What video?
Youtube.. Oh YouTube
Yay!
What is going on Members of the Barrio
It's Jon coming to you from Osaka
And today.. we're going to be taking an incredible food tour
Of an area called Shinsekai
We're partnering up with Arigato Food Tours
To show you guys this retro neighborhood of Osaka
Which invokes memories of 50 or 60 years ago
We're going to be heading to 5 different spots
I think we're going to be trying some foods that I know I've never even tried before
Adriana I've heard that Osaka is the best food city in Japan
Are you excited to find out if that's true
Yeah I hear that to.
And That's one of the reasons I wanted to come to Osaka, specifically
And Japan
I have a couple of things I want to try..
I'm curious if we're going to try it today or not
This way, which side is my good side?
Both sides man
This is Tal from the Traveling Clatt
One of my favorite YouTube creators
And guess what
He is teaming up with us for a few videos in Osaka
Tal you pumped for this food tour?
I'm so excited
I haven't eaten
And i'm hungry
And i'm ready to taste all the goodies
Shinsekai is one of my favorite spots in Osaka
And throughout our exploration tonight
I hope I can share with you..
Why..
I'm already enjoying this tour because she's talking a lot about history and I think you can mix in history
And food together.. and this neighborhood.. she explained how it was actually modeled
After Paris.. to the point where that tower back there was a mixture of the Arch de Triumph and the Eiffel Tower
Blowing on it , like it's a nintendo yes
Dude honestly Japan has taught me one thing
Is that, that works
That literally works with every electronic device
We've made it to stop number one
We're walking through some local diner looking spot
For i'm not sure what
Basically this sauce is here.. for the people that were here before you
They'll be here, long after you leave
And basically everybody kind of gives me that ughhh look
There's this no double dipping rule
This is better than my English
I'm telling you
I was born to be Japanese
We're going behind the scenes right now
You ready?
We've got some Kushikatsu
Which is beef
Avocado Which is quite unique
And lotus root
So dig in
We've got the beef, Kushikatsu
Which is like the standard.. this is the most well known version of it
We're being filmed on two different vlogs right now
We're going to dip this
Let's get a good shot
First taste
Dip it in the pool man
Dip it in the pool
I love it
Okay
First Kushikatus taste of my life
Oh man that's good
Fried goodness here
The skin is almost like a corn dog. but crispier
The beef is so juicy
And i'm not saying this is the healthiest thing on earth
But with that sauce
One of the best things I've had in Japan so far
No joke
I'm calling this. This is one of the best things I've had so far in Japan
Let's see if that's good like everybody says
Mmm
Mmmm
I want to dip it inside again
But I can't
No double dipping please
I really think the sauce
Whatever it is
The greasy old sauce
Is the missing link here
I'm telling you
That is what makes this so special
Me and Mr. Clatt here
We're leaving stop number 1
What do you think.. I loved the fried goodness of just about everything we tried
Delicious..anything fried works
It's amazing
And I'm just really excited to get some more food in my stomach
Soo excited
So excited
We're about to try.. this mixed Juice
So basically.. this place next door used to be a fruit shop
And with all the fruits that were overripe
Or they didn't look quite right
They would blend it
With some milk
And they invented mixed juice
Actually the first thing I felt was the mandarin
Because I really love mandarin
I was like.. this is like mandarin
Brain freeze, brain freeze, brain freeze.. brain freeze here
Brain freeze
Ok i'm okay
Okay so here we've got.. a tiny vending machine with three little cups of sake
This is the most impressive thing I've ever seen
I've seen beer
I've never seen sake in a vending machine.
I love the bright lights of this neighborhood
As the sun is setting
We are about to go to our third stop
A sushi spot
One thing I've noticed so far is that all the places we've went to
Seem like they haven't changed their decor
In 30 or 40 years
And they're even playing 80s music here
George Michael song
But with a Japanese singer
It's really setting an interesting mood
Epic video bomb in 3,2,1
Flavored Kelp
We've got sushi here with kelp
And mackerel
And it's pressed to make a rectangle
Which is very unique to Osaka
Here we go
Alright here we go
I'm going to try this before it falls apart
Here we go
First bite
That is some of the freshest sushi I've had in a really, really long time
The mackerel is incredible
I don't know what else to say
Mixed with a little bit of soy sauce
Delicious
Their is such a thin layer of fish compared to how much rice their is
So..for a person who doesn't like raw fish
Super easy..
It's delicious
Good bye
We all agreed that we probably would not have walked into this place
Unless we were actually on the tour
That restaurant had a lot of local character
And flavor
And they were very happy to serve us
That was great
We've got.. one more stop to go
I bought one of these with this character on it
For 6 bucks
Final stop Takoyaki
Like you guys in the U.S have the waffle machine
They have this in their houses
Look at this
What is Takoyaki
Essentially they are battered balls with octopus
Inside
Now these ones have got benito flakes on top
Because they are so thin, they're kind of waving
And it looks like they're alive
When you pop it in your mouth.. it's just going to burn your tongue
You want to split it up And let some of the steam out
First
It's the trick
But he says.. it's probably okay now
First bite..
I don't love it to be honest with you
There's something about the taste of octopus .. I just don't like that much
But..I like the fried ball
That's fine
Here we go
I can tell you something guys
If you like octopus
Or seafood
This is something that seems to be delicious
Like really good
But for us
We are not octopus fans
It's hard but it's good
I'm glad I tried it
I would eat it again
It's not something I'd go out of my way
It's not something I would go out of my way for
I'll eat another one but..
We got candy bags for taking the tour !
