice cream
Tell your staff to go buy some KitKats and crumple it in, like I don't understand why you're out of this
All right, now let's check out this rice burger business. Got the teriyaki because I feel like with a rice burger
Teriyaki is a pretty good sauce. Oh
That is wet. Oh that is, this is one wet burger. Oh, man
Don't even really know how to approach this and somehow I figured the rice patty would be bigger. That is just
The prettiest looking thing
Mayonnaise. Oh, it's breaking apart. Okay, it doesn't hold up well
You gotta kind of support it like a baby's butt. I mean, this is definitely a messy messy burger
And the bun is not
It's not very stable. So you got to kind of support it a little bit with both hands
Like a, and the sausage patty, it's massive. All right
Flavor's not bad. Just like I thought
Teriyaki sauce, rice
Good combo. Very nice
but the teriyaki sauce with the
Abundance of mayo that's on this thing. That's a little too excessive. I mean you see all that mayonnaise on the bottom. Oh
God, that with that flood of sweet teriyaki sauce
I don't think the mayo and the teriyaki sauce is a bad combo, but it's just a lot. I actually like the rice
It's got a nice chew to it. The chicken. I mean just like one of those breakfast sausages like chicken breakfast sausage things
Can't say it's good. Can't say it's bad
I think overall the flavor is good. The concept's good. A little less mayonnaise and this is a pretty decent sandwich
I mean look rice burger is not new. McDonald's did not invent this. Like Mos Burger's been serving this for so long
Like I remember years years ago in Taiwan Burger King was doing rice burgers. I mean the the rice bun
It's got a better texture, more chewy texture, more substance than a just a kind of fall apart
Regular hamburger bun. I do kind of wish they took more chances in terms of like putting a better patty in here like a
Real piece of chicken, you know, and I don't know why I got this. I just saw it
Sucker for cinnamon buns. I feel like it took a bite of Dubai, you know, just really dry
I guess I can kind of douse it in the cinnamon sauce
That was kind of a mistake on my part. I'm not a bad pre-workout meal. I'm so sad. Tomorrow's my last day here
So every single day I feel like I'm in this place. It's kind of precious, you know
Even eating McDonald's I will treasure this. I did have fun making the KitKat McFlurry though
You really should try that. Anyway guys, I will take you to the gym, but girls gym here. No photos. No camera. No video
Nothing so
Next time. Back in the States maybe. Anyway, thanks for following along with me today
And if you want to know where I am in real time, you want to kind of get a little exclusive content
I do a lot of stories on Instagram, a lot of cool posts. So follow me on Instagram. I need more Instagram followers
I don't I just I
Don't know why I just really like Instagram. All right, gotta go. Good night
