    NOTIFICATION SQUAD: Who would win? Ryotaro with the knife or me with the world's hardest food? Let's settle this once and for all.
    We had a blast at Tsukiji market - I'd actually written it off when it moved to Toyosu back in 2018. What I didn't realise was that the outer market (which is the best bit) is still alive and well, and better than ever before. Toyosu is good for the tuna auctions, but not much else. The brand new buildings are shiny and clean, but they lack the atmosphere of Tsukiji's chaotic streets. If you're in Tokyo, make sure to drop by!
    As I mentioned in the video, we did have help behind the scenes from a guide (a guide who wasn't Ryotaro for once), as we wanted to really get down the alleyways and handle the knives used to prepare the tuna. If you want to pretty much do everything we did in this video, you can check out the highly regarded tour here: bit.ly/336bqXE (and yes it does come with plenty of food).

    "its the same as wine, but it doesn't have the same sort of strong flavour as wine, so it's quite a deceptive drink. You can have quite a few cups, and then it suddenly hits you like a truck" - I wish someone warned me about this earlier. I hate the taste of alcohol, and had never drunk before, but when we went to a Japanese bar for a work thing, and they served sake. I got plastered. 🤣😭

    This is a must for any foodie going to Tokyo. One of the highlights of my trip. I've never had the luxury of trying whole grilled squid, oysters and scallops before and it was amazing, cheap enough too. Plenty of deserts as well, I got an ice cream and went back for seconds because I went in the summer, it's fantastic! Definitely worth going as its only up the road from the kabuki theatre in Ginza.

    You know, I've only had sake once before. Maybe a third of a bottle. I was entirely sober after drinking that, but when I was on the train home like 30 minutes later, I really felt it.
    I wasn't drunk by any stretch of the imagination, of course, but before that I didn't notice any effect at all.
